Thanks for the feedback. I will work this weekend to fix those bugs


Sure, I will take care of it. Thanks for the feedback


Yes, I am working on a Activity book for kids based on similar kind of games which I would be publishing sometime later this year. I've published a Math Brain Teaser book back in April and yes I can see the sales going up but not significant though. I'm still learning the art of marketing. Would love to know if you've any tips for me since you being an established author

Math Brain Teaser: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F4PBNZWF


I'm a debut author and not established by any means. I do have marketing experience and can provide the following suggestions:

+ Put all apps and books under one umbrella brand. Your book doesn't have a unique name associated with it. Little Math Genius or Little Math Whiz, for example.

+ Setup an umbrella website (littlemathwhiz dot com) and blog

+ Start aggregating a user mailing list where you can provide gentle updates (beta test new features on quizmathgenius, new book announcement etc)


Thank you for the feedback, I really appreciate it. Building my own brand and website has been on my mind for a long time, and this year I’m finally planning to focus on it seriously. I’m aiming to take this full-time since I truly enjoy working with subjects like Math and Critical Thinking


I have posted an interesting Math Problem from my upcoming book on Math Brain teaser and it looks like already buzzing


Do you mean real cash by playing a fantasy game? oh yes with the recent pandemic no one can afford to go in a stadium and watch the matches so it's fantasy cricket at home. Well Played.


Well.There is no problem in day-dreaming.


It could easily happen.


I think that's true for almost all the messengers. You dont know who is spying and peeping into your chatbox. We've given so much power to social media and softwares that they are kinda driving us now. Huh!!


I do not understand why can't we make a dashboard on Go with Streamlit or Dask. That will be a faster alternative. Why do you even need to spend 3 days when the job can be done in 3 hours

I do not usually write posts like this, but I would never write an hl7 parser when things like hapi https://hapifhir.github.io/hapi-hl7v2/ exist. It is not just a parser, tones of fields in hl7 messages have not obvious meanings and implications


That would have taken care of the message parsing, but the team would still need to do the concurrency work, get it debugged, and working. Also Java is not nearly as easy to deploy on-prem as Go.


Interesting point about deployment. Though I haven't worked in orgs that would just let you drop an arbitrary binary on servers


I used https://github.com/deoxxa/hl7 at my last job to grab HL7 messages out of central processing system.

Regardless of the parser, I agree. Writing your own is dangerous. HL7 is deceptively complex. It leaves a lot of room for vendors and your hospital to customize. If you write your own, you can very easily end up with a system that is boxed in to your hospital's own, or even your department's own, implementation.


I thinks this article packs several engineering lessons and that this part is one of them:

> we worked on a custom layout which is similar to a bedside monitor interface.

It's great they went that route and did their best to stick to what doctors know by heart, instead of going creative.


I love streamlit but don't think it's really the right architecture for this. It's not great for externally triggered or timed updates.


Thanks, I changed the title accordingly.


it doesn't look like from this post that web scraping is authenticated to be a legal activity, it's more of what can be scraped by a bot and what cannot.
