The market will for sure solve this
  • From facts. German healthcare system is 100% privatised and it works very well due to minimal market regulations, but extensive safety regulation. The US healthcare system is bound to insane licensing processes and fees, yet close to zero safety regulations.

    For example, the US only has a few medical air transport companies, because getting a license is very very expensive. Only big corps can afford it and they have a cartel like grip on the market as there's no competition. At the same time the US doesn't regulate their performance and pricing. So you end up with an artificial cartel monopoly which sets sky high prices for their services.

    Similar licensing in Germany is much cheaper and any decent air company can afford it, so there's a lot of healthy competition. But they also have price caps, so services are actually affordable.

    So, in short the difference is that Germany has a free market with pro-consumer regulations and the US has cartel monopoly without any pro-consumer regulations at all. And this approach goes through the whole healthcare system.

    The free market always sorts itself out, especially with a small nudge from the state, that's why US corporations are lobbying hard to prevent all and any competition to themselves. And that's why corporate lobbying is called corruption elsewhere and is illegal.

  • Well, winter weather in the UK only ended in early May. It was still snowing in Latvia and Moscow in early may. I had to go to Latvia in January, it was unusually cold there. As well as being unusually cold in UK.

  • Any recommendations for monitoring my servers?

    Hi, I have a bunch of Raspberry Pies hosting all kinds of stuff and I want to have a monitoring solution for all of that. What would be your recommendations?

    My goal is to be able to have an overview of CPU load, network load, CPU temp and to see what's going on inside docker containers as I have everything dockerized. I'd like the solution to be open source. I want the solution to be web browser accessible and have nice load graphs with history. I don't want to spend too much time setting it up.

    All my Pies are running RaspberryOS, which is Debian based.

    Working 12mm Allen bit, successfully tested to 5Nm

    I was doing some bike maintenance today and wanted to disassemble my rear hub. It turned out that I needed a 12mm Allen bit for that, which I don't have. So I 3D printed one! And it worked! Torques safely to 5Nm and I only needed 4Nm for the job. Haven't tested higher torques.

    Sourdough Viennese pastry rolls

    Just some random Viennese pastry rolls made with sourdough starter instead of original yeast biga.

    Viennese pastries are made from enriched bread dough, meaning that they not only contain flour, water, salt and yeast, but also sugar, butter, and sometimes eggs. They are different from regular pastries because the dough is fermented and leavened with yeast instead of baking powder or soda.

    Rye brick tried to explode...

    I love my bricks, but sometimes they just don't want to be contained :)

    Sccalded rye and oats sourdough

    This is probable one of the best experiments I came up with so far. Oats just add a very nice flavour note to an already great rye bread. Full recipe is in my blog.
