As the entire healthcare system moves towards becoming invisible with the help of myriads of tiny diagnostic devices and gadgets, measuring vital signs, our cars will be an inevitable place for providing care. #themedicalfuturist #digitalhealth #future #healthcare #medicine #technology #fromchancetochoice #car #cars …see more

The 3 Dumbest Inventions in Healthcare - The Medical Futurist Most of the times, we talk about the best and smartest inventions, that will change our lives for the better. But I think it’s about time to talk about the dumbest. So let’s dive into it. #digitalhealth #medical #health #healthcare #video #funny #dumb #future …see more

Just finished two books. One was a good summary of technological trends and the other gave me a new understanding about scarcity (money, time or attention) and how related ideas can help deal with that in our lives.

As nursing care requires refined social skills, high level of empathy and emotional intelligence, robots or smart algorithms aren’t likely to fill up the field any time soon. However, as the demand for nurses will rise, there will be parts of the job augmented by technologies from chatbots through 3D-printing until VR. Nurses could benefit a lot from technology as it might make their tasks less cumbersome, more creative and it might free up some of their time. #digitalhealth #nursing #technology #education #health #machinelearning …see more

US data somewhat better than consensus expectations: Initial jobless claims at 751,000; Continuing claims 7.756 million; and Q3 GDP at +33.1%. Doesn't change the picture of a still-incomplete bounce powered by a recovery that's losing steam making the outlook more uneven/uncertain outlook. #economy #markets #employment #unemployment #jobs #jobless #recession …see more

In an interesting interview with Roula Khalaf and Victor Mallet of the Financial Times, President Emmanuel Macron of France notes that the crisis management approach has "nationalized salaries and the P&L of almost all of companies."

From the Financial Times re "US jobs picture darkens as large employers lay off staff." The description is consistent with what virtually everyone is hearing--and/or sadly experiencing--at the micro level. Unfortunately, it won't take long to outpace the horrible peak unemployment indicators of the 2008 crisis. #economy #jobs #unemployment #employment #FT …see more

A recession in the US occurs when there is ravenous financial innovation run amok. First someone on Wall Street comes up with a new way to make money. Then, a ton of money is made (sending the market to highs), then Wall Street goes ravenous with greed, then it comes crashing down and recession results. …see more

I get scared every time I do a podcast. I’m shy and I’m afraid I’ll seem stupid and that the guest won’t like me. I’m afraid they will not like me. I’m afraid they will yell at me. I’m afraid they will think I’m unprepared. Or that the listeners will hate the show. …see more

CAN YOU SOLVE THESE PUZZLES? I am incredibly jealous of Will Shortz. Since the age of 12 he's been doing EXACTLY what he loves doing. He solves puzzles. He makes puzzles. He plays games. [solve some of his puzzles with me in the attached video] He's the editor of the NYT Crossword Puzzle. The most famous puzzle job in the world. And he's on NPR once a week for 3.5 million listeners. And, to top it off: "I've played table tennis for 2,307 days in a row." "I'm a bit obsessive." "You're the worst guest!" I yelled at him on my podcast. "You've just been happy your whole life doing exactly what you love." He laughed. "It's true." But we had fun. And we unlocked a little bit the mystery of puzzles and why they are important to know. The key is misdirection: making someone think one thing (with a clue) when the actual answer is totally different. Misdirection is important not just for puzzles but business, writing, negotiation, and even comedy. And most importantly, as seen in the video, what's an anagram for a "gay rodeo"? ---- Solve the puzzles with me in the attached video. #life #job #comedy #games #crossword …see more

Total cost of divorce: $1000. Total time (from agreement to judge approval): about six months. Did everything work out great? I don't know. But it was probably better than two strangers ripping us apart and charging every minute for it. Some things to keep in mind... Kids are the only thing that's important. Throughout life, feelings and emotions go high and low. People change. Bad and good stories happen. Marriage is a story. Divorce is a story....But kids are NOT a story. …see more

Chances are, you've heard sometime in the past week that "38 percent of beer-drinking Americans would not buy Corona under any circumstances now." The statement came from a survey conducted by 5W Public Relations, who argued the threat that Coronavirus (COVID-19) would become a global pandemic is a PR disaster for the famous beer brand. The statistic proceeded to spread rapidly across news outlets, aided by a CNN tweet that went viral. But is it true? Constellation Brands, which owns Corona, just released a statement fighting the notion that recent events have negatively affected the brand. In fact, the company claims sales are actually up 5% in the U.S. over the latest four week period, nearly doubling the 52-week trend for the brand. But rather than jump into a defense against rapidly spreading misinformation, Constellation Brands CEO Bill Newlands did something very important, first. He recognized the gravity of the situation, and shared a little empathy.
