Arven posted:They are a perfect shitstorm of out of date technology and end users that think they're smarter than IT. They're also just big lucrative targets. This can not be stressed enough. Doctors frequently have an outside opinion of their ability to think critically in any situation that isn't their specialty. So many times as tech support you'd call someone "mister" and listen to a 5 minute rant about how they are "Doctor" and the whole time you're just trying to get them to swap cables on their router so their poo poo works.

We had a client that got compromised because the Doctor plugged in a Wifi/Router combo into the network that proceeded to get popped.

Don’t forget the administrations are usually full of MBAs that somehow manage to be worse at management than doctors with no management training. Gotta cut all costs and time spent with patients, that’s just not profitable.

Easiest way. This is terrifying. There may (will) be more deaths because of this. Meanwhile, in cyber news: Tyler Technologies' CEO dumped sold $2.7 million in shares shortly before informing clients of the hack. https://www.gurufocus.com/news/1236...033da5461e60141 There will be more news on that front coming Wednesday.

Internet Wizard posted:Don’t forget the administrations are usually full of MBAs that somehow manage to be worse at management than doctors with no management training. The for-profit, in-patient psychiatric hospital I did my internship at had a CEO who only had a bachelor's and was a young mid-30s guy. He didn't bother coming to our orientation and when I finally saw him he looked exactly like I expect of an empty suit (slacks and a button-down). Nothing I saw ever rose to the level of reporting for anything professionally but that place had low morale, burnt-out staff, and at many times I did not feel like we were providing any therapeutic value to the patients.

PookBear posted:how do hospitals keep getting hit by ransomware? why is poo poo connected to the internet? Partially so that patient data records and can be shared between different places, which (in a better world where poo poo was competent and not constantly under the for-profit cutting knife) would be useful and good.

German culture covets doctorates in strange ways. quote:Germans place a greater premium on doctorates than Americans do as marks of distinction and erudition. According to the Web site Research in Germany, about 25,000 Germans earn doctorates each year, the most in Europe and about twice the per capita rate of the United States. quote:For the plagiarism scalp hunters, the abundance of titles provides what in military circles is known as a target-rich environment, and digging up academic deception by politicians has become an unlikely political blood sport.

Prof. Dr. Dr. My Grandpa Lufthansa has got him covered: quote:Many jobs require such degrees in Germany, where, as is not the case in America, calling oneself doctor for having completed a thesis in, say, political science or art history, is not embarrassing but normal, even when filling out Lufthansa’s online booking forms. (The airline generously provides three levels of academic achievement for its overachieving countrymen: doctor, professor and professor doctor, skipping the extremely rare but not unheard-of German mouthful Herr Professor Doctor Doctor).

I was looking to short it today and it went up a third of a percent. Market doesn't care, my best guess is it's government contracts so who gives a gently caress, they aren't losing that money any time soon.

I was working for a college that had a fellowship with the local hospital system, but from what I observed they're still (badly paid unless you're a doctor) regular employees. Nurse unions are hanging on by a thread.

I have a handful of Armenian friends (one a former dissident who was imprisoned in Turkey, most of them Armenian genocide scholars) and there is a fair bit of worry about turkey using this as a set up to do a little regional ethnic cleansing. That fighter pilot should have pulled the trigger. Coward.

Kentucky tried to get rid of their exposure in the Breonna Taylor case and the Grand Jury is starting to make noises like they're not going to let them get away with it. https://twitter.com/radleybalko/status/1310725296954499073 https://twitter.com/JuryReporter/status/1310719532240113664 The whole thing continues to stink.

The jury was never given the option of charging anyone for shooting Breonna. The AG lied and said the jury found no reason to charge them. He then stretched this lie further by saying that the grand jury agreed with the AG that the officers were justified in their shooting, which they never did. If random juror didn't speak up and say hey that's a lie we would have never known. This is criminal thug poo poo. Pryor on Fire fucked around with this message at 12:15 on Sep 29, 2020 |
