I looked it up just because it’s one of those “yeah that totally happened a few years ago” thing and that incident occurred in 2009.

I had grand jury duty recently and god drat the authoritarian fucks that made up the rest of the jury really pissed me off. They all just wanted to send every single thing to trial.

super loving exploitative to check whether the dumb rear end in a top hat was even using his lifesaving device. thats right out of the jungle yeah

That's what your doctor checks on the SD card when you visit. Absolutely no reason for it to be sent anywhere wirelessly. Also no reason for you to get charged 2400 bucks for a 900 dollar machine. insurers make cpap poo poo more expensive thus making more people likely to stop using them all together.

you cant just tell an american that using the cpap is really important and they might die if they dont and if they can't use it then please come back to find something else to keep them alive. gotta be money involved or nobody will care. chuck that poo poo in the closet, sell it at a yard sale for five bucks, die in their sleep three years later cause they stopped breathing and didnt start again

so you assume the bad faith acting goes in only one direction. you're one of those huh?

how is it the insurer’s fault that your local DME provider is charging $250 for something available on CPAP.com for $75

because they force me to use that provider. they literally won't cover your order from cpap.com

wife works in advertising can confirm


she told me she’s run facebook reports days after a campaign is done and they’ve failed to meet metrics but then magically when it’s time to present to clients facebook comes back with the right numbers. everyone knows they’re getting grifted but won’t do anything about it because then their job doesn’t exist.

after all the discussions in this thread related to google/fb/amazon/whatever other bullshit startup, people itt still use all their products every day from google search up to and including internet connected door locks and alexas (to set timers in the kitchen)

why would you ever believe the general public will give a flying gently caress

the minimum that will happen is that everyone will just make up yet another excuse as to why they did not care that much about their privacy, or argue that since abacuses and intel cpus both use numbers, this really means you actually never had any

still using facebook :negative:

no alexa’s though :unsmith:

one thing that always killed me was formal proofs. we were exposed to them a little bit in high school geometry, but aside from that they were ignored. all of the sudden in university they were everywhere. it's like being given a 5 minute lesson on how not to drown and then being thrown into the deep end of the pool. you know just enough to barely keep your head above water, but that's it

to this day it's hard for me to see a paper full of greek alphabet soup and not immediately give up and skip to the 10 line practical implementation at the end

This is why the Skiena algo book is useless to me. I don't remember any of the proofs he writes about and then I'm just lost.
