While I'm impressed with the Bluey example, the lack of Muffin disappoints me.

First learned of culverts after the 2006 Upstate New York flood wiped out part of I-88

I'm disappointed I only got a bill for $28M, need to work harder on burning money. Seriously though I thought my life flashed before me


Yeah, small timers, I only got $4,4T. How will I finance this?


MMT!


Unfortunately, it's only Amazon that can issue bills backed by that debt, not the GP.


$28m actually seems worse. If I wake to a $100b bill, that’s obviously a mistake. If I wake up to a bill in the millions then my first thought would be “oh no what did I do wrong, this will ruin my life”


I wouldn't calling it learning more and more like "cycling through SoundBlaster DMA and IRQ options until the sound work". Still, there was an intrinsic curiosity that isn't as prevalent.


YOU CAN'T CUT BACK ON FUNDING! YOU WILL REGRET THIS!!


When you put something out there, there's a question of ownership for how people end up using it. - Some think that "if you use it incorrectly, it's your fault" and probably agree with the statement that Palantir is not an evil software and that one must "change the administration". - Some think that "if you use it incorrectly, it's the creator's fault" and then you have safety labels on everything (see Prop 65).

It's a spectrum of risk between the user and the creator. My opinion is that there's enough scientific evidence that social media to show that it has a negative impact on kids and teenagers as their brains are still developing. I think a social media ban on kids is a good thing (similar to a driver's license or age of drinking).


If you deliberately design your platform to be addicting then you can't say people who become addicted are "using it wrong" though.


Normally I don't see people walking down the street staring at their Doritos


I recently started using uuidv5 for ID generation based on a composite key. This allows a more diverse key set for partitioning by UUID


For every example of a bug caused by not using a global variable I’m sure could find 10 caused by a global variable


It’s not about the clinical record; it’s about being able to bill insurance companies without getting the claim rejected. Clinical formats are all over the place (HL7v2, CCDA, FHIR) and the data is garbage. Claim data is clean because you don’t get paid if it’s wrong.

With Epic and Cerner, they offer the full white glove experience plus a reputation for quality billing; plus, they have a larger internal network to pull from for interoperability.
