The healthcare industry has as much incentive as the financial industry to maintain a high security environment. Fines for exposing PHI can be astronomical if a large number of records are compromised.

This is a new cold war that we've been in for a while now. Government backed hacker groups from foreign nations are constantly targeting high profile organizations. Healthcare, Finance, and Government are three of the top targets.

There are too many breakout indie hits developed by one person or a small team that prove this isn't true across the industry.

AAA development may be that way because there are higher expectations, just like blockbuster movies invest heavily in special effects and A-list celebs. But at the end of the day gamers just want to be entertained.

Agreed. The form factor is right. AR technology will only reach the possibility of mass adoption when it can fit in/on the existing eye-glasses form factor.

This is still news worthy, but not "Front page" news worthy. Back in the newspaper days this would be sent to the back of the paper.

I read one time that scammers intentionally make over the top stories because they want to weed out anyone with critical thinking skills.

This story seems right in line with that.

The person making billions is struggling to pay the officials off that enabled them to continue to make billions.

All who have tried to play the same "outrage" game as the Cheeto overlord have failed spectacularly.

It's also focused on x-rays instead of the visible spectrum. I would hazard a guess that the resolution requirements for this are vastly different in scale compared to photography.

I got the sense he meant more that it would go up through business-side committees to double check the work and make sure it wasn't inappropriate. If that was the case that again would be an indication of corporations being risk adverse.

I listened to much of the interview on the radio. He touched on a lot of good points and then came to the absolutely wrong conclusion. He talked about how many writing rooms are "writing by committee" where jokes will go through a review by many different groups. If this is truly the case (I don't know) that is not an issue if the "far left mob" but rather the enshitification of comedy due to corporations and Wall Street bankrolling these productions wanting to ensure return on investment. This kills creativity by reducing risks. Topical comedy is a risky medium by default.

Also, shout out to Rob McElhenney for his sarcastic one word response. In Jerry's imagined world, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia can't exist.

Alien hand syndrome makes me believe this. Usually occurs when something traumatic happens to the brain. The way it's described seems like the dominant consciousness losing control of that motor function to the lesser consciousness.
