Seriously, stop being a troll. I’m done with this conversation. Not one time have I used the word violation.

Believe it or not I pay attention to usernames. I was talking about the link you just posted that mentions the liability assumed by the signers of the BAA.
Maybe read it again? My job requires me to be HIPAA and FERPA certified, I am confident in my interpretation of the situation.

The answer to your question is in the article you posted… did you even read it?
Have a great day, I’m done talking in circles.

What?!? The entire purpose of HIPAA is to put liability on misuse of data. At this point, I have no fucking clue what your point is.
- Comment on Federal Cyber Experts Thought Microsoft’s Cloud Was “a Pile of Shit.” They Approved It Anyway. 1 day ago:
No I can’t cite something that doesn’t exist. I literally just said there isn’t one… so I am not sure what your point is.

I am a software developer who does custom EMR software specifically because the places I work for can’t use the cloud. But okay I will try…
- Comment on Federal Cyber Experts Thought Microsoft’s Cloud Was “a Pile of Shit.” They Approved It Anyway. 1 day ago:
There is no certification process in place for using a cloud to store HIPAA data. It even says that on the page that you linked. Legally, any organization that used this service would be opening themselves to further liability under HIPAA.

This is because DevOps is the updated version of Visual Studio Team Foundation Server. You have always been able to self host it because that used to be the only option.
- Comment on Federal Cyber Experts Thought Microsoft’s Cloud Was “a Pile of Shit.” They Approved It Anyway. 1 day ago:
They do that because there are some things that you can’t put in the cloud, like HIPAA protected data. It’s absolutely a rip off, but that was their solution.

My laptop has 2 hard drives… it just goes up from there.

I have that vibe, I recently had to move… now I am complaining a little. It never seems like that much until you have to pack it all.

IIRC the original Shuttle design called for an ejection mechanism around the entire cockpit. During STS-1 and I believe STS-2, which was also Colombia, there were extra emergency mechanisms present, but I don’t think the seats themselves ejected through the roof like a fighter pilot’s would. For the most part though these were useless as they could not be used above 30,000 feet or something like that so it could only be used during the first minute or two of the flight.
Several of the safety mechanisms and other things that were going to be part of the original design that had not already been scrapped for weight (like jet engines for powered decent) were scrapped for weight when the DOD stepped in and offered NASA extra money for the Shuttle if the Shuttle could hit very specific, higher and less fuel efficient, orbits. This came from an offhand comment that Jimmy Carter made, and then had to make good on the threats and implications of.

Fun fact: Columbia, pictured with the white tank, was the heaviest shuttle and was not modified to have the airlock necessary to dock with the ISS because the performance losses compared to the other shuttles made it difficult to use for ISS operations.

Idiocracy is about what happens after the current time when smarter more level headed people are trying to put the pieces back together. We are in the prequel era, things are going to get worse before they get better.
- Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them 6 days ago:
Though this does vary by locale, in most places legally it’s only permanent if you have to leave it there when you move.
- Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them 6 days ago:
For a permanent installation, yes, just like a large solar installation. But I can go down to Lowe’s and get a gas generator capable of similar output as the balcony solar and it won’t require any permits.
- Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them 1 week ago:
No it isn’t. The same thing happens with the kind of gas generators you can get from your local hardware store all the time.
- Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them 1 week ago:
Obviously. I was just pointing out that it isn’t an issue unique to solar.
- Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them 1 week ago:
The same thing that currently happens when somebody does that with a gas generator? Linepersons get zapped… people get sued… etc…
There isn’t any data transmission over the wires…
That’s very wrong. Not only can you extend Ethernet in your own home using your power outlets, the power companies have been reading meters this way for decades.

IDK, when I was finishing my CS degree there were some people in my class that didn’t know the difference between Mac and Windows. The ‘weldingification’ of development means that for over a decade now people who write or research code may not know anything about computers.
