jeeshan··on Launch HN: Aqua Voice (YC W24) – Voice-driven text editor
Very excited for something like this. I'm hoping you are a victim of your own success, but it's far too slow and is missing words. Would love to see something like this succeed.

jeeshan··on I've procrastinated working on my thesis for more than a year
>If you struggle with procrastination on a grand scale you have an emotional problem, not an organizational one. No amount of planners, charts, calendars or todo lists will solve it(though they are good to have for other reasons). You need emotional solutions. Therapy, medication, meditation, introspection.

Exactly correct. If you're already in a PhD program, well-meaning organizational and motivational techniques are likely not what you need.

What can be labeled as procrastination may be an emotional dysregulation or as Dr. Jen Wolkin calls is " procrastination isn't laziness, it's a trauma response"

To anyone who has felt this way, I am so sorry and you are not alone and there is help. If you're in school, access student health and the graduate programs health resources and leave programs. There still is so much unnecessary stigma and shame around mental health, but if you had similarly severe physical health problem, getting treatment and help would the first step. Not trying to brute force your way through it.

jeeshan··on Ask HN: What is the best money you have spent on professional development?
Fully agree. There are therapists who also do coaching.

jeeshan··on Ask HN: What are we doing about Facebook, Google, and the closed internet?
To foresee the perils of a closed internet, look at healthcare.

Instead of using open standards, most of our medical data is trapped in proprietary vendor systems that are at best antiquated.

Patients are unable to move their data easily, doctors and hospitals have to pay huge sums to access their own data. The vendors extract massive rents but were all left in the dark and our health suffers

jeeshan··on Ask HN: Is it possible to invert the races on police shooting videos?
Is it possible through some sort of post production processing to have white individuals appear black and vice versa?

I'm curious how reactions change, if at all, when the situation is reversed.

jeeshan··on Disney's $1B Bet on a Magical Wristband
As a doctor, the first thing that popped into my mind when reading this is how transformative this would be in the hospital for both patients and providers.

Hospitals are mazes for patients and there are so many obvious ways to improve the experience. But as a provider, moving from transactions to moments with patients would reinvigorate the practice.

"The goal was to create a system that would essentially replace the time spent fiddling with payments and tickets for moments of personal interactions with visitors. The MagicBands and MyMagicPlus allow employees to “move past transactions, into an interactive space, where they can personalize the experience,”

Ideally you'll have a full immunization record so we can take you into hospitals to work directly with the doctors. We are also live in a number of hospitals in Southern Africa and our ideal candidate would be able to travel there for a few weeks to work with our doctors there.

knozi - you bring up a good point, paper is hard to beat in many ways. its very easy to write things down on paper.

Its one of the challenges with Listrunner and we're constantly refining the UX to make it faster to enter tasks. We've looked into OCR but doctors' handwriting is terrible. We have a trial with voice transcription that is promising.

In a lot of ways, nurses have it even worse. They're constantly on the front lines they lose so much time in having to rewrite the same information over and over again.
jeeshan··on A typical day on the ward
Good and (complex) question. Essentially, the person deciding or purchasing technology in a hospital (an IT administrator) is not the person seeing patients (the doctor). They often work in completely different buildings and no have overlapping experience.

My bad incorrectly submitting.
