News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

I respect your opinion. The fact that I have extracted (and not extracted) more wisdom teeth than 3 of you means nothing to this argument is what worries me the most: Dentists have lost patients trust. I am no longer a trustworthy expert. So sad.
my dental school is pretty big on evident based dentistry. Many dentists I works with often refer to researches and guidelines. Even dentists arguing with each other on the internet quote researches. So I think it is getting better.
they didn't teach us to remove every wisdom teeth in dental school. also your assertion that "most wisdom teeth removal are not necessary" does not fit my observations.
jaw surgery is needed if the malocclusion is due to skeletal issue. meaning braces alone would not be enough to fix the bite.
word of mouth. just ask your friends and relatives for referral.
I am a dentist. The article and some of the comments here make me sad. sorry for the bad apples in my profession. I am sure most of the dentists are honest. If you have questions about procedures you don't understand, you can ask me.

Small medical office IT disaster recovery plan

Hi. I am new to IT. Need some ideas. My company's clients are small medical offices. They run mission critical software that cannot have more than 4 hours of down time. I was told to use Windows 10 image to recover the server but it would take too long to get my client up and running. Any better ideas? Thank you!

lack of or reduced blood supply
Hong Kong is not the only place where people speak Cantonese. The entire region of GuangDong (Canton) speak this dialect. Do they believe all "trolls" speak Mandarin?
Too much insulin pumped into human body can literally kill a person. I don't think it is safe for hobbyist to hack a medical device like this.

Dentist. I was a software developer for 9 years before dental school. This year I am doing my residency. Last week, I did fillings, root canals, extractions, implants, IV sedations, and seeing medical complex patients in hospital. It felt like it's a dream.
In this case: the width. aka the "mesial-distal" length.
It is smart that you designed the retainers based on maximum tolerance of tooth movement quoting from a textbook. I suggest you take X ray to make sure no root resorption have occurred. Also for those who want to imitate, measure the length of teeth and compare with the arch length to make sure the teeth can actually "fit" into the arch. I am a dental student.
I worked remotely in my previous job for 3 years and noticed team cohesion suffered. There is something about being in close proximity with coworkers help people care more about each other.

Sadly my plan B was a change of career completely after 30. Not proud, but at least I code for fun now.

Student here. Why do you run a localhost web server before pushing to git? Is this a git thing? (I am a newbie to github). Thanks. I like this nice short article.
