I mean deep down my biggest issue with for-profit health insurance is that it just seems crushingly inefficient like look at all that money that clearly didn't need to be spent on it, just look at it e: I know I'm seeing a very different inefficiency in the spending here than the one he's talking about though

The real in-efficiency seems to be that you are alive and polluting Peter Theil's billionaire existence with your petty concerns of food, shelter and safety.

I got hit by a car and went to physical therapy for months and they billed the driver's insurance a low 4 figure number for the care (like this was their opening bid). Kaiser basically runs like a single payer socialized system except that it is run by a private entity. They do have some issues in some higher complexity areas like transplants though.

I got to spend the next two days walking him to the bathroom to vomit and giving him more percocet for the blinding pain before they'd do surgery. Also if you need mental health anything from them, hope you don't plan on seeing the same doctor more than once or any doctor more than 6 times in a year or getting treatment that's not medication decided on by reading a chart. And never ever leave California cause good luck getting reimbursed if you do and get hurt. I may have a more negative opinion of Kaiser than you.

My psych experience with kaiser has been OK, but I just have good ol' vanilla clinical depression for them to treat I went through like CBT group series and they have a lot of drop in group stuff as well, plus I have the option to see a psychologist on a somewhat regular basis if I wanted to The only really annoying thing was the person that served as like my bridge between the medical and psych services moved on in less than a year Granted I guess this could vary a lot by region

AirBnB knuckles under to San Franciscoquote:Airbnb now says it is willing to provide all local hosts’ information as part of a mandatory registration system it would craft with the city. Arsenic Lupin fucked around with this message at 17:56 on Nov 14, 2016 |

Have we already addressed Uber's attempt to recruit devs by asking people in the target demographic (which I think is just geographic) programming questions while they are on rides? Is "not prone to carsickness" a qualification for Uber devs?

Yeah, I agree. http://www.businessinsider.com/uber-recruiting-engineers-through-in-app-coding-test-2016-3 quote:Uber insists that it is not using individual information to identify recruits, but that it is just identifying geographic areas where tech jobs are concentrated to find candidates.
