@burtawicz I wrote software in python that can successfully predict if you have COVID or not with over 91% accuracy simply from breathing into a machine :)

"There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory mentioned, which states that this has already happened." (Doug Adams)

Has anyone here contemplated using Roblox for work?

I manage remote software development teams who have never met face to face and I find that bringing people out of their shells is difficult, and activities like icebreakers can be invaluable for this.

Roblox games are very varied and the platform seems very flexible. And it got me thinking that maybe these icebreaker activities can be gamified. Imagine a Roblox game being used to estimate stories for a sprint for instance.

Anyway, does anyone know of anyone who has done this? I'd love to know how they found it.

@gpowerf Love the idea, the execution seems a bit fuzzy. If you make anything of it please share!

@DrRobPM I would much rather accomplish the same thing with keyoxide though and do.

@DrRobPM being a free opt-in service I have no problem with it.

So, introduction post... eeek!

I've starting my migration over from the failing bird app to look for a platform to continue keeping up-to-date with like minded folk. I tend to enjoy learning from others in the field and will often post things acute med, obs med or leadership in medicine related.

Anyone got the hang of this app yet? It's going to take a while

Going to whirl over the next month or so, see how we go.
Live a couple of games, try and cover some news, what I can as a from the 🇬🇧

If that goes well, mix in some talk, start by covering games. If things are going well, some talk and finally some talk

Let's go

One of my favorite quotes:

“All Fungi are edible. Some fungi are only edible once.”

I have a varient of it I made up:

All animals can be cuddled, some can only be cuddled once.

@freemo @MrsDi @DrK @arinbasu @SteveZissou I am a newbie too (not though). I really appreciate all the post and hints as to how to conduct ‘business’ in here. Enjoying it way more than I should.

Yes I am the only one who has access to the database. It is true the DM is unencrypted (though your password is hashed and cant be stolen).

There is no way that anyone has figured out to encrypt it without the admin having the decryption key, and thus defeating the purpose.

We do encrypt our data at rest though so if anyone got into the sserver and had access to the raw hard drive they wouldnt be able to access it.

“All right," said Susan. "I'm not stupid. You're saying humans need... fantasies to make life bearable."

REALLY? AS IF IT WAS SOME KIND OF PINK PILL? NO. HUMANS NEED FANTASY TO BE HUMAN. TO BE THE PLACE WHERE THE FALLING ANGEL MEETS THE RISING APE.

"Tooth fairies? Hogfathers? Little—"

YES. AS PRACTICE. YOU HAVE TO START OUT LEARNING TO BELIEVE THE LITTLE LIES.

"So we can believe the big ones?"

YES. JUSTICE. MERCY. DUTY. THAT SORT OF THING.

"They're not the same at all!"

YOU THINK SO? THEN TAKE THE UNIVERSE AND GRIND IT DOWN TO THE FINEST POWDER AND SIEVE IT THROUGH THE FINEST SIEVE AND THEN SHOW ME ONE ATOM OF JUSTICE, ONE MOLECULE OF MERCY. AND YET—Death waved a hand. AND YET YOU ACT AS IF THERE IS SOME IDEAL ORDER IN THE WORLD, AS IF THERE IS SOME...SOME RIGHTNESS IN THE UNIVERSE BY WHICH IT MAY BE JUDGED.

"Yes, but people have got to believe that, or what's the point—"

MY POINT EXACTLY.”
