Are lace-makers ever struck by the realisation that all the holes were already there before they started?
Fanciest lace I've ever made, just need to fill in the edges.
Due to the craftsmanship shown in this picture, the emperor has requested that you make all of his clothes out of that exact lace.
The room is the lace, echoing with the sounds of the unplayed notes that make jazz jazz.

There are about three scans of this painting I know of, all bad. It’s likely an issue of it not being photographed for years but the pictorial descriptive we read don’t quite fit for any version. This one has orange, and purple but it seems magenta. It’s a bit distressed. There’s a dark version and a light one, very pink. The light one is more lower resolution than this.
I suspect this is the closest of the three, all are gallery sources. Someday we’ll get a good one, and i don’t post this one (and many others) much as i wait for better materials, but occasionally it’s nice to look at something we don’t see all the time, however imperfect.
How to hack any hospital computer

How to hack any hospital computer (L337 version for advanced security systems)
-Use the password taped to the back of the monitor
As a computer guy: This is what happens when you have too much security. It reaches a tipping point and then suddenly you have none. Security at the cost of convenience comes at the cost of security.
This is true of so many things in healthcare. Example: our software is designed to automatically alert the doctor if a patient’s vital signs are critically out of range. If someone has a blood pressure of 200/130, the doc gets a pop-up box that they have to acknowledge before doing anything else. It makes sense, in our setting.
But then some mega-genius upstairs realized something: the system was only alerting for critical vital signs, but not for all vital signs that could possibly be bad. Like, yeah, 200/130 is potentially life-threatening, but 130/90 is above ideal and can have negative effects on health. Should the doctors be allowed to just ignore something that could negatively affect a patient’s health? Heavens no!
So now the system generates a pop-up for any vital signs that are even slightly abnormal. A pressure of 120/80 (once considered textbook normal, now considered slightly high) will create the pop-up. We have increased our vigilance!
Well, no, what we’ve actually done is train doctors to click through a constant bombardment of pop-ups without looking. We’ve destroyed their vigilance and made it much easier for them to accidentally skim past life-threatening vital signs.
But you can’t tell that to management, because you’d have to confess that you are a flawed human with limited attention resources. They’d tell you “well, all the other doctors take every abnormal vital sign seriously, it sounds like you’re being negligent.” And if you’re smart, you back down before you start telling the big boss all about your habit of ignoring critical safety alerts.
The end result is exactly the same as if we had no alerts at all, except with more annoying clicking.
The other issue is that most computer security is designed by people who will never work the jobs if those using their security systems.
No nurse has the mental bandwidth to remember 15 different passwords to 15 different computers. They have to remember which patients need what, who’s getting what medication when, who’s allergic to penicillin, and a million other things. Of course the passwords are going to be written on a piece of paper by the computers, they need to move fast.
My college apartment building made their fire alarms super sensitive, with the idea being that it would stop people from smoking in the units. What it actually did was set the damn things off all the time while people were cooking. So most people in the building just put cling film over their smoke alarms to stop them from reacting to regular cooking and would just take it off for an inspection.
The fire alarm story makes a really good point because, this isn’t just a problem with computer security, it’s a much bigger problem of, corporate workers thinking they know better than the people who actually do the job.
I deal with this a lot, as a truck driver. Trucks are being built with a lot of new, fancy safety features that sound really nice to the corporate people who buy the trucks and the insurance companies that offer discounts for having them on the truck. The problem? All of those devices are designed, and tested, under perfectly ideal conditions and those are the only conditions they work under.
My favorite example is the system my current truck has that automatically steers the truck, if it thinks I’m too close to a line. Within the first month of having that, I nearly killed someone riding a bike because, when I merged, to go around them, the truck saw the line and tried to steer back into the lane.
The reality of these new systems is that trucks now have a lot of alarms that frequently set off when there’s not actually anything wrong. Most drivers are now constantly monitoring the ones that can be turned off, which is taking their attention away from the road. The ones that can’t be turned off, are so loud, and annoying, that we’re now seeing a major increase in drivers having anger issues (that’s not something you want a truck driver to have BTW). Meanwhile, a lot of people, in some office, are patting themselves on the back for the system they designed that works great, on a closed road, in California, in perfect weather
I’m an Uber driver, and I got dinged on a driver safety alert for braking too quickly one time.
The reason I slammed my brakes?
