Freedland in the G seems to have grasped some of the problem. Note the NHS is talking about more "AI" to stop people talking to them

Conversations about the end of life don't have to be tragic and sad. There can be laughter. There can be the relief of knowing that legal documents exist. Talk to your loved ones.

Had a cold this week and spotted this pair on my desk. Good reminder of a design choice to watch out for in healthcare software. Sometimes controls with different jobs should look similar for familiarity and consistency, but other times they should look different for safety.

Last month a US friend living in the UK told me how he felt the first time he called 999 here. He almost couldn't get in the ambulance, he said; nobody can afford that.
I've worked in NHS hospitals my whole career. Almost nothing in the Darzi report is unfamiliar, but reading it made me so sad.

I used the "dual time" mode on my ancient digital watch recently, and apparently you can set it to an arbitrary *date*, not just a time.
I suppose it's the easiest way to behave correctly across midnight, but I'd much rather imagine it was designed for a future where I have a DeLorean... 1/2
