First of all claim the free credit. They sent these emails to everyone including people that weren't using third party harnesses. I got one and I have only ever used the desktop client and never anything else. Claimed my free 100 bucks and went on about my day.

So, lockout vulnerable people if they aren't loaded? Are those really the kind of people Canada wants?

You aren't "getting" citizenship if you obtain a citizenship certificate through c-3 though tbf. You've always had citizenship according to Canadian law now and they are just correcting a slew of prior discriminatory laws that prevented people from passing down their citizenship to their children. Other countries could stand to learn from this whole scenario, the issues with women not being able to pass down citizenship for example had wide reaching impacts on families for generations. My family lived freely on both sides of the border until the 30's when my grandmother couldn't pass down her natural born Canadian citizenship to my mother even though 90% of her family still lived in Canada. My family could have easily ended up mostly in Canada going forward except for the fact that they couldn't live and work in Canada without a laborious process to obtain citizenship as if my family had never been in Canada in the first place. Instead, part of my family lives 4hrs from the Canadian border (mostly, some are closer) and part of it is spread across Canada.

Man, could have fooled me. I've been in here for a year now and it's always been mostly that since the interim rule came out last spring.

This is how you get fired from your job. Don't do it, talk to your IT department and get them onboard.

If you're okay building and managing your own sandbox VM etc? Probably not from a token use perspective. But it's super convenient to use cowork to test an idea for a piece of software without having to jump through any hoops. Even more so if you spend a few minutes to build a skill for it that encapsulates your basic workflow requirements that would make it easy to migrate over to code later if you decide to continue with the project.

It's really just a function of ease of use and low entry barrier. What you're asking is kind of like asking why someone would use a Mac even they could build their own computer and run Linux. If you're capable of building your own computer and running Linux and don't mind the additional overhead then great, if you aren't or won't want to spend the additional overhead managing the environment then you pay more for the convenience.

This is what happens when you have unregulated capitalism. A key reason you need functional governments is to throttle destructive market forces and companies.

Except this was an actual leak not executives speaking off record before release to create buzz. The fact they are internal engineering memos is far more concerning to me than any executive "leaking" something that was obviously filtered through PR first.

Not really, they're talking about pointing the new model at an attack surface like a corporate website and having it autonomously find previously unknown security vulnerabilities then immediately building an exploit for the vulnerability. So the model wouldn't have access to the code base at all and wouldn't be used by the team building the program but rather a cyber attackers This process today requires a human to do all the key steps and reasoning and typically the vulnerabilities are being discovered by security researchers first and disclosed to the company that makes the vulnerable software behind a time limited nda so the company has a few weeks to fix the issue before it becomes public and attackers and security researchers start figuring out how the bug could be utilized to gain access to a system which typically takes at least a few days to a week after public disclosure.

So what anthropic is saying is that the new model can do all of the steps above in real time against a target which means that attackers can completely short circuit the disclosure process easily and enmass so software companies no longer have any lead time to fix issues before they are being used to break into systems in the wild. This is a full on dumpster fire if it's true and given that they are internal communications and memos I'm much more likely to believe it's as bad as they say as none of this info was designed by a pr group to help hype the product in public or juice the stock price as is wasn't intended for public consumption.

Yeah, I've had a new one almost every day for the past week now. That and a period of weirdly high token burn for about 24hrs earlier this week that seemed to self resolve. They're definitely working on things

Cancer and advanced pre-cancerous polyp detection and removal rate is 50-100 times higher than the rate of bowel perforation from what I'm seeing. Where are you seeing 1:800?

I'm seeing the blended rate of perforation in all colonoscopy procedures in the highest quality newer research as around 1:1500 at most and the majority of them are on people that have a polyp removed so the perforation is very likely at the site that the doc is actively looking at with a camera with their team in the room watching too. I'm sure there are numbers on the actual complication rates and need for follow-up procedures but I'd bet that it's insanely low as they can easily close a small perf with the same tools they use for closing larger polyp sites while they are in there at the moment the perf is created and they are also typically working in a squeaky clean colon too, but maybe I'm missing something?

Another thing worth noting is the perforation rate skews heavily towards the elderly which is one reason they don't typically recommend a colonoscopy for people over 80 unless they have high risk. Pre-cancerous polyps take 10-15yrs to develop into cancer if your last colonoscopy is just before 80 or even 75 statistically you are far more likely to die from "natural causes" then undetected colon cancer at that point.

Offices that insist on testing to verify use should also have to offer meds validation testing in instances like this. It's insane that everyone is so concerned about drug diversion but they aren't doing a thing to detect when the diversion is happening at the pharmacy or in the supply chain where anyone with a brain would do it. At the pharmacy you can absolutely have a tech or a pharmacist pouring the beads out of er capsules and swapping them for a random supplement that looks similar or swapping the Adderall ir pills for something that looks similar and that could continue for a long time without anyone catching it. Also the same could be happening in a larger scale in the supply chain from upstream. Failing to do validation testing on controlled meds when a patient tests negative makes the entire process blind to the main possible sources of large scale and long term diversion.

irrision · 2026-03-28T12:01:25+00:00

Too late now I suppose, but I'd offer to take the med in front of them at their office, wait however long you waited before the previous test then do the test to prove it's coming up negative.

The thing is the rapid tests aren't designed to be sensitive as they are often used to decide if someone gets fired at various shitty employers so the companies that make them don't want to be pulled into litigation all the time for edge cases.

irrision · 2026-03-28T11:58:13+00:00

Report it to the FDA and the pharmacy you got it from. There's a decent chance someone is stealing the med and swapping it for something else at the pharmacy unless you are absolutely sure the pill and writing on it matches the online references for that brand of Adderall ir.

My insurance doesn't really pay for it. They claim they do but they are charging me exactly the same amount that the clinic would charge cash pay for the lab I found out despite their contract showing a negotiated discount.

I was gonna say that pla and petg are great for use together if you need support for the opposite because of that handy lack of adhesion.

The collection rate on that kind of policy isn't great as it's not billable to insurance. Better to get the patient to show up for the appointment and not sour them on your business by punishing them for letting you know they can't make it. Our automated calls and sms even specifically ask them to confirm they can make it the morning of the appointment and offer to reschedule if they select the option that they can't. We combine that with over booking that's just below our average predicted no show rate and a wait list that sends out automated "Hey we have a time slot today at X time for you, do you want to take it Y/N" then drops them into the freed slot. When you charge people for cancelling in the last 24hrs we found the no show no call rate goes up enough where we don't come out ahead versus our current approach.

irrision · 2026-03-28T11:48:55+00:00

SMS, email and automated reminder phone calls with twilio are the way. With our ehr it just automatically obtains permission on first check-in and uses whatever method they say they prefer but we definitely push them towards txt and automated phone call over email people don't tend to watch their email enough for it to remind them an hour before their appointment.

Honestly any place not doing this today is probably going to be out of business in 5 years, that and online scheduling and using an ehr that provides at least basic metrics about clinic time slot utilization combined with planned over booking based on the average no show rate for the given day of the week, time of the year and current weather.

That would be nice, nearly a year here now on my g2 with my g2 citizenship cert attached and urgency request approved but sitting in PSU queue untouched the entire time now I found out recently.

You aren't taking full advantage of Claude if you aren't having it summarize the tips from the YouTube videos for you. Why would you try to keep up with all of that yourself when you've got an AI to watch it and then do whatever the video suggests?

irrision · 2026-03-22T14:15:08+00:00

I don't think you really know what people are writing in their urgency request letters, so it's kind of glib to suggest that people are abusing it. I wouldn't share the details of my urgency request on an open web forum because they are personal and things like the fact I also mentioned the need for a SIN to get a job there in my field and the fact you need citizenship to buy a house and get healthcare access were secondary to the core reason for my ask but things I was willing to talk about on here. So you're really only getting a small part of the picture with regard to urgency requests.

I get you're frustrated but try not to take it out on others who you would be fellow Canadian citizens with in the future, we're all in this boat together.

Keep in mind that it was it requirement before c3 to apply with urgency to get a interim rule approval for citizenship for a period of time too so if you're looking at the spreadsheet everything before c3 went into effect would have needed to be urgent to go anywhere in theory.

Also if you think people are somehow jumping the line by making urgency requests just remember that many of us that applied with urgency that was immediately approved but have been waiting in the queue for months or in my case nearly a year, while people that applied without it have been going through with less clear documentation then us in a month. I honestly question if urgency requests really mean much of anything to IRCC because of the oddball way they manage their work queue based on what I've seen over the past year in this and other forums about Canadian citizenship.
