Try 70’s nostalgia. I got my first disk drive in the 80’s.

Provided we are talking about taxation not guillotines, it’s that really a problem? In Norway, a doctor doesn’t earn much more than a train ticket seller.

“Why study medicine”, you ask? “Self actualisation.” Is their answer. Remember, University is free in that system, so no student debt.

It could be argued that people are AGI. Are they always trustworthy?

This is true of public services. Society is always making choices which balance the level of service with the cost. If we wanted to save the maximum number of lives, there would be a hospital next to every home. We accept that some people, who could be saved, will die while they wait for an ambulance.

The latest first aid guidelines in Australia say to do EAR, but my employer’s training was to use a non rebreather and oxygen therapy with no breaths. Maybe that’s an advanced resuscitation thing. I think it dropping breaths happened during Covid.

A recent heart attack I was at where I worked on the patient with the ambulance (outside of work) also didn’t do breaths.

I smell the same flavour of bullshit about RedNote that I do/did about Bluesky. The articles are so obviously Astro turfing.

If you can’t stop in your sight distance, you are driving too fast. Doesn’t matter what the maximum speed is. There’s no excusing this.

The whining on facebook about how cyclists should be banned whenever something like this happens does my head in. If you can’t stop your car within sight distance, you are driving too fast. Doesn’t matter if it’s a cyclist or a tree across the road. Slow down!
