I’ll shoot: what extra documentation has to be done on an EMR that isn’t necessary on paper?

Has the “standard” been to document X, Y and Z, but providers felt (rightly or wrongly) that documenting those things is unnecessary, so they didn’t, but now they have to and it’s easily auditable?

Is the problem the medium or the implementation?
Baseball is a very local sport, you play the teams nearby you considerably more than you play any other teams. Also, as others mention, they’ll play multiple games in one location.
Instagram is perfectly usable as a website, at least on an iPhone. I guess some features might be missing, but the core stuff is there: browsing, adding photo, filters, stories.
Democracy isn't good, but the alternative isn't to have a dictatorship; it is to not make peoples rights subject to a vote and thus have no need of a government*

*courts, etc yes. Government no.
Singapore does have many positives (ease of forming a business, low crime, low corruption, a cost-effective single-payer healthcare system, good urban planning, taxing car ownership as an externality). I don't see how these go hand-in-hand with authoritarian government.
I have to disagree with your premise. Entrepeneurs who are starting these sorts of companies were often engineers at larger employers and were on teams where originally built these platforms that had become open source and relatively successful while they still worked there. Then they realized they were able to raise funding to start their own company around the software they previously built and then decided to do so. This applies for most of the companies mentioned in the article, where open source software later released by the new companies were the mistakes they had made.
Start emailing people that write papers you like about aging and tell them how you can help their group and ask for a job. You might be surprised. That's pretty much how my boss hires people. I don't work in aging but in cancer research in academia, but I doubt it is that different.

They post regularly Java and Clojure positions.

Apple has gotten into Java since OS X early days, when they weren't sure about the current generation of Mac OS developers being willing to adopt Objective-C.

So there was Cocoa Java Bridge, QT for Java, their own JVM and WebObjects was rewritten in Java.

Even though they got ridden of their Java OS X bindings, WebObjects still powers the Apple Store, for example.
They do. It's rare that there are games across region on close nights. Road trips are usually to a specific region, then the team plays at home a bit.
Side question, would the "right to be forgotten" also entitle you to call your doctor and demand that all your medical records be destroyed?
The problem with this is that a very small minority of patients are that diligent or reliable, for various reasons (dementia, forgetfulness, disinterest, mental illness, low IQ, substance abuse, not realising the information is required, brought in by ambulance unconscious and peri-arrest, etc.).

Here in the UK patients do have responsibility for some records - notably anticoagulation records and maternity / child health records.

I have seen literally one patient present with their anticoagulation record. I have lost count of the number of patients who come to appointments without their maternity notes or child health notes.

Even trying to get an accurate medication history from a patient is near impossible and we end up having to look at past hospital discharge letters, call their GP, or look on shared record systems to try and piece together what they are taking.

I'm all for patients "owning" their records but they must be held in a way that is accessible when needed regardless of human variabilities.
Actually, they do get a cut from "browser apps" in the sense that they are paid by a big search/surveillance-based ad company to make their search engine default in the browser.

And again, they have a huge financial incentive to make the browser as good as possible because it makes the hardware as useful and wonderful as possible, which are currently the two most important factors for the most successful product that our planet has seen yet.

I'm kind of surprised by these 'browser is so bad' comments. Anyone here tried to make a browser before? Anyone make one less buggy than Safari?
> What if we were to have an amendment to the Constitution such that income taxes for each income group would have to be approved by a plebiscite of those actually IN that income group?

Similarly, we should also require that regulations on industry be approved by the regulated industry, and that criminal punishments be ratified by those who are guilty of the specific crime.
well i had a different experience. we dong have a native app, but some of our b2b customers wanted an "app" to use on mobile. The app is responsive so we show them how to add it to homescreen and that's it.
Giving the people freedom of the press was good for the people? Probably. Having a kid with the queen was good for the people? Probably not.

So, was the criticism for giving them freedom of the press? Or for having the kid with the queen? Or was it for using his position as a doctor to put himself in political power in the first place?
The NBA optimizes for this somewhat. Many east coast teams will play all three Texas based teams in a single trip. There are a lot of factors that can get in the way of this, such as concerts, trade shows, or other large events that are booked in large arenas.

For instance, the Spurs are forced to go on 22 day road trip because their home arena is busy hosting the annual San Antonio Stock and Rodeo Show.

There is also a lot of data on team win/loss percentages that I'm sure vegas keeps up on. On average - teams on the 2nd game of a back to back road trip win just 32% of their contests. Also, teams that play one game at home and another on the road the following night only win 37.3% of their contests.
>Tesla subsidized those discounts

How? I'm not trying to instigate something here, but a quick search of this isn't showing anything except a bunch of groaning about how unfair it is that Tesla gets all kinds of tax breaks for its cars because it's the only one selling electric at any kind of scale.
Technically, I am sure it is possible with todays manufacturing, material and 3D printing capabilities etc., but I am thinking the biggest battles Boom faces will be regulatory.

Getting the aircraft certified by every country's aviation body is going to be massive (unless they restrict flights to within the US only, which will basically negate the positives of international supersonic flight).

Then there are the battles against various environmental lobbying groups, like Concorde had to do, who will try to enforce curfews and restrictions on supersonic flights over populated areas.
> Bill Gates and his ilk lobby against any measures that might put some of the country's wealth towards those goals.

Can you elaborate?
Ask HN: Why are there not many successful link centric startups?
Very few companies have been able to make a breakthrough in this area even though the volume of people sending links, saving links is huge. Why is this so?

Many have seen success isolating and focusing the experience of photos, videos, etc. But not links.

Could it be the case that Facebook, Twitter, etc are actually link sharing companies? Or is there something inherently different about the link as a content type?
Ask HN: Is Hadoop Dead?
This is answered in the article. See section 3, "They (probably) were a good investment."
I love the idea of this, but it is so hard for me to wrap my head around. Can never get my mind out of a relational model. Of course for the personal project I am working on I am not sure NoSQL makes sense, but that could just be me not knowing anything other than a relational model. It seems a lot like some functional languages. Just so foreign compared to what I have always known.

This is a very good point, and one I hadn't considered.

It's common knowledge that most people think they're better than average drivers, so we tend to compensate and believe we're no better than the statistical average driver. But yes indeed, most of us in fact are better than average drivers whenever we're doing our best to drive carefully.

> Maybe there is some kind of requirement to inform the appropriate organizations of the passport numbers of any foreigners in your hotel?

Some countries (China and Russia spring to mind) require you to register your lodgings with the police, which the hotel do for you. It seems standard practice to hand over your passport at international hotels.

Israel sometimes has more nefarious reasons than tracking where foreign citizens are

https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/israel/safety-and-s...

A Serious Organised Crime Agency investigation into the misuse of UK passports in the murder of Mahmud al-Mabhuh in Dubai in January 2010 found circumstantial evidence of Israeli involvement in the fraudulent use of British passports. This has raised the possibility that your passport details could be captured for improper uses while your passport is out of your control. The risk applies in particular to passports without biometric security features. Only hand your passport over to others (including Israeli officials) when absolutely necessary.
> courts, etc yes. Government no.

That's like saying “Red, etc., yes, but no colors.”
There's no technical reason that prevents Airbus or Boeing from building a supersonic airliner. The problem is not the supersonic plane itself, that's 70 years old tech: it's the cost of operating one profitably. Supersonic jets are gas-guzzlers while the airline industry is a low-margin industry. If airlines can't turn a supersonic airliner in a money printing machine then there's no business case in building one to begin with.
Caffeine does wonders when taken in a calculated manner. For some time now I restrict myself to at most 3 cups of coffee a week so I do not build tolerance.

I try to plan those cups ahead of time and always receive a very noticeable boost in energy level and concentration from them.

What is a “double” medrec?

And what initial electronic order sets were implemented? Did the organization not just implement (as best as possible) the previously on-paper order sets?

It’s not a perfect approach (you can do things with an online form that you can’t do on paper and vice-versa), but it seems like a good approach to avoid (more) mass confusion on Day1.

Get a very high paying job and then donate your money to research. If you want to get involved with the research then just start giving the money to the researcher you want without strings (no grant or report writing). Then use this as a chance to chat to the researchers about the research.

We can't really do much about ageing until we solve cancer as ageing is the evolutionary original anti-cancer system.
focus on microscopy. if you have an optical engineering degree you could learn how to build a modern microscope using thorlabs components. then find some labs that need a scope person.

you shouldn't expect, with your academic pedigree and work experience, to be able to pick up enough biology to be truly useful for deep discovery. You can help out writing code, but don't expect to be able to design, run, and analyze the results of an experiment. In biology, it takes decades to be able to judge the results (very different from computer science and machine learning).
So, lets map the potential outcomes for commercial supersonic flight:

1. Boom (or some other startup) will deliver by 2025.

2. Boom (or some other startup) will deliver, but later.

3. Boeing (or Airbus) will deliver later.

4. No renewed supersonic commercial flights in our lifetime.

I understand you say 1 is impossible. But is 2 out of the question? is 3 more likely that 4? is 3 more likely than 2?

I don't know enough about Boom and supersonic flight, but I personally don't subscribe to the idea that tomorrow is entirely in the hands of today's established institutions.
If your data backend is over the internet, it doesn't matter if it's a "native app" or "pwa". You can handle appropriate state in most cases. If you're good at it, you can do it at the most atomic level, and should be relatively quick. If you can shard your api/data systems by locality, even better.
Credit Specialist
Hello and Happy New Year everyone my name is Nancy, I want to use this medium to appreciate Ghost for he’s determination in making sure I get a better credit. Nov last year while I made inquiry online for a credible credit repair specialist to help get my credit back to speed and by chance I came across wonderful review about this genius Ghost Virus how he helped so many people out there trying to get there credit resolved and fix their credit in short while. I initially had a score of 480 with late payments; lingering debts bankruptcy, judgment etc that wouldn’t let me qualify for anything. After 8 days when the job was completed my score increased (780) and my credit is looking good with beautiful Tradelines. I’m so grateful and the newest home owner in 2019 thanking (Ghost) you for your, support, and love God bless. Contact him Toady and be happy too (Ghostvirus789@gmail.com: text +1 (205) 418 0498)

Can anyone with a relevant background, a la aerospace engineering, begin to speculate as to how this team could accomplish such lofty goals on what very much seems like a shoestring budget? FTA, there's mention of "efficient aerodynamics, advanced composite materials, and an efficient propulsion system," but that seems to be the general arch of aerospace engineering anyway -- what's the secret to 10x more efficient R&D?
I've never added a PWA to my device. How do you find them? I suppose they don't get added to the store so no way to search for them there. Do they show some popup when you visit their site?

Is there some directory of PWAs?
I love Prosody. It took five minutes to set up and it's been flawlessly running ever since. We use it for internal company talk, pasting code, sending files. If you don't need 1M+ clients it's great.

I also set up an ejabberd instance for a client years ago when Prosody was not a thing but it's more complicated to set up. They changed the config file from Erlang to YAML a while ago but it's still complex. But it's nice it has a web interface to create users and easier to not get bothered about it once it's up and running. Ejabberd can handle a massive number of clients.

I learned ed, and find it is still useful in many situations. For example, if I want to add a line of text to a file from the command line, I just use ed directly. Another example is trying to change a single line in a file. Even in 2019, ed is still a useful piece of software.
The issue wasn't really the attractiveness of the info, so much as the attractiveness of constantly having the info. I personally get that info is sometimes useful ("We can go to the beach tomorrow, let's make sure it isn't going to rain"), and in the abstract, I get that it may be useful more often for some people, but I can't emotionally grasp that it's that useful, that often, for so many people.

It's the issue of competing norms - the weather (or at least, foreknowledge of it) doesn't affect how I dress or my activities for 350+ days of the year, over decades, living in multiple parts of the US, so it's hard to grasp that it does actually impact a notable portion of people. Clearly it does, and I've not questioned that (or at least I didn't intend to question that), but having more people tell me that it really, truly does hasn't changed my emotional incredulity that that is the case.
If you need extreme data points you should look into the Russian Premier League for Football. While sports in the USA use Eastern/Western Conferences to lower travel requirements, the Football leagues enforces 2 matches per teams regardless of location. In the 2017-2018 season the farthest two teams were 5,000+ miles apart! [1]

Well, we live in a society. In theory, it should be possible to define any law we want in order to improve our society. Of course, the rich control the government in the entire world, so I don't expect anything like this to happen (and they also control the press, so most people are convinced of the "goodness" of greed.)
> It's the bureaucrats, who are the real specialists in crafting the details of legislation that are actually relevant.

In my experience, it's often just "interested parties". I'm thinking of multiple cases where political advocacy groups I've worked with have drafted a bill proposal and taken it directly to state-level legislators seeking to have them sponsor it. In every case, they either refused or submitted the bill as-is without modification.

In one case, that means that an Arkansas law was actually drafted by a 16-year-old (me). That one was relatively minor in the grand scheme of things, but still :)

I found omissions to be particularly interesting too.

For example, I once declined to take a shot after the doctor explicitly told me that it would most likely not yield any benefit, given the response I had from other treatments.

The medical record simply shows that I declined the shot, but not that this was upon strong recommendation from the doctor.

This became an issue later when the provider went back to the records and stated "you were offered this shot and declined". It is technically true of course, but context would tell a slightly different story, and would definitely shift more responsibility towards the doctor.

The doctor was probably right to make this recommendation, but the fact that it is not captured in the records makes me uncomfortable.
Not necessarily. Some places segregate psychiatry records from general medical records, and won't send them unless specifically requested.
HN users represent < 1% of the userbase. But people often ask their opinions on tech products, so it is hard to claim whether they matter or not.
On one hand I can see rational reasons for them not allowing it; Apple doesn't control when you push updates to your PWA, so they don't want to give their seal of approval by listing it in the app store.

But on the other hand, it's pretty depressing to give up the dream of instant app updates, by wrapping your shiny PWA in Cordova and promising to never execute external JavaScript.
Actually, we live in quite a dystopian reality. Your only argument is a slippery slope fallacy. I never said that a child should not benefit from their caretakers. Only that they should not inherit economic wealth which they did not produce.
Well, I think if we can impose 70% taxes on the ultra-rich, perhaps we should pass a law that Asians have to pay 50% more than other groups; I believe we still can outvote them.
>In the long run, binocular cameras should be enough.

No they won't. They have all the issues that pure visible light sensors fundamentally have in Earth weather and lighting conditions. There hasn't been much choice for human drivers obviously (though in principle there we could have pushed for better HUD ages ago, and could still make use of AR), but with the switch to computers we can and should do better. It is foolish not to make use of better data input.

>We are an existence proof of that.

Proof of what? Millions of deaths and casualties every single year due to driving? We tolerate it because the benefits are even bigger, and there aren't any other options. It is literally worth mass suffering and death, not to mention economic expense, to gain arbitrary point-to-point mechanized transportation. But that acceptance is purely a relative matter because there is nothing better, as with medical technology standards can and will change once we can improve. There is no reason that self driving cars shouldn't generally be able to see animals (deer, moose etc) in a pitch black night in the fog for example and keep from running into them. Yeah that'd be impossible for us, but that's not a law of physics just a limitation of information input limited purely to the visual spectrum. Using humans as a standard is really foolish given how objectively terrible we are at this.

since many people progress to late 80s and 90s without cancer, it's likely we can increase longevity (not immortality) without addressing cancer as a dependency first. After all, the greatest advances in mortality came from reducing child mortality and addressing infectious diseases that lead to long-term health effects.

As jwz put it, "It hardly seems worth even having a bug system if the frequency of from-scratch rewrites always outstrips the pace of bug fixing. Why not be honest and resign yourself to the fact that version 0.8 is followed by version 0.8, which is then followed by version 0.8?"
At one point recently someone noted on a X Ray that I had hepatitis. I asked my PCP; he said don’t worry, we don’t diagnose that with radiology.

I asked that it be removed.

No can do.

AFAIK I’ll go to the grave with a note from a random radiologist that I have hepatitis.
If they are really a lottery, they are betting it on nobody from Poland taking interest in them, because lotteries in Poland are de-facto state monopoly due to amount of requirements imposed on lottery organizers:

Lottery draws are done in presence of commission including members of state's Commission of games and gambling (Komisja gier i zakładów - KGiZ).

Commission members are named in document describing game's terms and conditions.

Commission records and protocols drawing process, and stores those because lottery participants have unconditional right to request access to them.

Possible fines went into millions of PLN - enough to sink small company and piss off larger one.

I've been working at advertising agency doing lotteries for certain big home brand. The way we did that was paying 3rd party company with ties to KGiZ for organizing those, because it was crazy to try doing it otherwise.
>I'm kind of surprised by these 'browser is so bad' comments. Anyone here tried to make a browser before? Anyone make one less buggy than Safari?

So? By that argument almost nothing can be compared or criticized or discussed. Also, people aren't saying that making a browser is easy or that they can do it better or that Safari didn't do it well. They're saying that Safari did it badly compared to other existing mobile browsers. You don't need to build something to be able to compare it against something else.
