We specifically moved to a part of Boston with lots of trees.
All the benefits of public transit, nightlife, and resources, but as I look out my home-office window right now, I see a big tree, a dog park, and very small forest of trees right behind that. I can't see another building, and its wonderful.
This is the exact reason I don't commute by car. I live in Jamaica Plain and work in Kendall Square. Driving takes 45 minutes to go 4 miles. Taking the T takes 40 minutes. I ride my bike and my commute is 17 minutes each way, no matter the hour, traffic, or weather.
Ah, nice! I lived in Arlington and my commute to Cambridge was literally 2X faster on a bike than any other possible method. It's crazy to ZOOM down the bike lane at 15 mph while the cars are idling at 0mph waiting for the very slow traffic cycles to progress.
No limits here. In the US with 4-5 weeks (depending on length of employment) of vacation per year. We have people who say "see ya" at the end of November and we don't see them again until mid-January.
Speak for yourself. Spaces in macOS is one of the best window management features I've encountered. Of course, it's been common in Linux window managers, but since I use a Mac for work, its a godsend that spaces and multiple desktops is implemented. I'm a developer, and being able to organize my windows and split them (fullscreen isn't limited to one app per screen anymore) is so freaking useful that I feel lost whenever I try to use Windows again.
I think I could help answer this. The cost of computation has gone down so much that its just a fraction of the price for your whole genome sequencing. The cost comes from preparation, reagents, and storage. Illumina sells their own reagents, so the cost is really dependent on them. We've worked really hard to get the computation cost of genome sequencing as low as possible, and we just passed a major milestone last year.

Sounds interesting, but I'm pretty sure we need to keep out ActiveMQ instance in local machines because of medical data. We're also pretty tied to GCS...
like almost everyone else, AWS adds services to it's list of PHI approved services that customers with a BAA can utilize for PHI. AWS has done a phenomenal job getting services added to the BAA Service List over the past 6 or 8 months; there is a lot of emphasis on it now.
Where in the CFR does it say you have to use physical servers or even dedicated cloud instances? AWS will sign a BAA for dedicated instances only (biz policy, not for any valid security reason), but dedicated servers are not required by HIPAA.
I used to use SelfControl, but once I figured out how it blocks sites, it stopped being as useful. Don't fall victim to your inner Software Engineer and try to figure out how it works!
