Conflicts with patients and their families. Politicians claiming you are overpaid and your friends and family believing them. Increased responsibilities without increased pay, something experienced nurses really feel.

I'm trying to think of how any of those can be solved with "technology" :-/
The prices are a bit high in my opinion, especially for the screen.

iPhone 12 screen for DIY repair cost: $234 after returning broken screen

iPhone 12 screen repair at the Apple Store: $279

At least batteries are somewhat affordable at $44 after returning the old one.
I have Abloy Protec2 on my front door, with optional hardened plate (product code CH101) protecting it from drilling. The key hole in the plate is just big enough for a key to go through, but not big enough to allow damage to the lock mechanism. They've thought about it.
I self-host for 20+ years, the last 12 years on Hetzner. Did some transactional mailings as well professionally. Not spam, but forum notifications, mailing lists.

2007..2014 were probably the worst. Gmail was chainging often, Microsoft was blocking everyone.

I think self-hosting is easier now than 10 years ago.
Nurses complain about their work conditions, but I don't understand them. They had this massive leverage during the pandemic to discuss improvements. Some people may say "Oh but it is illegal for nurses to strike in country X", but what will governments and companies realistically do if all nurses decide to stop, arrest everyone and let the health system collapse? Not a reasonable option.

There's just something masochist about their profession.
I had a printer that was just spooling up every minute. Was doing some stuff and looked at my power consumption and noticed it.

Super weird, seems like a job didn't finish or something and it was trying to finish printing and just couldn't

I'll agree with you there. I've always appreciated that Elon gives presentations if just for the fact that if he can pull it off, hopefully I can too. I hate public speaking but it gives me hope that some people will still listen. lol
Microsoft is especially notorious for flagging legit emails as spam if they are not from one of the regular providers.
My wife is a PA - here are a few things we've (anecdotally) noticed:

1. A few doctors left practices after they got taken over by a bigger entity and the hoops they had to jump trough weren't worth it, so they retired.

2. The insurance companies - they control EVERYTHING. One thing that happens a lot is that they don't allow her to order an MRI unless she orders an X-Ray first - even if what they're testing for wouldn't show up on an X-Ray. And this slows down the process of diagnosis by days. There are more examples of things like this - things that should be up to the provider, but end up being up to the insurance company (what drug to prescribe or what treatment to pursue first) - it makes no sense (at least from what I hear from her).

No surprise at all. A lot of unnecessary stress (yes, more than enough, even for a pandemic) and the top-down approach of the institutions really broke the trust of the public in many healthcare systems worldwide. I think the sentiment would be the same even if wages would be raised (and in many cases they have been).

Considering it was bothersome for both healthcare workers and the public, in my opinion the friction is more between the healthcare workers and management/government entities (& their policies) rather than "some patient bothered me" cases.
It sounds like your last statistic means that U.S. nurses need to do more work than their counterparts in other countries (to make up for a lack of doctors), which suggests that pay and staffing might well be the problem...
I've always assumed that various Greenevilles, Greenesboros were named after him.
The Wikipedia entry for Greenesboro, North Carolina, says that it is.
Insurance companies.

Everything is controlled by insurance companies. You can’t do anything unless it’s exactly how insurance wants and only for what insurance will pay.

It limits everything, including how every profession can be compensated simply because you can’t easily hire somebody for more than what insurance will pay for their services. You can, but the funds have to come from somewhere.
"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat." (Latin)

became:

"Lauren est similis, lycopersiciSusceptibility rutrum, sed ego te nocere me et vultus realis. Si liber facile adducere ad accedere nervi ministerium." (Latin)

Doing a final pass manually to English:

"Lauren is like, tomato makeup, but i'm hurting you and you look so real. Bring a book if you can easily access the nerve service."
Might be similar for teachers...I know many have cut back hours to part time where they can or are considering leaving. They are having to fill in for staff absenses and are stressed.
I was under the impression that nurses were paid pretty well (generally speaking).
That's pretty good for the battery. Guaranteed to not explode in my phone, and the old battery gets recycled (presumabley)
The software in this space is terrible. The system is designed for admins not practitioners. For example blood pressure entry is odd with two boxes. Note capture is slow due to needing it be typed rather than written. Sharing out of the core system is onerous.

FHIR would be a good idea, but in practice its hard to correlate a patient across the systems. Few hospitals and doctors setup a push notification for when they change a patient's record.

Essentially all of the software needs to be redone with a focus on a centralized record tracking system. The rewrite needs practitioners (all of them, not just Docs, but the lowly CNA too) to drive the requirements. Admins should be included, but not the target of day to day UI.
A family member just quit her nursing job because she refused to learn yet another system. She was great with patients but could not stand the computer systems she had to use.
I'd laugh, but I have this sinking feeling you're right...
E-Mail isn't email.

Provide as MX to your own is impossible if you only have dynamic ip: Most ranges are on spam lists, for good reasons.

Hosting everything else is possible.

I work for a company that makes use of three components: a so called smarthost, that does AV and Spam detection, a newsletter host and groupware server.

Many more combinations are possible.

This was my main experience, and all I did was try to set up the ability to simply send emails to myself (gmail) (and no-one else). Things like: this script crashed, or btrfs scrub finished + scrub results, and similar.

The first thing I tried was just setting up a VM with postfix running on it locally with my residential ISP. I don't even remember what the error was for this scenario, but it was just totally dead in the water. Absolutely zero mail delivery. I think I eventually figured out it's because google defers to spamhaus, and spamhaus says residential IPs = hard no.

That next thing I tried, and what I ended up doing, was writing a docker container that just runs an SSH port forward to jump from my local network to a digitalocean host, which is where another docker container runs postfix. I had done this bit once before, and I tried to just set up DKIM (since DKIM was, to my reading, basically bulletproof - why bother with SPF when you have real cryptographic identity assurance?). This led to weird error messages from google about my IP having a super low reputation. This was something I'd been worried about so I spent a bit of time trying to cycle my IP. But I eventually figured out it was just a bad error message and setting up SPF suddenly made my emails start delivering.

My main ongoing issue is that I had to add all my sending addresses (things my internalhostnamehere@myrealdomain.com) to my contacts in gmail, otherwise there was like a 50% chance they'd just go to spam. I've been running this setup for about a year and it's still a coin toss whether emails will come through fine, or if they'll say "this would've gone to spam but it's in your contacts". When that happens, I check the DKIM and SPF status in "original message" in gmail, and gmail itself says they both passed.

Absurd tbh.

For my "not self-hosted but better than letting google own my digital identity" solution, since I use apple icloud+ or whatever it's called, I set up the SPF stuff to let me send+receive email from my custom domain, so while icloud could still scan my mail, at least if I get banned, I still own the actual domain and could move somewhere else.
No, because software carries copyright, and any law that touches that would be struck down by federal preemption and international treaties. While most of that preemption is specifically America's idea, the US is also chock full of people holding all sorts of base assumptions that copyright and patents are fundamentally good.

This is the country full of people who get angry when China "steals our IP", rather than getting angry that companies were hoarding knowledge from everyone else for profit, or getting angry that China isn't sharing their pirate's booty. Yes, technically, only the agenda of the rich gets passed in the US; but that's mostly because the US has done such a great job of aligning the interests of an enfranchised middle class and rich people that people aren't willing to question copyright at a low enough level to make "software R2R" legislatively viable. We're the country of people who pirate movies and then blame pirates for tanking the sales of those movies.

Anyway, if you want to know what a minimal software R2R bill would look like, it would probably be a copyright exception that allowed distributing unauthorized modifications to software under specific circumstances, probably with the added stipulation that the modifications need to be distributed in a form that cannot be used without a licensed copy of the original software.

That sounds simple enough but you immediately bring on all sorts of related questions if you add such a large gaping hole to the copyright system. Do people who make these fixes get copyright protection, too? In the US, licensed derivative works get a separate copyright that the original author is at risk of infringing upon. Unlicensed derivatives are uncopyrightable; this is why it's legal to pirate fanart[0], because the alternative would be fanworks boxing out the original artist of their own work. If someone fixes software under software R2R, should the original software vendor be allowed to incorporate that fix back into their own work? Should other vendors be able to use that fix and modify it further? Those questions are very critical to answer, and I don't have good answers for them.

FWIW software R2R would also thoroughly break the GPL copyleft, because it relies upon everything I just said about derivative works. The thing is, GPL is also the most friendly software to right-to-repair, specifically because it requires source code disclosure. A badly written software repair exception would not only destroy this, but also give us a repair ecosystem of people with binary-only software patches suing each other for stealing their own work and just recursing back into the same copyright maximalism problem we already have.

[0] Strictly speaking, if you pirate, say, One Piece[1] fanart and sold it on a t-shirt, Shueisha can still sue you. The artist who made the fanart can't - not even if it was Shueisha themselves pirating pirate fanart on t-shirts and selling it.

Comparing the US with OECD isn't proof that pay or staffing aren't part of the problem. Nurses can be underpaid, and still earn more than their peers in other countries.

Also, it looks like the outrageous costs of healthcare in the US don't correlate at all with nurses' wages. If I were a nurse, I would feel demoralised if I was doing a lot of the hard work, yet administrators and middlemen still get the most money.
I've spent a fair amount of time talking with nurses about the problems. I'm related to a bunch of people who are nurses across disciplines (ER, ICU, med/surg, etc). It's been enlightening hearing them talk about the problems...

1. Many new nurses make the same or more and long time nurses. It's frustrating when the nurse in charge with the most experience is making less than new nurses. Some hospitals are even trying to stop nurses from talking about pay.

2. Patients in COVID have become downright mean. Add this to the problems nurses have management and doctors (who are often rude and arrogant) and it's a poor culture. The quality of the environment, from a mental health standpoint, is on the decline.

3. IT systems that they have to use were designed by people who have not talked with the workers who use them. They may have been designed with laws and compliance in mind. Nurses aren't the people who choose or pay for these systems. But, they use them a lot (maybe the most) and it's obvious they weren't taken into account when designing the UX. It's maddening for them.

This one is big for product designers. Often we listen to the people who pay for it and miss out on the people who actually have to use it.

4. Nurses are the catch all for jobs. Not enough aides? Nurses do the work. Food service workers don't want to take food into a patients room... nurses will do it. Not only do they have higher ratios of patients but they fill in the work when other areas have shortages, too. So, the work per patient goes up. Pay doesn't go up, though.
You have measured the apparent power (volt-amperes), not the active power (watts) that you pay for. There can be quite a big difference, especially at standby.
Setting SPF, Dmark, DKIm and having a proper PTR record significantly increases your server acceptance.
Yes, I did. We buy our cars out of a saving account where we put a monthly fee in. I know relatively well what our car costs us and yes, it's a significant amount of money.

Unfortunately, the alternatives are nearly always more expensive (rental) or don't cover all the use cases (train) or both (car sharing, sometimes trains).

The thing is, once you decided on ownership, the cost of doing more with your car is relatively low compared to the alternative (like using the car for grocery shopping instead of buying a cargo bike for the task).
I agree, the $1T figure seems a bit fantastical.
> Unlike Civil Engineering, there's no licensing, no sorts of inspections, no oversight, liability is completepy waived in a 300 page agreement people just click through, etc.

This! I have come to the same conclusion. If you want to construct a building you have to comply with multiple standards and industry regulations that serve as limitations and safeguards that follow your project from the initial idea up to (sometimes) the point of destruction of the constructed object.

In our industry even with the standards that we have they are oftentimes treated as guidelines not rules. Of course there are exceptions but those are just a byproduct(or proof) of the rules themselves.
There are two sides of email: sending and receiving. They use different protocols and often different servers. How about self hosting an IMAP/POP3 server and sending mail through the SMTP server of the registrar for your domain? I didn't investigate the feasibility but I own two domains and I'm sending email for both from the SMTP server of one of them (can't even remember why, so long time passed since it happened.) I receive on their separate POP3 accounts, check with K9 on Android (the original UI version) and download and filter to folders with Thunderbird when I have to.
Have you actually tried to? I've been running my own server for like 3 years now, works fine. You need to actually set up your SPF/DKIM/DMARC/PTR records/etc correctly, but I've never had an issue with my mail getting delivered or being sent to spam.
That was once true but it's no longer a real issue: https://youtu.be/GiYO1TObNz8
The potential problem is that unlike your monitor or a replacement iPhone where the original still has some value, a used up battery has near-zero value and probably less than it costs to ship it back in an individual box (as opposed to dropping it off at a recycling box at your nearest supermarket). This is clearly a bad-faith effort to make stocking up on parts impossible and make the entire process more inconvenient than it needs to be.
Chances are they don’t have parts for older models. That’s what “Just in time” manufacturing is about, and Apple is fairly good at that.

Also, if they had them, chances are you would find the parts too expensive. They would either have to keep a production line running for low quantities of products, build a new one specialized for small production runs, or stock parts for years.

Both have significant costs.

For example, let’s suppose they decide to stock parts, and plan perfectly, so that all parts can be sold over a period of 10 years. On average, that’s five years between spending money on producing the part and getting money back on selling it. That likely warrants at least a 25% price increase.

Unfortunately, I don’t think there’s a business for offering electronic parts in the long-term (old timer cars are a different case, as many parts can be made almost by hand, and customers are willing to pay good money for them)
seems great, more ram, a single ram module, until you realize that is a significant and expensive single point of failure.

add the fact that it is not even a standard SODIMM but a custom design that would be very difficult to order except from DELL or other specialist RAM providers and the prospect of this SPOF seems less and less attractive
In all fairness, I still don't see why we need big players in the podcast market to begin with. A podcast can be as easy as MP3 files and an RSS file pointing to them - the whole "podcasting webapp" thing that people add on top of it only sets up fences and gates, much like "social media" killed and quasi-monopolized private web content production from personal homepages to Facebook.
Companies are legally considered persons, hence their speech is protected. This is consistent with individual sovereignty. If people are wards of the State, then the State would have the responsibility to police "harmful" speech; advocating untrained people to ask their doctor for a specific medication could be considered harmful speech (since apparently only two countries in the world allow it, and not even the US before the 70s-ish, apparently).
Yeah I'll be more impressed (concerned?) when one of these nations declares Monero or some other explicitly privacy-oriented coin as their new currency.
So a new wave of people can see how unusuable it is. I guess I'm not shocked that Mastodon has improved so little since I joined 6 years ago.

- The very first instance I joined within a few weeks of launch stopped existing within a year

- Maintainers of instances got into weird internet fights and started banning entire instances

- DMs can be read by practically anyone

- in 2022, still zero discovery

- in 2022, fairly poor UX on a variety of web UIs, terrible UX on mobile clients

Mastodon really isn't worth your time unless you prioritize true decentralization. Unfortunately that appears to work against the concept of "community" and good software design.
One might wonder how Predictive Processing/Coding works when the "cortex" is empty (i.e., at birth). I don't know if this is just armchair neuroscience wrapped in a bunch of mathematical flourishes.
Yes, it's great to experience the 10x or 100x developer syndrome sometimes.

Using Clojure changed my life somewhat, as at some point I rewrote 2000 lines of C++ (to handle splitting and coalescing NAESB cycle pipeline nominations) in about 27 lines of pattern-matching Clojure, and just no one, no one would take it seriously. A usable UI in Swing to manage it wasn't much more, and was cross-platform. Not a fun experience overall, I ended up quitting that company, doing iPhone dev for a bit, then moved back into G&G.

Other than that rewrite experience, I just used Clojure like I used to use Perl. Easy to bang something out in, and performant native Java libraries for things you might not expect, like low-level SQL Server (2005 at the time!) and Oracle (8 at the time) drivers.

I'm back mainly as a C++ developer now in visualization and HPC.
That is oddly poetic.
Yeah, having trouble figuring out why I would want to use this tool. What problem is it trying to solve? How does it differentiate itself from other tools out there? I just get a list of features and a tiny video.
Nurses are paid well, relative to the average American salary. I don't think they're paid particularly well relative to the job's lifestyle requirements and latent stress levels, especially during a pandemic.

Looking at my area (NYC), I'd have to take over a 50% pay cut from my engineering job to be "paid well" as a nurse. And I suspect my job is a lot less stressful.
In the 20 years since I've graduated college, the longest I've had the same PCP is 3 years, about half of the remainder I had for 2 years, and the rest I only saw once before they left and I had to change again. Even if they do stay, they have to see so many patients (~1000 per PCP is what I've heard) that they won't remember anything about me, and will be no better at treating me than a doctor pulled at random.

For people with chronic conditions a PCP makes sense, for the rest of us it is just another pointless loop you have to jump through.
Close rates are better because a captive customer is at a severe disadvantage to the psychological tactics used in sales.
This is missing the web component based frameworks like Stencil and Lit. Without those we’re missing a big part of the moment to framework-agnostic components and design systems and assembling these to build apps.
I "sort of" hosted my own email using Sendgrid API free tier to send and webhook to receive, and a custom client in a Python MPA. I was chuffed I wasn't paying 5 a month for GSuite.

I looked later at, and set up, https://mailinabox.email/ and that worked fine too.

I'm not sure about all the cant, it's definitely possible and I never had an issue with deliverability. I had no idea what I was doing but I made sure I got all the right dkim secret and signing keys or whatever that was required set up "extra special like" for both solutions.

I was not sending mail merges though so maybe that would have thrown things off I don't know.
I would expect robots to replace physicians before nurses for the same reason I'd expect them to replace architects before plumbers.
