Hello HN! At Cedar, our mission is to empower us all to easily and affordably pursue the care we need. We know the healthcare system needs to change, and we want to be part of the solution.
The Platform pillar is tasked with building, delivering, and maintaining the technology platforms that Cedar builds its business on. Currently we are working on migrating our Django monolith to a Service Oriented Architecture, improving developer efficiency, and migrating our infrastructure to a multi-account model (AWS).

Combine this with their propensity to randomly shut down services and also jack up the prices of things by some wild amount overnight with no warning or justification. (Google Maps API and Kubernetes control plane.)
I would never consider risking all of my work on Google's reputation which is a shame because I'm sure the services themselves work relatively well. It feels like everyone outside of google is widely aware of these issues but everyone inside is completely blind to them.
Side Note: has anyone ever "won" an appeal with Google or does the system deny 100% of appeals?
They did not sign up for this an in most cases probably don't really have a choice but to keep working. Health care has always been known as a high stress field, but the last year has completely changed everything even for the people not directly working with Covid patients. Hospitals in America continue to treat employees horrendously while the executives hide out and rake in the big bucks. Maybe a small minority of nurses are earning this "5-10k" but there are probably not as many as you would think. Not everyone can just leave home and everything else behind and work 5-12s in a week.
I make an internet promise here and now that if I ever build the robot I'll open source the source code to control it.
Very cool and I would like to build this, but the "Nano Dog" is probably a cheaper and more approachable option for the garage engineer.
Thats what the founder of MySpace does now.
