Cory Booker just filibustered for 25h against the social security and medicare/aid cuts.

They’re a lot better in terms of tracking. No white out, backdating, loss in natural disaster. Better privacy as who looks is logged and requires note of reason for a non-provider to look. Tracking helps bill you yes but it can also help fight if records don’t match.

Even if records can’t be directly imported across systems it can be sent a lot faster and easier which is important to efficient, effective care. If you stay within a given hospital/provider system integration works pretty dang well.

Paper records are worse in many ways getting rid of them was a big push of the ACA for a reason. Obama admin did choose implementation before integration at the time but that is a reform to what exists you don’t have to reinvent the wheel so to speak.

The insurance dildo is a mostly separate issue from ehr.

Other shit has been bigger news.

Think that mask dropped a while ago. He used to have a PR/management team that would stop the stupid shit he’d say from becoming public or affecting the actual businesses. He fired them around the Twitter takeover iirc and that’s when we’ve all been able to easily see how stupid and bigoted he actually is.

Elon just sold Twitter to xAI for 33B, Reddit bastards can probably do similar. Some dumbfuck at Google or Microsoft will probably buy it.

Electronic health records when used appropriately are miles better than paper. More than half the article talks about the benefits before noting the two problems that paper does not solve. Which is crossing records from one system to another and the bloat that has been added as different specialties need to input different things. There will always be room for improvement but saying EHRs are a problem fully neglects that they are still a massive improvement.

That’s true too. There will be suffering, electing facists idiots kinda does that. Protecting yourself and your community of non-idiots is the best you can do. Find those vulnerable people and set up a group that can care for them vaccinated people delivering/making food and the like.

Oh yeah, Republicans want to add medical debt back to credit reports.

That’s the point. Show up deportation. Don’t show up anything that points them to you=deportation.

Paid themselves to “look into it” then expanded to one more house than before.

Teams is annoying because even when you don’t use it, it prioritizes itself and opens making it take longer to get to the programs I actually need and use. This is only a few seconds on new computers but can be minutes on older ones. First world problem sure but my computer should run how I want it.

I’ve also never been able to get the web version to work there’s no error code it just doesn’t connect. IT doesn’t know and the Microsoft guy just said to use the app, which goes back to the above. If it’s going to be an app then leave it as an app if you have a web version then maybe it should fucking work.

The friend dropping is a common sentiment not so different from the “get a lawyer, delete Facebook, hit the gym” of relationship advice. That said “get your own mask on before helping others”. Dropping a friendship entirely is often a bit much but if I’m liable to depressive episodes and interacting with a certain friend gets/keeps me in such an episode, I have to help myself first. That may require staying away until my mental health is sufficiently improved or their mannerisms are improved such that interacting doesn’t cause a depressive episode.

About 25,000 coding sequences and a lot more non-coding.

That allows visualization of PCRed product, which is a far cry from whole genome sequencing. You can visualize a target at a time with no sequence info. Using it for sequences would be extremely tedious and require a lot of runs.

Glass used to be washed and reused. It’s a lot more energy (and therefore greenhouse gases) to melt and reform into whatever.

You still have to send it somewhere, at home kits are just about collecting the sample not sequencing it.

Big reason behind how Walmart destroys communities. All the mom&pop stores can’t compete and start going out of business. They either have to move or work at Walmart. Walmart pays shit so even if you wanted to you can’t afford any remaining mom&pop. Then once you can’t even buy at Walmart or try and fight for better pay and conditions, they just fucking leave and everyone is out of work and there’s no stores to take on employees or customers.

There were some hopeful years during reconstruction, lots of black officials before Jim crow and kkk. It didn’t last because presidents after Lincoln abdicated their responsibility of educating the south and preventing voter/elected official intimidation.

Because they also keep capitulating on actual votes. Both of my states supposedly Dem senators voted for the recent CR (Schumer and Gillibrand). Unfortunately NY doesn’t have a recall process.
