HL7v2 is just the schema - the mechanism for sending these messages is normally something called MLLP which is just a simple framing protocol and has no built in security. It is possible to send/receive HL7v2 over other protocols, MLLP is the most common.

Its normal to secure the endpoints via network level security - ipsec etc. HL7v3 transformed into FHIR which is done over HTTPS instead.

This is because RoR projects do not do unit testing, they do integration testing with a real DB.

This approach is terrible and causes the poor performance.

There are whole sets of testing "tools" for RoR projects that promote this mechanism of testing - if you're testing an API you need to use an external tool to properly hit that API.

If you're writing unit tests, write unit tests with mocked dependencies.

Funny because my anecdote is that any devs I've worked with who only use an IDE are average to flat out bad at software development.

Disasters like powershell returning a 0 exit code even if there is an error? Its a pile of trash that doesn't add anything new other than a big shiny MS logo.

Powershell is a horror you mean, it's got the verbosity of objective c with the consistency that comes with all Microsoft designed products.

Just use a proper scripting language.

We did and so this didn't cause us a major issue today.

At my lost job we had the same.

And the one before that.

This mitigation of a risk that affects business continuity is something that all senior level people need to take seriously at any company, small or large.

A lot of this is not true. The majority of women accused (in the UK) were accused by other women, not these all powerful male brewers - around 500 people (men included) were found guilty of witchcraft in the UK during this period, out of roughly 2000 accused.

This is biased material promoting a political ideal and not factual.
