In Finland there are already systems for EMRs, where I'm working they were introduced around 2002 or so, and gradually phased in from a purely paper/folder-based system. Moreover, although different districts use different systems (or a few different systems at least), they have to interoperate in exchanging records. As I understand it, there's an initiative to make systems across the EU interoperate, but I'm not directly involved in the EMR stuff anymore and I can't remember the schedule for that.
Now, it may not be a dance on roses, but things aren't in the stone age here, at least.:)
That is a standard, not a default. A default is a common initial setting, e.g. all light switches starting out in the 'off' position when installed (which is a terrible example).
Good point, but that's regarding countries with an AIDS epidemic where the reduced risk of transmission will actually make a difference, i.e. it is not a general recommendation.
This finding appears to apply only to heterosexual transmission, which is the main mode of spread in Africa.
Circumcision is not perfect protection, Fauci stressed. Men who become circumcised must not quit using condoms nor take other risks and circumcision offers no protection from HIV acquired through anal sex or injection drug use, he noted.
Circumcision remains medically slightly beneficial, but only slightly.
No, it's not "slightly medically beneficial", that's rationalization. No medical organization that I know of advocates circumcision for any reason other than the actual medical reasons, i.e. too much foreskin or some other problem. Circumcision is not a substitute for using a condom.
That convention does not change the fact that zero/nothing is a different concept than false. The concept of false is not a number, you cannot count false. Whatever you name zero, it's still Zero: The Concept.
Even the top uber-master of any art should know how the basic tools work. I mean there's a limit to how specialized you can be. I'm a CS student, and I for one am stunned that any graduate could be so inept as to not even be able to wing those questions. Academia may be abstract, but not that much.
I don't think that's the point. This ArseBook of yours would be controlled from a central place, just like every other site out there. That makes a star-shaped network between people that will crash and burn with the core, instead of a spontaneous and arbitrary one.
Identity. If a lot of people identify themselves as Europeans first, it would make sense to call it all a country, but most people don't (in my own obviously limited experience). I'm just saying that in the 27 years I've lived, I've never thought or heard anyone around here seriously think of Europe as a country, other than as a thought experiment, goal, or wishful thinking. I'm not saying it won't become a country at some point though, nor am I making a value judgment.
"Set of countries" is much more realistic, IMHO. Separate but united, sort of.

I find it interesting, then, that orchestras are arranged with the violin sections on the left and lower parts on the right looking from the audience.
It would not be a setting if there were not a choice to be made.
Yes?
Again, "default" is what you get if you choose to not choose.
That's pretty much what I said. Choosing not to choose is the same as accepting the initial setting.
It seems to me the investors might think Steve Jobs is important to the company. Wouldn't that be enough?
That is a standard, not a default. A default is a common initial setting, e.g. all light switches starting out in the 'off' position when installed (which is a terrible example).
But what code does the policy prohibit? Obviously, arbitrary native code is right out, but isn't the C64 emulator a sandbox?
Good point, but that's regarding countries with an AIDS epidemic where the reduced risk of transmission will actually make a difference, i.e. it is not a general recommendation.
There's no ad hominem fallacy, it's just distrust of an organization based on its reputation.
So, you're promoting childbirth to reduce starvation? Interesting.
Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fuck, he'll eat for a lifetime.
It's a modest proposal.
Granted, there are other studies that arrive at opposite conclusions, though I haven't seen any on HIV in particular in quite some time.
Condoms have been proven to work a lot better, in any case.
This finding appears to apply only to heterosexual transmission, which is the main mode of spread in Africa.
Circumcision is not perfect protection, Fauci stressed. Men who become circumcised must not quit using condoms nor take other risks and circumcision offers no protection from HIV acquired through anal sex or injection drug use, he noted.
So we should all speak in relative terms about medical procedures? Wtf?
Circumcision remains medically slightly beneficial, but only slightly.

Is that what liberalism teaches
What the hell does that even mean?
Everyone has heard of it, but how does it apply?
There will not be democracy until the people are ready for it.
Which is oddly democratic..
You gloss over that "set up" part there. Besides, Opera is one of the few companies I trust by name to make good software.
I don't think that's the point. This ArseBook of yours would be controlled from a central place, just like every other site out there. That makes a star-shaped network between people that will crash and burn with the core, instead of a spontaneous and arbitrary one.
Interesting advances in technology come when it's easy, not merely possible to do.
It's a supervolcano if it wears it's underwear on the outside.
Volcanoes do that sometimes. I note that at least Ms. Helens has red panties. Hot!
"Set of countries" is much more realistic, IMHO. Separate but united, sort of.
By the way, many people see Europe as a country to some extent.
"Many" as in "a handful", yes. For normal people, Europe is not a country.
I'd buy one. Because it has geek factor.
