:( this sucks. Github would not even exist without Tom Preston-Werner and I am really scared to see how it will exist without him. Tragic for all his users.
it's time we step up to plate ladies. if we want to compete toe to toe with the gents then we have to be better than the ones we are up against. period. if you're better, trust me, he will pick you regardless of your gender.
it might even be in your favor if you just happen to be a woman on top of being better :)
Good point. Will add this to website now: 419 Fulton Street Suite F San Francisco, CA 94102.
Sidenote: this is the reason why great hackers stay out of healthcare. you're scaring people away with this comment. I understand privacy needs to be taken seriously, but I do not think it should stifle innovation.
Cool, thanks for the suggestion. The sandbox should be rolled out by the end of the week. Any reason why you put 'hackers' in quotations? Does it bother you that we use the word?
Traditionally health information technology has been run by non-technical bureaucracies sitting around a table creating "specs" that hackers then need to mud through (usually 300+ page pdf) in order to integrate/implement. The bureaucracies intentions are good: free up the data to build from, but the result is just the same old legacy vendors end up using it.
Thank you. One step at a time. We're focused on winning as the platform where all US healthcare eligibility information is passed to prove that it can be normalized and done fast. Then we will move on to help hackers take over the whole healthcare transactional world including clinical, imaging, and pharma data :) Less talk, more do!
