It’s mentioned in the book Bad Pharma which has a pretty good breakdown of how drug marketing to consumers and medical professionals distorts decision making.
Issue: "The last two weeks we've had morning meetings at 7am, leave work at 11pm, no breaks on the weekend...I'd like to ask, how much does a trip to the ICU cost?"...
"About 8,000RMB / day"
Creator here: I’ve found that deactivating all non admin users in a workspace (effectively “deactivating the slack”) during the holidays is a good way to give everyone a break, especially in noisy public slacks. Unfortunately, slack does not provide a “deactivate user” endpoint in their API (at least for free slacks), and manually deactivating all the users is a pain, so I had to go the “paste in browser console” route. Writing this function was also a good way to grok async / await, as the git history will show. I might add some sort of reactivation function ... after the holidays. :)
Thank you, this post and the linked post are very helpful, and confirm a lot of thoughts. I didn't think about the 1099s passing muster, will definitely look into that. One challenge I've had is that there doesn't seem to be a good way to search for accountants. Is there something like Zocdoc for accountants?
What did they honestly think was going to happen when they introduced internet terminals across the city?
I struggle to understand the city's response to this issue, aggressive filtering could have achieved the same goal of preventing unseemly public web browsing.
