Find where those people are. E.g. popular healthcare forums, maybe Facebook groups, etc. Go to healthcare events in person, all those people will be there to chat.

I've had luck in another field, finding a very popular forum online that those in the field used. I simply introduced myself and offered to do IT work on their offices as a chance to meet people and learn more about the industry. It worked wonders.

So in your logic anyone can say whatever they like and there is no control at all, so lies can spread by malicious actors. I disagree and value this minimal control when exercised properly with checks, which is the case in europe

The Iranian government was already known to be terrible to its people. The Saudis ordering an assassination _abroad, using their embassy, in such a violent way on a dissident_ made a lot of people aware of the problem that was the new Saudi regime which had some Western alignment. It’s not that this death was more important, it’s just revealed a big change in Saudi Arabia

It's not what you're saying but it feels a bit unrelated in that it doesn't mean that it is not useful for Google to index tweets. More likely than one wanting to find a specific tweet, is one wanting an answer or pages related to a query where one does not care about where the result is hosted, and I would rather not search across several sites separately.

What release version was that? I started experiencing issues in 29, but has been rock solid otherwise.

OP here. I can relate to this on other domains. But maybe in some cases Lego-like app delivery is enough? In my case I really mostly want to do simple static sites now (and build up experience to make more complex apps soon), the reusable components of React and the static site generation means one can work with a limited subset of JS and do _something_. Not aiming to be a specialised Frontend dev.

It's hard to do a compromise when needing to know other parts of the stack (backend, DS, devops). Perhaps in several scenarios one can be happy with some Lego-like apps (pareto rule) and hire specialised frontend devs when needed?

Good point. Although an OSS maintainer can be strict and refuse contribs on features they don't want to support. And by breaking down Nuclide, some individual packages like the Python debugger etc, probably can be very well defined and have a significant overlap between what they (Facebook) and other companies want, without much room for deviation. As opposed to say the general VCS support (they mostly want Mercurial that Facebook uses internally, whereas most outside users use git).

It still needs your requisite that contribs are of high quality.

A shame, in an ideal world there would be the benefit of outside contributions that made less internal work needed, so overall would be a win for Facebook. But probably this is related to Atom itself being taken over by VSCode, the number of users (and maybe contributors) appears to be going down. I wonder if Atom Xray will ever come out https://github.com/atom/xray
