jazoom··on GitHub’s new offer closely matches that from GitLab
It is great, except there STILL is no reasonable way of finding a particular image in the registry. You can't order by date uploaded! Only by name. Which means the order is out of whack as soon as you go from version 9 to version 10.

And to make it worse, paging is extremely slow, so it could take an hour of paging into the middle of the list to find the name of the image you're looking for. Even if the image was uploaded 1 minute ago it could be in the middle page.

Thankfully I don't have to do this very often, but it's a horrible experience when needed.

For similar reasons deleting unneeded images takes forever and is not feasible.

Sterilisation is done in an autoclave. Not with any of those things listed. The person you replied to is correct. The page is misleading. Source: I'm a doctor.
jazoom··on Lens: Desktop application for managing Kubernetes clusters
Is it open source?
jazoom··on Google Kubernetes Engine is introducing a cluster management fee on June 6
Look at Vultr too. My last 2 support tickets were responded to within 2 minutes and solved within 10 minutes. Their support has always been good, but unlike almost all other companies, it seems to get better as they grow.

I run a Kubernetes cluster on Vultr and I haven't had any problems.

jazoom··on Firefox 73
I think it might have been the first case you described. I have only recently switched over to Firefox and that was my first debugging experience with it, so I didn't realise it was a specific case and a known bug. Thank you.
jazoom··on Firefox 73
Not just Angular. My Vue app as well. I can't figure out why Firefox doesn't just display the error.
jazoom··on Migrating to CockroachDB
After your opening sentence I kept waiting for the comparison to Yugabyte but you never mentioned it again. How did it go?
jazoom··on Firefox Preview adds support for recommended extensions, including uBlock Origin
It crashes for me too. I can deal with that. I find it much more annoying when it loses my tabs that I keep open to read later.

After the last update the "undo" notification at the bottom sometimes doesn't disappear, which is annoyingly placed over the address bar and menu button. There's also no way to manually dismiss the "undo" notification.

Despite all this it has by far the nicest user experience of an Android browser so I stick with it in the hopes one day it won't be super buggy. I'm sure that day will come.

Geez, with all these limitations you may as well use another, proper open source database.

jazoom··on Announcing the New PubMed
15 doctors and none ordered a scan of her brain? Well I'd say that's very unusual and the exception rather than the rule. In my experience doctors are more likely to request imaging purely to demonstrate to the patient that there's nothing visible, even if imaging isn't indicated.
jazoom··on Announcing the New PubMed
That also doesn't seem unusual to me. I'd say most doctors recognise their limitations.
jazoom··on Announcing the New PubMed
Doesn't seem unusual to me. I could have written the same thing myself. Most of my doctor colleagues would be similar. Maybe you live in a different part of the world where doctors jump on every latest trend/study, but I'm not sure where that would be. Most of us like to let the water settle first.
jazoom··on SmugMug emails subscribers with request to find more paying users
May I ask what software you use for self-hosting?
jazoom··on Eat This Much – Automatic Meal Planner
I'd like to use this with my patients but we use kilojoules, not calories.
jazoom··on Americans take fish antibiotics because it's cheaper than a visit to the doctor
Colds are caused by viruses that live in our cells, not bacteria. An antiseptic would probably not be much use unless it killed your cells as well, which would probably be worse than the virus.
jazoom··on Earliest known draft of the King James Bible discovered
It's not a myth. It's the opinion of most people who have read them (including me).

However, many would say the entire compilation is a myth.

jazoom··on Earliest known draft of the King James Bible discovered
Yeah, New Testament is a fair bit nicer.
jazoom··on Ask HN: Do we need Google captcha?
Yeah I know, and you're unfortunately correct that I use Gmail, but it's something I'm planning to change soon.

Also, if someone was targeting you with spam that won't help. They'll just remove the "+..." and you're back to the same problem.

jazoom··on Ask HN: Do we need Google captcha?
You've just reminded me I really need to use unique email addresses for each service.
jazoom··on The World's First 20-Hour Airline Flight
I'm a doctor, but maybe not in the same country as you. I'd be surprised if doctors in your country put people on permanent anticoagulation just because of a DVT with a known trigger of a long flight.
jazoom··on The end of uBlock origin for Google Chrome?
True this. Autofilling just doesn't not work at all in Firefox for me. Chrome's was great.
jazoom··on Eliud Kipchoge Breaks Two-Hour Marathon Barrier
Likely the fastest human distance runner that has ever lived on this earth.
jazoom··on Australia Just Had a Bad Flu Season. That May Be a Warning for the U.S.
Many people get a vaccine at a pharmacy here. What you're saying is simply untrue.

Also, I (doctor) give the vaccine for free (government stock). The vast majority of patients that come to our clinic get it done by the nurse and the patient isn't seen by a doctor so we can't even get reimbursed by Medicare for the service. Our nurse's time is donated by the practice. The room is donated by the practice. The vaccine is donated by the government.

But sure, let's make blanket complaints about how doctors are holding everyone's health for ransom.

jazoom··on Australia Just Had a Bad Flu Season. That May Be a Warning for the U.S.
I probably did over a hundred swabs on my patients. I'd say the most common was rhinovirus, then RSV and influenza A, then about 4 other viruses made up the rest. It was certainly more than 1% influenza A. There was a decent amount of influenza B too after a while. Parainfluenza came up strong later in the season.

I got sick 3 or 4 times. I got the flu vaccination a couple of months before all this really took off. I guess that confirms the flu vaccine caused me to get sick (sarcasm).

jazoom··on Bowel cancer screening in younger groups may do more harm than good
FYI you weren't screened. You were investigated. Screening is for asymptomatic people. There is a huge difference. The pre-test probability will be very different.

And congrats to you and your doctor. You both made good decisions and saved your life.

I'm running Linux on my SP4. It's pretty good.
jazoom··on Microsoft announces new Surface Duo phone
Except I'd have no idea how much time I had. When is "holidays"?
jazoom··on Microsoft has removed the “use offline account” option when installing Windows
You speak the truth. I've tried to explain this to them previously but they just ignore it. I use Arch now, but if I had to use something Debian-based I'd pick PopOS.

My wife now uses PopOS. It may have been easier to convince her to use it if the name wasn't ridiculous. She likes it now, though.

jazoom··on Act legalises personal cannabis use, becoming first Australian jurisdiction to
>Cultivating cannabis through a Canberra winter will not be easy though, as any Canberra gardener can attest.

Sounds like growing cannabis is popular in Canberra.
