But who is targeting the lack of pension for many ordinary Canadians?
But who is targeting the lack of pension for many ordinary Canadians?
I guess I’m asking this before I register.
I still don’t get PeerTube. Is it like Lemmy, where signing up to one “platform” gives you access to other platform’s content with the same login? Or is each platform separate and only videos there will be shown?
I understand the optimisation. The hospitals must be happy, but if I were a nurse (or doctor), this would make me nervous.
Any good healthcare professional would still want to look over the results, even if an obvious flag wasn’t raised.
To me, it’s just good practice (as a patient).
Or maybe they still do, and this system is simply a reducency safety check.
I think it can be useful in predicting a diagnosis months/years before a doctor would be able to, since it can analyze data and look for patterns across millions of cases. This would be especially useful in rare diseases, or even something like dementia.
But using it to tell a nurse or doctor that their patient’s white blood counts are “really, really high” after being bitten by an animal is borderline insulting to healthcare professionals.
but a tool that takes away the toil of monitoring
Ok, so Lifelabs posts patient lab results online for them to see. They CLEARLY mark “high” and “low” for items that are out of range (of the norm).
A nurse would quite literally crosscheck 50 blood markers in a matter of seconds, without the need for expensive AI or at a risk of them losing their job/qualifications.
In this specific case, the fever + high WBC would be more than enough for a nurse to know that something was up. It makes me think that adding AI just adds another step.
I’m not saying that the application of AI to detect abnormalities is wasteful, but I do think it’s unnecessary and possibly a negative in the context of basic lab work.
That warning showed the patient’s white blood cell count was “really, really high,” recalled Bell, the clinical nurse educator for the hospital’s general medicine program.
I’m not a doctor, but even an idiot would know when a WBC is “really, really high” and assume infection. I mean, shit, "suffering from a cat bite and a fever, but otherwise appeared fine "… um, a cat bite AND A FEVER… red flag!
“It’s not replacing the nurse at the bedside; it’s actually enhancing your nursing care.”
I would argue that this would make nurses less important, and would make them “lazy” by not giving them opportunities to identify these simple things on a regular basis.
Would a nurse who doesn’t know what a very high WBC entails be paid less? I would think so.
I can see AI/machine learning used in very complex cases where a human HCP would simply not have the number-crunching capability to find a diagnosis, but this was not that case.
Are you saying that to diminish her crime, or to highlight the violations against her by the guards?
Both are still separate issues and should be treated as such.
100%. But this should be completely separate from the fact that she still murdered another human being (by stabbing him to death in a group swarming) and didn’t get nearly enough for the justice system to show that it values human lives.
This malfeasance should punish the guard(s), not reward a murderer.
Make no mistake. I understand exactly the game they are playing.
I would NOT sign a petition like this, even if I agree with most of it.
Because I completely understand that the true motive is to remove flags that support marginalised groups in our country.
But you are correct that they idea of including reasonable points, is exactly to attract reasonable people or to legitimise the rest of it.
our police barracades have the names of banks on them. Its advertising revenue, but to me it looks like “the police are brought to you by…”
Oh god. Like a sports team? LOL
there should be no decorations on municipal crosswalks
You could make an argument that crosswalks should be painted a standard colour with expected markings, since it’s a safety/accessibility issue that that point.
or displaying of flags supporting political, social, or religious movements or commercial entities
The people who put the package together lumped everything into the same category.
Sure, we should NOT have religious flags on our government buildings. By that token, we should remove any and all religion from those buildings and any texts, too. No mention of God, especially.
Commercial entities? Yeah, they don’t belong on government flag poles.
Political? I’d need an example. I would not want to see the flag of various parties on a government building. That’s just inappropriate.
But social movements? They stay. I WANT my local, provincial, and federal governments to show support for marginalized groups. That includes our LGBTQ, indigenous, disabled, visible minorities, etc.
I’m proud to see our local fire and police vehicles with rainbow flag stickers on them.
Separate the hate from the reasonable, and this petition might not seem so ass backwards.
I’ve used plenty of Linux VMs through Windows, so I’m aware of the limitations. I’m not trying to game through a VM, more like accessing some programs that I need for a few minutes at a time (and not even on a daily basis).
Can you share the software you went to use? Maybe there’s a good Linux alternative or someone knows how to get it working in wine.
These are all paid programs that don’t have viable alternatives and/or I actually need to use them.
A few off the top of my head:
I do my best to find alternatives to other software, and prefer to use self-hosted solutions, but the ones above aren’t really easy to replace, so I’d rather just run them in a VM.
I’ve use VMs in windows to run Linux, so I’m aware of the performance hit and possible startup times (but I use snapshots for quick access). I’m not too concerned about that for any of these programs, since I’m only using them from time-to-time.
Bottles didn’t run anything I tried, unfortunately. They seemed to install just fine, but that was about it.
I’m actually pretty happy to be using mostly FOSS apps. The exception are banking or services apps, which I’d never expect to be available as open source.
Because social media amplifies and incentivises minority, hateful views to make it seem like everyone is concerned about these things.
The reality is, it’s the same small group of hateful idiots who are always in the spotlight.
In real life, even in small towns, people either don’t care or they celebrate how far we’ve come as a society.
“A few stakeholders were concerned that the release of the report would result in new legal action (criminal prosecution, citizen revocation, or otherwise) being brought against the individuals named in the report,” a summary of the library’s discussions noted.
Bro, WTF? Are these “stakeholders” also Nazis? Release their names, too.
Jesus Christ, let the Canadian public know who they are, and prosecute them as war criminals. Time does not invalidate what the Nazis did, and any that are still alive should still face the consequences of their actions.
Fortunately, the weapon of choice was a motor vehicle. The driver will be scolded, allowed to drive again in less than 24h, and the victim will likely get blamed for this. /s
Ok, I think I’ll grab another drive and try again over the weekend.
Awesome! Thank you!
