Also, don't underestimate the sheer loving quantity of bio, biochem, synthetic chem, blah blah people that universities are graduating every year. It's like the lawyer thing--the "started out barrister, ended up barista" thread title on the SA law school thread was only slightly tongue-in-cheek.

It's not tongue in cheek at all. The most successful/happiest poster in that thread is the guy running a taco truck.

It is, by most accounts, impossible to get Linkedin to give up your personal information. I just checked and they've got three or four accounts under my name- accounts they set up, on their own, with info their system harvested by scraping the internet. Two of them are sending notices to my email inbox.

I suppose I should delete my LinkedIn account if they even allow me to do that

If you figure out how, I'm pretty sure there's a Macarthur and a Nobel in it for you if you publish the process.

If anyone can find a clean way to link WaPo articles, there's a particularly depressing one about Bitcoin being used by people as a pension investment in Kentucky today.

On the other hand, you can also do that completely wrong and violate all manner of HIPPA stuff.

HIPAA, and fwiw it's way, way easier to do things at that level incorrectly than correctly. "re-identification" of anonymized datasets is also increasingly impossible to stop for a sufficiently motivated actor (and advertisers are highly motivated).

i can't tell you how much i'm looking forward to GDPR Day.

(my company is quite well prepared and p much everyone is on board with the aims of the GDPR, and also our business model is to get our customers to love us so we want them to be happy with us.)

so many people i know are looking forward to sending variants on the GDPR Nightmare Letter to all manner of organisations.

And we're British. We regard bureaucracy as our favourite blood sport.

ooh, this is similar to some HITECH material I worked with in the US several years back, but much...more so. I love this kind of thing, it drives institutions to the brink. I hope it leads to improved standardization and harmoniz-hahahahahahaah

Payday 2's not quite a killer app for VR, but by most accounts it's getting closer.
