A cerimonia de abertura de Londres 2012 teve um bloco dedicado ao NHS. A cerimonia de abertura!
E a opiniao geral das pessoas aqui é que o sistema esta abatido (valeu Thatcher, Major, Blair, Brown, Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss, and Starmer) mas nao ter o servico seria muito, muito pior.

Everybody's got something to hide except for me and my monkey (The Beatles)
Deleted a post about “what’s your least favorite song” because the vibes are bad enough already.
Instead: what’s your favorite song that has a long title, say at least 6 words long?
Mine: “Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town” (Pearl Jam)

How many university administrators can we fire and replace with AI? So that we can reallocate that budget to teaching and research?
It's a whole lot easier than replacing teachers or researchers; AI are bullshit machines, and nothing is a closer approximation of bullshit than strategic visioning.

Muito bom esse artigo. Tem coisas ali que eu ainda não testei, mas quero testar, e outras que eu já uso como jellyfin e immich. Recomendo demais.
Passei os últimos 20 dias trabalhando num artigo sobre como abrir mão dos softwares e serviços das Bigtechs em prol de coisas que são de sua própria responsabilidade ou ao menos serviços menos danosos, e o artigo finalmente ficou pronto.
Tem uma pá de coisa por revisar, mas, quem quiser tá ái.

Correct me if I am wrong, but the Shah regime in Iran was put there by pressure of oil companies by the west in order to avoid the previous government attempt to demand fair prices?
