Banks wove their way into drug transactions as a middleman called Pharmacy benefits managers. They stand between insurance and pharmacies to prevent collision, but instead, what we see is insurance companies pay a lot for drugs, while pharmacies see very little for that drug. Over 50% is being taken by the PBM because they're "preventing" collision. Don't even get me started on the vertically integrated pharmacies like CVS and United who abuse their position to force consumers to use their pharmacies instead of competitors or use "technological advancements" to keep their prices lower than their competitors.
NYC is currently trying to pass legislation to fix this, but that's only at the state level.
Wall Street needs to get the fuck out of healthcare and healthcare needs to stay the fuck out of Wall Street. Once a healthcare org talks about share holders, we're no longer talking about patients.
I'm sure their adoption rate looks like, does the user use the autostart software when the start the car? Yes? Wow, using our software really is amazing.
Now what about the optional Android auto software? No? Pft, we have 100% adoption vs 50% (assuming 50% of users use Android).
My company operates as an LTC pharmacy. We pay for every claim submission whether reject or success.
I was on the phone the other day with my pharmacy (optum) and they did a "test" claim which was free for them. I know optum owns the pharmacy, insurance, and pbm, but either their abusive their vertical integration or they have an "ai" to test claims.
No I didn't. I'm praising governments willing to stand of for their people. I'm responding to someone else that said the government works for the people and I said that's not how the US works. Governments don't always work for the people, sometimes they bend the knee for corporations.
Most of us use Google, Microsoft and Amazon. They're ingrained and destroying our futures but they're convenient. Two generations from now will be saying the same about us. We as individuals can resist, but it won't make a trillion dollar company into a million dollar company. We eat the rich, none of this generation hate.
They mentioned this was patched in chatgpt but also exists in llama. Since llama 1 is open source and still widely available, I'd bet someone could do the research to back into the weights.
Just bought an EV from a local dealer. Went in on Saturday because they had a 2 month used listing on their website for about 10k under MSRP. They told me, oh no that sold, but please check out the new cars. I entertained them and told them they'd need to bring down the price 10k to get me to sign because it's simply out of my price range. They also mentioned these things (ioniq 6) are selling extremely quickly and they only have a few on the lot.
They insisted and played games for a week, with offers OVER msrp, so I let them waste their time. They pushed me to come in, so as I was about to sign, I told them, actually, no. I need an offer 10k under MSRP or I'm leaving. At this point that was a 15k cut. They've now wasted a week of negotiation and suddenly found the used one I originally requested, but it was at their off-site lot.
We drove over there, and it was a large 5 story parking deckcompletely filled to the top. They even had cars parked in front of cars. They tried one last game and made me wait for 3 hours to get it out.
All that is to say, let the fuckers bleed. If they can't afford Christmas, maybe they need to learn what the fuck capitalism really means. If they can't afford new years, it's time to make a new resolution and if they can't afford spring break, it's time to find a new job.
The next gen is going to need to avoid state regulated porn restrictions, age restrictions and drm tracking software. They're going to be an entire IT team just so they can get off.

No they're synthetic oil cans that are one of the best ways to grease things and can as a side be used as a bomb.
You don't take a picture of a vodka bottle and say someone was trying to make moltov cocktails. Likewise, if I raided a bar and took pictures of empty vodka bottles and towels that doesn't make them or the customers terrorists.
Speaking from the pharmacy perspective.
