As someone who made the professional healthcare to tech career crossover, I feel exactly the same way. Email me.
The world has changed. People are tried and sent to prison over video chat, surgeons remotely control surgery.
Telemedicine improves the quality of life for millions of people, allowing them access that they wouldn't have had in the past. It provides decreased morbidity and mortality as a whole.
Quick reminder: everyone is dying. everyone.
Try an SNRI. They have more of the "zap" effects when DC'd.
17.10 was the absolute most buggy software that I have installed from Canonical. I tried it on Dell hardware (+ Apple Hardware, + A VMware VM on X64 + VirtualBox on OSX, etc) that does just fine with Fedora, Arch, Gentoo, and it was constantly prompting me to send error reports, killing processes, etc. I just flipped from using the "latest" vs the LTS versions at home because of this version, specifically.
I have this right now. First in a small mountain town, and now in Longmont, CO, USA. $49.99/mo for 1Gb/1Gb no caps, no extra charges.
I have Fibre to the Home at 1Gb/sec, but so far, they do not support IPv6. That's something interesting for me to look into though, so thank you. I was providing ADS-B flight data to a website, and then I realized that they were posting my MAC, my NAT'd IP, and my GPS location to the world. That L7 will get ya every time.
I have used amwell with great success, recently. I have no affiliation with them, and I am paying them for their services, but my experience was top notch, and I have a PCP through them. I have yet to get my insurance to process automatically, but I just paid with their FSA VISA card and I'm doing an offline bill to submit. Many states REQUIRE covering telemedicine, even for Medicare/Medicaid in some cases.
"Professional Extenders" are everywhere, and it hasn't caused anything to become cheaper. If you show up at an urgent care, just expect that you will be treated by a LPN and a PA or a NP. A Family Practice physician's salary is about comparable to a Sr. Engineer at many tech companies (~160k), and they can have significant malpractice insurance overhead and insane hours. A PA or NP still makes 6 figures, so the "savings" just aren't there.
If you've ever had to attend something like Physical Therapy, you'll see the actual PT (a MS/Doctorate level professional aka DPT) about twice. Once for an eval, and once for a discharge. An "aide" will guide you through all the other exercises, and they make very significantly less than a PT.
The savings are mysteriously gone, even adding lower-salaried professional extenders.
Prescriptions have been available with delivery or mail order service for at least the last ten years. I have worked for at least two private pharmacies (in different states) who offered delivery service, and several of my classmates went to work for the mail-order fill companies as the "stare and compare" pharmacist checker.
The "Caremark/CVS" insurance that I have for prescriptions allows me to go to Target/CVS for covered medications, but I also have the option to mail-order (from them, of course). I also have Aetna Health Insurance just by chance (we have a choice of 3 companies @work).
Amazon is going to buy drugs in major bulk (Walmart, or Mail-order-pharmacy style), and likely will charge low "dispensing fees" (because robots will do most thigs). CVS is looking to be the "other other Walmart" of pharmacies. I have worked (as an intern) in many pharmacies, and I've seen several buyouts. At this point in time, I'm very happy that I made the leap from PharmD to SRE/DevOps about 11 years ago. Pharmacists will be robots in <5 years IMHO.
Where would MAC address capture occur on the network? MACs are local to L2 traffic, so once a frame turns into a packet and is routed, the sMAC of your PC is no longer present in the data. If you're on your home network, this has no impact what so ever.
