So the big apartment tower moved '1mm to 2mm' after 'big bang' (as did your mother), how serious is this from a safety point of view?

McDeth posted:His sister isn’t a covered entity so no she didn’t violate jack squat Yep. Dexter gets one point for spelling HIPAA right, but minus one point for not recognizing that HIPAA only covers stuff paid for by health insurance—the I in HIPAA. If you pay for a medical test in cash or it’s done for free then it’s not protected.

local privacy laws do prevent government organizations (such as hospitals) releasing personal information, but that's only relevant if the person can be reasonably identified (e.g. by name, address, phone number, email address, date of birth or photograph). 'a truck driver' probably isn't sufficient

The free running and taking risks at heights is just like any other risky sport like motorcycling, base jumping, skydiving or bungee jumping. You're putting all your faith in a machine, or your skills or even a combination of the two. Some people really enjoy pushing the risk envelope as far as they can. At those heights a single mistake will be fatal, but the same can be said of a bungee breaking or a parachute failing to open. The adrenaline hit is worth the risk for some people.

Yeah but. there's a difference between trusting a safety device and having literally no safety device at all

Buildings have anchor points on the roof you can have a winched platform attached to. In countries that give a gently caress about that sort of thing, of course.

It seems pretty natural really. It's spoken December twenty-first, two-thousand eighteen. Who says the twenty-first of December, two-thousand eighteen; or two-thousand eighteen on the twenty-first of December; or two-thousand eighteen in the month of December on the twenty-first day?

It didn't even become the US standard until the 1970s or so, and even then it wasn't formal so much as "welp, all the important papers do it this way now."
