Electronic health records when used appropriately are miles better than paper. More than half the article talks about the benefits before noting the two problems that paper does not solve. Which is crossing records from one system to another and the bloat that has been added as different specialties need to input different things. There will always be room for improvement but saying EHRs are a problem fully neglects that they are still a massive improvement.

Teams is annoying because even when you don’t use it, it prioritizes itself and opens making it take longer to get to the programs I actually need and use. This is only a few seconds on new computers but can be minutes on older ones. First world problem sure but my computer should run how I want it.

I’ve also never been able to get the web version to work there’s no error code it just doesn’t connect. IT doesn’t know and the Microsoft guy just said to use the app, which goes back to the above. If it’s going to be an app then leave it as an app if you have a web version then maybe it should fucking work.

The friend dropping is a common sentiment not so different from the “get a lawyer, delete Facebook, hit the gym” of relationship advice. That said “get your own mask on before helping others”. Dropping a friendship entirely is often a bit much but if I’m liable to depressive episodes and interacting with a certain friend gets/keeps me in such an episode, I have to help myself first. That may require staying away until my mental health is sufficiently improved or their mannerisms are improved such that interacting doesn’t cause a depressive episode.

About 25,000 coding sequences and a lot more non-coding.

That allows visualization of PCRed product, which is a far cry from whole genome sequencing. You can visualize a target at a time with no sequence info. Using it for sequences would be extremely tedious and require a lot of runs.

You still have to send it somewhere, at home kits are just about collecting the sample not sequencing it.
