This is true for any health system (labour and technology costs are huge components to health care, even in systems with universal coverage). However, there are also huge and significant costs inherent to any system that doesn’t provide universal coverage (e.g., people delaying care leading to more severe illness costlier to respond to). Private insurance systems also introduce significant cost pressures even for non-profit and publicly funded providers by driving up staffing costs and requiring more support staff to operate.
All this to say, the US doesn’t have a budget problem when it comes to health care - the primary obstacle is the policy challenge of switching to a system that does a better job at delivering care for everyone based on need rather than ability/willingness to pay. Massive cost savings follow when people are kept healthier.
They actually do spend a lot of public dollars on health, it’s just spent into a system that isn’t efficient. Universal access to care drives down costs significantly across the board - instead they have piecemeal coverage and a system with overall costs inflated by administrative staff hired solely to manage insurance billing and delayed treatments.
It’s an interesting area of policy where expanding coverage means lower costs overall.
They already spend a ton of public dollars on health. The problem is that it goes to insurance companies, administrative staff, and the downstream health costs of inadequate early access to care.
The lack of full size HDMI is still pretty disappointing.
Adding my voice to the chorus here… adopt from a rescue!
Nope. Not everything needs to be like Reddit IMO.
No mention of SimpleX?
You wouldn’t have to go back that far to make $$$$. Just go back a week and buy the right stock options.
Where are you from? Gas and electric mowers are the standard everywhere I’ve lived here in Canada.
Technology transfers have also been a large part of China’s strategy, which results in large firms voluntarily transferring IP in exchange for large contracts. It’s unfortunate that in many other places, we’re still doing lowest bidder private contracting plagued by cost overruns.
I’m no drone operator but enjoy viewing drone landscape footage. It’ll be interesting to see whether we’ll see a lot more drone-focused full-frame sensors hitting the market.
Hmm? I don’t work for Sony… I do have an unhealthy amount of camera gear though.
Generally no need for leaks. It seems to be under the same terms as Llama 2.
It’s a model release. You run it locally on your computer without sharing back any data.
That’s the beauty of it! Just like email, it doesn’t really matter which provider you sign up through. It gives you choice.
However, some instances do de-federate from other ones meaning you wouldn’t be able to see any content from communities hosted on them nor anything posted by their users.
That describes all of us in at least a few areas beyond our competencies and interests.
I should probably specify that it does vary by jurisdiction when it comes to massage therapy. We have registered massage therapists here. Some massage therapists might employ some pseudoscience, but there’s solid evidence on the near-term therapeutic benefits of massage. For chiropractic, it’s pretty much entirely based on pseudoscience.
If you need to fix a problem, a physical therapist is the way to go. If you want temporary relief, a massage therapist can be helpful. There’s no good reason to see a chiropractor - and it’s unfortunate that insurance providers (including my own) don’t allow those funds to be spent on actual treatments.
