  • I don’t need it to be night to realise that. I have -13 on both eyes, near-sightedness (not sure about the correct terminology in English). I see clearly for about one centimetre right by the tip of my nose, everything closer or further than that is a blurry and fuzzy mess. To use my phone without glasses I have to press it against my nose and can only see about half of the screen width clearly.








  • Here in Sweden they always ask: “Do you want the cheapest option?” when you buy prescribed medicine. If there’s a reason for a specific manufacturer then that’s stated on the prescription.
    I’ve even had them say that the drugstore I’m at is out of the cheapest option and then ask if I want them to look up which drugstore is closest that has it in stock and if they should send them a note to save what I’m looking for so there’s no chance it might sell out before I get there.

    And there’s also high-cost protection, an annual maximum amount (about $275) you can spend on prescribed medication and anything else healthcare-related. So any medication you buy and the cost of any medical services you use are added together and if that cost reaches the maximum amount within a year everything is free until the next year. So basically you can’t pay more than $275 per year for medication and any other medical services.








  • Why ask this instead of just looking it up? You could even have explained it after doing so and helped other people who don’t know.

    Quote from an article explaining it:

    Intent-based UI is a design philosophy that aims to bridge the gap between user expectations and system capabilities. It involves designing interfaces that can understand and predict user intentions, enabling the system to respond proactively and provide relevant information or actions. This approach not only enhances user satisfaction but also fosters a more efficient and productive interaction with the system.
