Maybe rather than directly attacking the boss, damage boosts can get stacked up for other players to use? Or maybe "shields", which reduce the cooldown / timeout.

Is there a way to get notified about future versions/updates?

Part of the article talks about how testing and confirmation of a COVID diagnosis was a requirement here, which helps narrow down the study.

It's like Love2D, but for Wren instead of Lua.

I started it fairly recently (linking it here will probably cause the server to melt) Just my space to talk about whatever I'm thinking/working on.

Currently it's focused on Fang, the programming language I'm designing/developing.

Mature doesn't mean it's static.

It was originally conceived to have a much less heavy-handed scope though, but has been strengthened over time to something near-impossible to thwart.

The system works, assuming it's adequately funded, which it hasn't been for a while. Salaries aren't high enough to live on (thanks to the conservative government and creeping privatisation), and then brexit and other immigration policies have caused a shortage of trained professionals and no one willing to fill the vacancies.

There's a whole heap of issues (I've left out quite a few) stacked up against the NHS, and yet it powers on, doing its best.

The main thing is knowing that if you need any procedures, services, an ambulance, critical or emergency care, etc, you'll not be asked up front to pay for it, you'll just be treated. Seeing that principle erode over time is heartbreaking and terrifying.

(rant) Healthcare as an industry doesn't function properly under a capitalist model, which expects that competition and consumer choice will encourage innovation and further competition, leading to a better outcome for the consumer. If you need healthcare, you don't really have a choice in it, or your choices are artificially restricted by circumstance, so you can't benefit from a competitive marketplace. It's a broken system, as far as I am concerned.

* A design which can be generalised is inherently more complicated, and is often unnecessary (you probably won't make use of that generality, leaving you the burden of maintaining it), so you'll be glad you made a simpler first pass.

* I don't like working with docker/containers personally. It makes me feel so far removed from how services are deployed that it's basically magic.
