Healthcare Leads Employment Gains
The March job report shows healthcare employment leading in job creation, some good news. Just ahead of growth in new government employees (we’re not sure that’s good). Nursing and residential care up 17,000, and 55,000 in ambulatory and hospital care. On average, healthcare is growing at 60,000 jobs per month.

They’ve already lost a hacked 7m records to the dark corners of the internet - which they blamed on the customers for “bad password hygiene”. Genetic testing isn’t going away, but people will probably be asking for much better user agreements. 23andMe’s Exploding Plastic Inevitable Fate | Telehealth and Telecare Aware AI, Writing, and LearningThe Feynman method of learning says that you can’t really know a topic until you can teach it to a child. The process of writing in education is similar to that - you can’t really understand a topic, or know that you understand it, until you can write about all aspects of it. That’s what the hated essays in school do - they both assess knowledge, and force learning. When you depend on AI to generate outlines and papers, or depend on them to do your structural thinking for you, you aren’t learning. When you use AI to fact-check, grammar-check, and make recommendations about clarity of presentation, you’re using a sophisticated tool inside the learning process. It’s similar when studying medicine, the AI can be a tool, crutch, or cheat. What Do We Gain and Lose When Students Use AI to Write? - EdSurge |
