Poorly disclosed bugs/code kills people.. More often than you think.

Archive: https://archive.today/q7tdP

From the post:

>I wrote last month about my diabetes diagnosis this year and my difficult choice to wear a proprietary device (called a CGM) on my arm 24/7 to continuously monitor my glucose levels. Like my friend and colleague, Karen M. Sandler — who previously made a much higher-stakes choice to receive a proprietary implanted defibrillator to keep her safe given her genetic heart condition — I reluctantly chose to attach proprietary hardware and software to my body.

I knew. I liked him because I could ask him to do stuff and he would make insurance cover it. If I wanted bloodwork or metformin or whatever, he was cool with it as long as my justifications made sense to him. I'd bring research papers and he'd make up ailments so I could get drugs that my insurance wouldn't cover because they were off label uses. But he moved a couple hours away and is at a different kind of practice so I'm stuck finding a new one.

I wish I didn't need one at all but buying prescription drugs from India can be hit or miss. At least he renewed my scripts for a year lol.
