Hmm but the government also doesn't take over the medical facilities where I live? Most medical facilities here are normal private companies (some privately owned, some publicly listed etc).

So what do you mean?

Doctors are expected to give the proper amount of care so they do that. Doctors doesn't care about what this will eventually cost for the government. The doctors work for private companies so the have no incentive to limit the care. They also have no big incentive to provide more care than needed.

Anyone can go to a doctor to get an appropriate level of treatment. If you want more than that, to the degree that you want to waste your own money, then of course you can do that by paying for it out of your own pocket.

It's funny that we are having this discussion. This is a solved problem in large parts or the world and the only reason it's an issue in the US is due to people being crazy.

> However $200k for a second heart surgery for someone who hasn't taken heed of earlier exercise or diet advice by a practitioner should not be supported.

I disagree that failing to adhere to a certain diet should be punishable by death.

> I've never understood why people have this idea about healthcare but not even more immediate necessities like food and housing.

Hmm but I have the same view for food and housing. Where I live if your mother doesn't have allow money to buy proper food the government will contribute (both for food and housing).

Not sure if you are joking but the hospitals are paid by the government for the provided services (via tax money). Obviously a life long cancer treatment will cost much more than 30 USD.

Where I live you know the cost before you go to the doctor since you will only pay a symbolic sum of 30 USD even if the visit ends up with something like a life long cancer treatment. If you need medicine you will pay at most 120 USD per year regardless of the costs.

The idea that your access to healthcare should be linked to your own or your parents financial is crazy.

> MSI packages may very well be supported for at least a few more years on Windows 10

This sounds like someone making installer stuff would say. MSI will be supported on modern OSes for much longer than "a few more years".

VB6 apps created in 1998 will be supported until 2025 at least. MSIs will be treated the same.

> if a method consistently fails to be implemented correctly by a large segment of projects, I put the blame on the method myself.

I have heard that sentiment many times but it doesn't really make sense to me.

If a doctor tells patients that going for a run a few times a week is a good way to increase their stamina, but most patients are too lazy or busy to do it, do you blame the method of running then?

Or do you mean that the method should be designed in a way that only companies who will succeed will adopt?

By your standard, is there any successful method to this area?

Glhf with that.

Honestly, relying on any such work flow to find something as critical as visa requirements is insane. At least I wouldn't want to rely on some service which failed to detect that some Russian government page updated their web page and considers the page outdated. The page could still exist while incoming links are removed or similar.

> Do you automatically parse visa policy changes on official government web pages?

Lol. That won't work well.

I wonder the same thing.

I'm not sure I agree with your second paragraph though. Could also just be an example of the risks with stupidity and ignorance.

Because Google pays a lot of money to Mozilla?

There's a difference between doing OCR and actually understanding what is what in the document content.

For normal text OCR works well. But automatically understanding what is what is more complex.
