The dumbest part of this is that all Wikimedia projects already export a dump for bulk downloading: https://dumps.wikimedia.org/

So it's not like you need to crawl the sites to get content for training your models...

No offence to Mr. Andserson but it reads a bit like someone has done an 'Inception' on him - subtly planted the seed of a train of thought that would lead him to disband his efforts, all the while believing it was his own idea.

Does anyone else think this should be made into a movie?

Massive respect to this ED.

Popping up here to mention OpenMRS, a healthy open-source EMR used by hundreds if not thousands of facilities across the world, mostly in Africa and Asia. An old version is packaged/integrated with some other apps into Bahmni, which is a full-blown hospital management system.

Honestly, people complain about software all the time and all software sucks to some extent, some more than others of course. Complaining about all EMR just because the USA bodged a national rollout in their uniquely messed up healthcare situation is a bit myopic.

Funny that the article focuses on huge corps for on-prem. I work for a non-profit and we deploy stuff to hardware in Afghanistan, Haiti, Sudan... You can't assume the Internet works and if it does, it could be a 1Mbps VSAT connection.

Needless to say we don't have a Fortune 500 budget. When I see a nice, affordable app that says "and here's a Docker image!" next to the SaaS options, I am like ( ˘ ³ ˘ ) ♥

This reminds me of "two stories of the pistol", some anecdotes where a sentry actually does almost kill some idiot senior officers:
