How Price’s HHS is attacking the healthcare millions rely on.
Link. HHS staff must feel violently sick every workday.
In heart disease: “NSAIDs can precipitate clogging of the vessels”
Link. Cox-2 yes, but NSAID?! I think this is a misquote.
ACA insurance coverage rule: “A child age 26 or over who is incapable of self-support because of a mental or physical disability that existed before age 26 is also an eligible family member.”
Link. I didn’t know that.
Smartphones for all: Ten sample chapters and a presentation for Down Syndrome Association of Minnesota (DSAM).

My Pinboard share stream: most tweets start here.

In iOS 10 “you can’t password-protect notes that you share with someone else”

Link. Does outrage alter Trump voter behavior?
“Before 1928, countries had the legal right to wage war.”
Link. Strange shifts.
iOS is becoming less accessible for the cognitively disabled.
The original Mac was very easy to use. It became much less cognitively accessible after MultiFinder was introduced. Apple then added “SimpleFinder”, but that never truly made the transition to OS X (the name was preserved without the CamelCase, bit it is much less useful).
iOS is following a similar path, but without SimpleFinder. This impacts not only the legally disabled but also everyone who is less gifted – and the elderly.
iOS needs cognitive accessibility controls and considerations.
NK: What if Kim Jong-un is truly as crazy as Trump?
Link. Secondary sanctions not necessarily worst option, despite severe US recession.
The long hand of bad history.
Link. Mao similar.
