I’ve been looking for something like this exact form factor but with a giant battery and usb-c displayport out and PD out to use with a pair of video display glasses like the XReal Pros. Could have real space and weight saving potential, better privacy on plane rides, and a nice large virtual display with better ergonomics to go along with it.
The assertion that physicians are a primary driver of excess US healthcare costs requires evidence.
See here https://www.commonwealthfund.org/publications/issue-briefs/2...
Physician salaries are a driver, but the far bigger portion lies with insurance’s take, and the administrative costs required to respond to insurance shenanigans.
This is not an informed perspective. Anesthesiologists are some of the most highly trained physicians in a hospital.
Human physiology is complicated and on the surface, any job can seem simple if you have no understanding of what is happening. While a large portion of the time, the surgeries go smoothly, sometimes it doesn’t and it can go downhill fast. In that moment, you want an anesthesiologist that can quickly and thoroughly think through a patients medical history, what drugs they’re on at home, the current surgery, variant anatomy, what drugs they’ve given so far, etc to decide on the correct next drug to give or action to take. That takes training and experience.
This could be achieved with VR although I don’t know of anything product doing this now.
Not necessarily. They could run str.lower() on the password input before hashing and saving the hash. Then to verify the password, you just always run str.lower() on the input before calculating the hash.
There's also the idiotic presumption that only their "lovingly handcrafted" speakers could ever provide value. Consider that their speakers are priced beyond what most people would pay and are of presumptuously higher quality than what most people would even care for. It's profoundly egotistical and makes me think that they don't quite understand the space they work in.
