HELL, in Silicon Valley a realtor could manage that with a single home sale.
Now home sales are a pretty trivial thing. But there are far more interesting (life saving) activities you would discourage with your communist nonsense.
You're probably sabotaging your own cubicle dweller corporate job with that kind of nonsense.
A million dollars isn't what it used to be. Nobody on this site should be impressed by that amount of money. 60 years of inflation have made it a much less impressive figure than you make it out to be.
This could appeal to anyone that doesn't want to set foot in Walmart (et al) for whatever reason.
This isn't any more "fetish" material than a any delivery service including normal Amazon.
This certainly beats needing to deal with crowds of idiots that view grocery shopping as entertainment and bring their whole families along and clutter the whole place up.
If you have a set shopping list, it's much less bother.
> Oh sure nobody puts their shitty never-updated NAS naked on the internet with no firewall.
You would have to kind of have to go out of you way to do that actually. You can't just plug it into the home network. You have to go to where your router physically is and manually wire it up upstream of your firewall.
I would likely get a routable IP address instead of a local non-routable one and possibly not talk to you own internal network very well.
Some errors are actually gross incompetence and the offending party needs to lose his license.
"Perfection" is not required. Some degree of competence is. Any doctor should be better than a random layman. Any new treatment should be superior to alternatives. That goes for the schmuck pretending to be a physician.
> if you're unlucky enough to be admitted into a hospital there
It's much easier than anywhere else. All of that money we "waste" means we have more capacity. Because of of a Republican president, hospiatls have to take you for life threatening conditions regardless of your ability to pay.
She had to use this one doctor but insurance still didn't pay for it.
Sounds like she could have just insisted on a better doctor if she was paying for it herself. Probably could have negotiated a cash rate comparable to the insurance discount.
These days, there are entire surgical centers that just take the "out of pocket" amount. You end up paying about the same as you would otherwise.
Even in the US, where things can be quite lucrative, you would be an idiot to get into it just for the money. It's an unbelievable grind that would take the most macho workaholic in Silicon Valley and spit him out into little pieces.
If you've never asked a doctor about this and let him rant, you really have no idea.
Those few "domain experts" are the only ones with enough of a clue. The fact that this is the case is precisely the sort of problem these systems are trying to solve.
Your average doctor doesn't have the breadth of knowledge to handle every obscure diagnosis. Bridging that knowledge gap is really the value of an overpriced, overhyped version of pubmed.
The current training regimen is part of the problem.
You must be joking. Even well trained nurses will go to pieces over situations that are clearly not a problem. They simply don't have sufficient knowledge.
The nurses that don't do this are already fulfilling the role of quasi-doctor and they are nearly as well trained as one.
Your average nurse has enough trouble with basic nursing duties without trying to pretend to be a doctor.
Yeah. You poor victim. Being forced to pay a highly trained and educated professional the same as what you might pay for mindless luxuries or consumer goods.
Basic medical care is only "expensive" if you're on food stamps.
It's a user controlled format that allows for the preservation of works that even the publisher wants suppressed. There are a number of things that simply aren't available from streaming services. Some publishers/services like to "expire" things or "put them in the vault".
The only reason I would ever need a 3rd party sub file is if the original publisher was too cheap to include one or too incompetent to include a good one.
You sound like someone with an MBA that's never been in the trenches and who's only contribution to the field is to generate the aforementioned absurd deadlines.

Except nobody actually starves in the streets. That's just hysterical nonsense meant to drive a particular political agenda.
Treating adults as wards of the state like they can't manage their own lives should not be the DEFAULT.
A medicore realtor could manage that.

So I fly my Jeston's space car to the grocery then?
I'd rather just drive my truck to Walmart or Safeway.

That's not likely to happen by accident.
The operative word in your screed is WHEN.
Have fun waiting.
I BUY the shows I like.
If the rest burn down in a giant cataclysm then I am fine with that.
We didn't cut the cord to be cheap. We cut the cord to avoid subsidizing crap we despise.
Cooperation in attacking other species and having them for dinner.
Yeah, because what they intend to do once you hire them is COMPLETELY irrelevant.
Exercise is certainly important in counteracting the body's inclination to lower your metabolic rate to account for a sudden decrease in intake.
Although extra energy burned during exercise is a relatively small amount compared to what kind of calorie deficit you need in order to lose weight.
This is probably true of any fitness device that claims to track calories. The new shiny shiny is no exception.
Not sure what place this anti-Republican political propaganda has on a tech news site.
This is not the Vegas hospitality Union.

By that definition, everyone that dies of cancer while being under treatment would be counted as an error.

Lay off the media narrative.
Interesting story.

A user controlled format avoids any of that.

Pretty much.
