physicians only have 10 minutes with their patients. How much time are you taking from them? On the rare chance they are looking to learn more about tech, they'll probably be going to health events where they're practically wined and dined to be there.

What city are you in? There must be a health tech meeting of some sort near you. I live in Austin and I run one with 400 members, but there are 5 others programming meetups all the time. pharma, billers, techs, and nurses shouldn't be forgotten either!

do reporters not use spellcheck anymore? the number of spelling mistakes in that article was ridiculous.

The kids presenting IAD do a pretty good job breaking down the airport for their age! I'm impressed.

but healthtech is doing pretty well!

the EHRs in the vision care space have been neglected even longer. At least Epic's is being worked on.

I was being billed at > $300/hr when I first got out of school at 21 as consultant. 24 would make someone a senior consultant!

Agreed. it is lacking. Where is the stationary washi tape?

No... but we've beamed a scribe into AWS!

Hey! I'm one of those people. I'm building an Ophthalmology EMR. But I do have a question for you at your past job. At Curative were the labs/exams handled on site, or was it partnered with a lab to handle them?

I'm building an EMR right now. Can I ask what sub-surgical field your partner works in?

so you've used google programmable search to make googling better?

Tesla raised 20.4B. Apple has almost 10X more sitting around in cash.

The biggest problem with this argument is that if you live in a larger city, often times their time still equates to my time.

Anecdotally, I've had several friends take time off of work to let the repairman into their home often to reset or swap out the device. It means that they are forced to be without internet for the duration, and personally I've never had a repairman from a big cable company come within the agreed upon appointment window.

It is honestly faster, and more reliable to go to the nearest electronic store in a larger city and buy new hardware than it is to be cancelled on and wait for repairs that may or may not come.

This is true for most NOVA contractors. In 2010-2012, Accenture and KPMG was pretty new to Federal IT Auditing and most of their consultants had never done anything IT related in their lives.

It's ridiculous that accounting and tax firms like Arthur Andersen was able to rise out of Enron's scandal and were able to create catch-all IT divisions and win those contracts from the US government when they had no expertise.

point 11 on part 2: a smooth transition of the global population to 2-3B.

Over how long a time-frame does Dr.Rees expect this to happen? Thanos only killed half the population. Mao only starved ~40M/50M.

He has no imagination for what could be with all the will and imagination of a generation faced with dire results and instead draws bleak resolutions that sound like the aftermath of a WW3.

The data is consistent with most other bootcamps, though. There is a standard for reporting student outcomes here: https://cirr.org/data

Hack Reactor, now Galvanize, was one of the founding organizations of the CIRR, circa 2014: https://www.hackreactor.com/blog/tag/student+outcomes

If you read Animal Farm, there's a reason why Orwell made the pigs the most clever leaders of the farm.

i thought yc funded something like this back in 2011/12 called clerky.

Thats awesome! The debit card solution and 501(c)3 eligibility that hack club presents is genius and so often overlooked in fledgling youth sports and organizations. I hope that ground.work can find a way for fringe sports and teams to also get their organization finances in order as many sports businesses tend to focus only on the main priority sports. (I run an ultimate frisbee organization)

I am all for self-experimentation, however, when it exposes risk to humanity, I think we should tread carefully. In the long run, will these genes or other self-experiments be introduced into the global genome with unintended consequences?

Even though react and angular and vue are different frameworks, they are all modern JS libraries and I would lump that data together instead of keeping javascript so fragmented in the data set.

I know this seems petty, but I cannot see "Get Station" as the url. I continually read "gestation.com", which doesn't have quite the same connotation.

With AOL closing up shop in NOVA, theres a huge real estate gap that Amazon might be over to take over too on top of all the other speculative talk Northern VA already offers. I'm sure FFX County / Loudoun will place an appealing bid.

Very nice. Voter McVoteyFace deserves an upvote.

Ah, Dunning-Kruger at scale; summing up populism as a startup.

Should probably remove famo.us as a resource. They've rebranded a little while ago.
