If you can do it from home, so can someone else someone else ...in another country ...with lower costs of living ...and wages which are a fraction of what you are being paid for the same work

Everyone I knows who works remotely has skills that can't be replicated. That's how you get a sweet telecommute gig.

Are you also for a prohibition on alcohol because some people get addicted to alcohol? It's the same stupid argument. Some people can't handle it so no one should be able to enjoy it.

How about instead if you don't like playing the games, you just don't do it and don't worry what other people are doing.

Comment Sleepyhead (Score 4, Insightful) 154

Sleepyhead software is great. It allows you to view the medical data your CPAP machine tracks, but is not normally accessible to you, the patient. Did you get that? It's your medical records, they belong to you, but you are not normally allowed access to them. You need that information to track your progress and make informed decisions about your care. Without this software, if you want to view the data, you must request it from your doctor's office and they typically charge you a fee for copying it. Fuck that.

My view is that the patient is responsible for their own health and doctors should only act in an advisory capacity to make recommendations for improved health. Software like this gives you back control and that's why I think it is so important.
