Hi HN! We are building enterprise software that prepares patients for surgeries ( http://www.medumo.com ). Millions of patients go through these things every year. The problem is that patient instructions are provided months in advance, in the form of paper handouts or verbal instructions that are easily forgotten. As physicians, we saw firsthand how poor patient experience can impact hospital operations and surgical outcome. For example, when patients forget to stop medications that can cause bleeding, the surgeries have to be cancelled last minute which is costly. Or worse, poorly prepared patients get the surgery and have avoidable complications. Our team came together to solve this problem with patient navigation software that gives turn-by-turn instructions, reminders, and educational material through friendly, accessible medium (SMS/email) to deliver the best experience and surgical outcome. Unfortunately, health systems are notorious for moving slowly, so introducing a new digi...

So yesterday we figured out that facebooks Facebot crawler will crawl _every_ url that was recorded by their tracking pixel. I find this highly concerning since: 1. they are crawling potentially sensitive information granted by links with tokens 2. they are triggering potentially harmful and/or confusing actions in your website by repeating links 3. they are repeating requests in a broken way by not encoding url-parameters correctly, for instance url-encoded %2B ends up just as a "+" thus becoming a whitespace (same goes for slashes etc.) 4. I could not find a warning or note on their tracking-pixel documentation that pages tracked would be crawled later from Hacker News: Front Page http://ift.tt/2EtFSTb via

A lot of good content is posted on HN. However, I am unable to read/watch most of it. I do use Pocket to store articles for future reading. But the list gets big too quickly and I find it overwhelming to finish all of it. Any specific technique or tool you use to manage all this content? from Hacker News: Front Page http://ift.tt/2nP8EUH via
