Trampolines are one of the top avoidable causes of ER visits.

Except that in the US, if you're cruising in the right lane then every time there's an exit it will actively steer you towards the concrete median between the lane and the exit. I don't understand how this feature was signed off on. The risks outweigh the benefits, in my opinion.

Stocks generally rise with inflation, whereas bonds continue paying out the same nominal amount, which buys you less over time.

As a retiree I'm 50/45/5 in stocks/bonds/cash, having opted for a conservative portfolio. The stocks are the only reason I haven't lost buying power. But the bonds have performed so poorly that I've barely kept up with inflation despite the amazing bull run in stocks.

A negative Tryptase blood test doesn't mean you don't have it, it could just be that you're not having an active flare-up at the time. So they also prescribe high doses of H1 and H2 blockers and then you report whether symptoms have improved across 2 or more organ systems after a few weeks.

Not only did they store sensitive data about me, it also included personal data about 2 random Toyota owners who were incorrectly linked to my email address. I could see their full names, phone numbers, home addresses, details about their cars and every interaction they'd had with their dealers. It is a goldmine for a bad actor.

And this is despite me not signing up for "Connected Services", because Toyota/Lexus's privacy notice says they too may sell your location and driving behavior to third parties including insurance companies if you enable features like Emergency SOS.

And yes, there is plenty of incentive to keep things out of PCI scope. I'd say that is PCI working as intended. Why would you want a larger attack surface that touches your credit card data?

They also asked for proof of system-enforced processes (e.g. GitHub branch protection rules and the setting for enforcing peer review for each change) which were basically proof of consistency.

Mars could make for an interesting prison, though. Like the Australia of two centuries ago. If nobody volunteers to live there I wouldn't put it past Musk to meet his target that way.

If they dispatch you to an institution you could lose your job just when you need money to pay for the bills you'll be sent.

With some careers, like being a pilot, you'd never be be to find another job.

You'd lose your ability to take out life insurance (even if it was a short temporary depression that you got over, like a side effect of a medication, the life insurance companies won't care.)

Or the institution's records could be hacked and you'll live in fear of your friends and family finding out.. which could cause rebound suicidal ideation...

There is no way I would ever call these hotlines unless it were 100% anonymous.

Of course if it ever becomes popular, that will quickly change. But for now it is like early IRC.
