It just seems unlikely that the FDA and the device manufacturer would be cool with that? Does GE Medical (or whomever) still service the devices when they break?

My company recently started doing something called "L10". It's not bad exactly but it's super structured and I've just never seen a meeting structure system that didn't make most meetings overall worse?

The reasons for the lack of metric adoption in the U.S. are probably more tied to the lack of an effective administrative state (especially from c. 1980 onwards) which I'd really trace back to the multipolar insanity of federalism but, you know: it's all a complex melange of poo poo and I'll just call it "Capitalism" as shorthand?

I never regret re-watching that elevator video. You'd think that spending 2 hours watching something you've already seen would be a waste but it's just like looping TLO Roll Call like 50 times and really: when aren't you doing that?

This or the other "Working in IT is not good, actually" thread has made me realize that I probably do have something like very mild PTSD around phones and I've come to the conclusion that the root is probably the few years working at a high volume help desk (which I eventually got fired from because I was doing hard poo poo rather than 50 password resets a day but the metric graphs didn't really have a "difficulty" variable  ) many years ago.So,  for that. It really helps contextualize the panic at the pit of my stomach whenever a phone rings?
