So the only people going to the Dunkin's in the office building are office workers. If we don't go back, that Dunkin's could go out of business. Is that something we can really allow on our collective conscience?

constantly comparing themselves to empires.

Good thing empires never fall, right?

From personal experience, the vast majority are practicing out of scope. It would cost them a ton of money in overhead to have a cardiologist deny a claim for cardiology related testing or treatment so they just wing it. In some cases it's not even a physician, it's a nurse, NP or PA.

This is where government needs to step and regulate but we all know that isn't going to happen.

It was made by the creator of ente which is a free (5 GB) open source alternative to Google Photos. There are paid plans for more storage.

The creator was a Google developer who left after he found out Google was helping the US military train drones with AI.

Hey at least it's interesting to watch an empire crumble, right? Right?

Any examples?

A long term care bed at a nursing home costs anywhere between $5500 to $20000 monthly. There are many rich, retired people who would have their finances depleted in a few years with a cost that high.

The average middle class individual would never be able to afford that so the fall back is usually medicaid.

Early to mid mollenial here with the same experience. It all went downhill when Facebook and flip phones with cameras came out ie. around 2006.

Generally the hospital has checks and balances to prevent fraudulent billing (well not in this case, apparently).

My bigger issue with the RVU system is how it promotes sub sub specialization into procedure based specialties which are the antithesis of preventative medicine. The system valuee family medicine doctors the least despite the massive shortage in their services (especially in rural communities).

So, the surgeon that fixes the broken hip gets paid more than the doctor that gets the bone density scan done and starts meds that support bone health. The cardiologist that opens up the blocked vessel gets more than the PCP who takes the time to counsel on athersclerotic cardiovascular disease and controls risk factors medically and with lifestyle.

I'm not saying the surgeon / proceduralist shouldn't get paid more. I'm just saying that when your system incentivizes 'wait for the problem to happen and then fix it' you're going to have some bad health outcomes.

Bill Gates' net worth has grown substantially despite his philanthropy, rising from $126.8 billion in early 2023 to $156 billion in December 2024.

Regarding COVID-19 vaccines, Gates actively opposed patent waivers and influenced Oxford University to privatize its vaccine through AstraZeneca rather than keep it open-source. He pushed for maintaining intellectual property rights through COVAX, despite public funding supporting vaccine development.

Not a good guy by any metric.

Yea exactly! The user sets an interval and then the app sends a push notification saying 'its been x hours since last feeding' or diaper change etc. Ideally can choose ringtone, vibrate or of its just a regular notification and it would be available for specifically recurring activities (feeding, diaper change, sleeping and pumping).

Also an option to record in imperial units (ounces) would be great too!

It appears that the home screen doesn't refresh upon adding an entry also. Have to toggle to a different view and come back for the timer and summary to refresh. Ideally it would update immediately.

Great app! Especially like the timer from last feeding, diaper etc. Would it be possible to institute an alarm / notification after a certain time [set by the user] as a sort of reminder tool?
