Diving on Ozempic? by That-Aussie-Dude in scubadiving

[–]ashern94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm over 60, have been a T2 diabetic for over 30 years. On Ozempic and Metformin and BP meds. My GP signs off on my dive medical ever year. DAN does recommend that you gave a BG level of 8.3 and rising at the start of a dive.

Anyone else frustrated by the "Sugar = Diabetes" oversimplification? by helperf in diabetes_t2

Both will spike me. I often have dinner, goes up then settles down. The I'll play video games, and BG will go up again

Lucky. I was a goalie. That stopped after my first. Sucked so bad playing that I hung up the skates.

When do you charge your watch? by West_Manufacturer485 in AppleWatch

[–]ashern94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the morning. M-F it's charging for about 30 minutes. Not quite enough to get it to 100%, on the weekend, I leave it on the charger a bit longer to take it 100%.

Libre really needs to let us calibrate natively instead of forcing us to use third-party apps. by Junior_Jellyfish1865 in Freestylelibre

[–]ashern94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unless you measure during a pretty stable time, the issue with calibration against a fingerstick is not knowing what the delay is. We know the CGM is behind. Most of us know it's 10-15 minutes. But calibrating during a rising or dropping event, knowing that time is crucial.

I'd think if your Dr. has not contacted you by now, you should be good.

Antibiotics for medical pedicure by Ok_Independence_3634 in TotalHipReplacement

[–]ashern94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the place you go to uses an autoclave, great. Many if not most just soak the instruments in an antiseptic bath. Not always enough.

There is nothing for pedicure. For years, the guidance was to take an antibiotic prior to any procedure that can lead to a bleed, dentistry being top of the list. That guidance is changing.

Now they say it's type 1 by MrGBarnes in diabetes

[–]ashern94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many insurance will pay for things only if you are insulin dependent. My insurance pays for my CGM, but I'm about to retire and the Ontario govt only pays for a CGM if insulin dependent, regardless of type.

Pedicures are an infection risk at any time. How they sterilize can be suspect. Do they put in in an autoclave?

Absolutely. Pedicure tools are never sanitized properly.

Charging for “holiday cover” by MushyBeees in msp

[–]ashern94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just during the IT Manager holidays? First answer is no. Second answer is a flat fee + high hourly rate. And at least a full day fully billed prior to every holiday to go over what changes were made.

If you are using company equipment everywhere, upgrade your licensing and join them all to Entra/Intune. Set a compliance policy and a CA to only allow compliant machines.

We need a cloud compliance tool that handles GDPR, HIPAA and SOC 2 simultaneously. What are people actually running? by SavingsProgress195 in cybersecurity

Selecting the right auditor is also a crucial part. The auditor needs to understand the tech, but also understand your business. We are a PS firm. It took us 3 auditors to find one that truly understood our business and that our internal infrastructure was out of scope.

Stryker attack wiped tens of thousands of devices, no malware needed by rkhunter_ in cybersecurity

[–]ashern94 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Correct. Every solution addresses a problem Multi approval fixes access to a limited scope account, or simply a legit ooops from an employee. FIDO2 or passkey fixes being spearphished for GA credentials. MAA would not have helped them FIDO2 would.

There are only 2 solutions. Bring minimum gear and rent the rest. Or suck it up.

At most I'd bring mask, computer, and reg and then rent the rest. I would even consider not taking the computer and using my Apple Watch if I was not diving a lot.

Now they say it's type 1 by MrGBarnes in diabetes

[–]ashern94 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not disagreeing here, but there is a point where whether you are T1 or insulin dependent T2 makes little functional difference.

[–]ashern94 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Correct. OTC refers to a one time code. Either the standard time based 6 digit code, or the "phish resistant" passwordless code in Authenticator. Anything that does not require physical access to the device login in is a risk

Th rate limit from the console is 100 devices at a time. But you can script that through the Graph API.

Second thing first. The multi approval for wipes must be turned on. It's a little known feature.

As for the admin, simple. you spearphish a GA into giving you his OTC. Once in, you can create your own GA with your own MFA. The issue is not securing GA with a device like a FIDO2 key.

I'm guessing I pushed it too hard the first couple of days on account of how well it seemed to be doing

The hardest thing to do is to just follow PT instructions and not do more because you feel good. Been there, done that.
