#36C3 was awesome. Thanks for the great time <3
Happy new year to all of you and all the best for the next decade <3
Sometimes when I have absorbed too many bad news from the media I love to withdraw and focus back on technology, vintage computing, hacking, physics, machine learning and more to build a better future.

Le réseau informatique dont dépendent les académies de Strasbourg et Nancy-Metz est victime d' une panne majeure.
L'ensemble des services qui en dépendent sont indisponibles. La réparation est en cours mais aucun délai n'est indiqué pour un retour à la normale.

Little known fact: Andre Weil, he of the pairing, actually came up with the idea while in prison for failing to be report for duty into the army in the war. He said they were the most productive two years of his career (paraphrase).
He considered recommending to the French academy that all mathematicians should be sent to jail for 2 years :)
@metapsyche Thanks but I do most of that. I do have good friends but I lack the day planning and they are not always around.

@IntegralDuChemin For healthcare.. well there is a lot of nuance we would have to get into, but the big part would be co-op based insurance. Basically where the owners of the insurance company are the insurance holders themselves, but otherwise operate it as a free-market enterprise.
This eliminates the greed factor, so overpricing isnt an issue, but preserves free market pressures that drive quality up and ensure the policy holders have options.
@freemo Interesting idea :-)
@freemo What solutions do you suggest?
@freemo It is no extra insurance. I am insured this way because my parents are working for the state and thus had to pick this special type of insurance with all its perks and disadvantages. Perks are the reduced wait time and the fact that more stuff is covered. Disadvantage is that the insurance is much more expensive and family members are not insured. Even if I wanted I could not get "normal" insurance as a student. I have to wait until I work normally.
@freemo I am not. I had to see a specialist today. Called this morning, got an appointment although she has enough other stuff to do. You're right - for the general population it is the same here as for you there. We have a system with two different categories here as mentioned before. If I were among those with "normal" insurance I'd have exactly the same problem you had.

@IntegralDuChemin Well for example wait times. In europe wait time, even when its critical to ones recovery, is astronomical (even in the countries with the lowest wait time, Netherlands).
America also tends to have more rigerous pre-emtptive tests that catch things like cancer. It is typical in america to get routine blood tests and other exams they dont tend to do as frequently if at all in europe.
America also tends to have better survivability rates on many diseases (but not all). For example when it comes to cancer treatment the survivability is highest in the USA.
@freemo Ok, that is REAL news for me and with real, I mean really something I have NEVER heard before. Thank you very much for that - I am amazed when I get information that I really had not gotten anyhow before. At least for Germany I'd make a difference between public health care and private health care. Private health care finances the system, insurances pay 2.3 times the price it normally costs. In exchange I never had to wait for any appointment more than a few days and if it were not for private insurance a family member's cancer would not have been detected. They made this CT which they did not consider necessary when they discovered the cancer. So yes, thanks to that she is still alive. Still it sucks that I have to pay for everything in advance which is ok for me as I got savings but I would not recommend it for other students.
@freemo Ah I see. In which respect is healthcare better in the States? Are there things available which are not available in Europe given the same financial resources?
@freemo Can you please give me some updates? When did the States become that polarized? And where am I mistaken with my claims? I never claimed that Americans are against selling birth control but still abstinence is covered in schools all over the country, right?
