The overworked doctor symptom, while real, is artificially created. There are plenty of people who want to be (and CAN be) doctors. Let more people be doctors.

the punched in the face expression is strange here. I get it but I also presume that you have never been punched in the face much like you never connected (that's the word you are looking for, also a boxing term) with art.

Very much this. Very funny to see we're back to hardware is still hard.

There isn't a giant leap between the workers and the users. Stop using meta products period.
