<3 thank you. I have done a lot of research, and yes my healthcare knowledge is somewhat lacking. However my goal was to ask an open ended question to see what others are doing. Research is always key. I also do plan on hiring those with experience in the space as well
Makes sense. I am sure I misworded, and got turned around a bit. Much of the documentation with fhir talks about oidc. Which seems to be in place if you are doing much more sharing of your data. These things as you mention are probably beyond what is necessary initially and could be added at a further date. However using a service or an open source project that can allow to scale to that size is an interesting proposition.
HIPAA applies to all health data regardless of what you do with it. It’s one of the few things similar to ITAR that you cannot put off for later. The fines for not complying can be staggering ($50k-$1.5m).
I highly recommend talking to someone who knows HIPAA well.
If you are handling any kind of medical data about people, then you cannot think about security at a future date and your life will be difficult from the start.
For everyone reading these comments, I want to say that this kind of pull request is hurtful and unwarranted.
You've essentially sent an alert to someone ( or a group of people ) saying that you believe their work has no value. This kind of behavior could have real-world consequences. You could be pushing someone to not work on open-source again, or make them feel worse about working on a project they might be required to contribute to as part of their job.
How would you feel if someone started vandalizing your own github projects gvx? Would it make you feel good? Would you consider it funny?
You're allowed to be a jerk, but when doing so you shouldn't be surprised if people call you a jerk (or use a nicer phrase like "this kind of pull request is hurtful and unwarranted").
Constructive criticism is good, but the linked PR is not that. It's akin to a content-less drive-by HN comment like "you suck". You're free to post it (until you get banned), but it's not adding anything and you should expect downvotes.
umm... it's because the date 31st isn't in those months... Simply, they're switching to February <current day right now> 2006, because you did not specify a day.
Sure enough. But is it a sane thing to do for a "convert readable date to date object" function to silently amend the current day-of-month to a otherwise underdpecified date?
I really don't see the use case for that anywhere.
I would expect to use the first day of a month as a default, just like when time is not specified it should use 00:00 as default. Taking the current time/day as a default sounds off.
Probably hard to fix backwards compatible though...
Agreed; I expect date parsers to give me earliest-available value for a field if it's not specified, with the exception being the current year rather than 0 AD or whatever.
Javascript:
new Date("Feb 2006")
> Wed Feb 01 2006 00:00:00 GMT-0800 (Pacific Standard Time)
According to the documentation there's a 'default' parameter, which contains the datetime used to get otherwise unspecified fields. If not given, the default is the current date. Thus to get what you want:
>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> from dateutil import parser
>>> now = datetime.now()
>>> first = datetime(now.year, now.month, 1, 12, 0, 0)
>>> dateutil.parser.parse('February 2006', default=first)
datetime.datetime(2006, 2, 1, 12, 0)
Moreover, often this is not what you want. Generally you'll want either "the last past day that had that number" (logging of activity), or "the first future day that has that number" (appointment planning). But having a date that can be randomly in the past or the future sounds a bit strange.
haha yep, i thought of this like 6-8 years ago. from what I've sorta thought of in conjunction with your statements, I'd like to add that there's numerous processing and hacking issues and whatever else. It's extremely insecure. The closest we will get to this is the "cloud".
I use Google News a lot. I have set up several topic-specific sections on topics I wish to follow closely, and have closed some of the default Google News sections (e.g., entertainment and sports) to devote more time to more serious news. Google News is also useful for switching over to concentrated views of newspapers from particular parts of the world, e.g., India or Pakistan, or Africa.
I cultivate my Facebook circle of friends into mutual teams of news-gatherers. People friend me specifically to follow the links I post that they've heard about from other friends, and I follow most closely friends who scan news sources for new reliable links. I share out links I discover here on Hacker News, and share into Hacker News some of the best links I learn about from my friends.
But then the "free to play" part doesn't mean much.
From the FAQ:
"For gamers, every game will be free to play: what this means is that there will at least be a free demo"
So it's free to play in the way that a great number of games not generally considered free to play are free to play. Or in the way the XBLA is a free to play platform or something.
