A Prayer In Spring by Robert Frost Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers today; And give us not to think so far away As the uncertain harvest; keep us here All simply in the springing of the year. Oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white, Like nothing else by day, like ghosts by night; And make us happy in the happy bees, The swarm dilating round the perfect trees. And make us happy in the darting bird That suddenly above the bees is heard, The meteor that thrusts in with needle bill, And off a blossom in mid air stands still. For this is love and nothing else is love, To which it is reserved for God above To sanctify to what far ends he will, But which it only needs that we fulfill.

@italofounder @XFreeze @grok @grok what are the ramifications to individual user data that could occur as a downstream effect of this leak?

@XFreeze @grok what happened here?

@grok @libsoftiktok @grok Dig deeper. There should be equivalent data trails for other states that make public these data sets.

Sure, here's MN DHS autism program reimbursements (same dates): 2017: $1.1M 2024: $343M (up ~31,000%) No identical public autism-specific Medicaid tables found for SD, WI, or IA over 2017-2024. Those states report general Medicaid growth but lack equivalent breakdowns; national ABA spending is rising everywhere from more diagnoses/coverage, though MN's scale triggered 85+ fraud probes & FBI raids on providers.

WOW. Minnesota's spending on Autism Care went from $1 million in 2017 to $343 million in 2024 under Tim Walz’s watch. That's a 34,200% increase. This level of fraud is unbelievable.

@boringcompany @grok how deep are the tunnels going to be?

Tunneling has begun in Nashville - we are 2.5 feet in! Looking ahead: - Weeks 1-3: Prufrock-MB1 launches and undergoes a series of tests and calibrations (low production) - Weeks 4-6: scale to high production - Week 7: Prufrock-MB2 arrives

@PowPowTruth @TheChiefNerd @grok This is what I got with the same request

@TheChiefNerd @grok make me a meme with the entirety of RFKs comments from this clip included as text

Secretary Kennedy is special. Listen to this advice 👇

@TheChiefNerd @grok I was tying to do the same thing another poster requested.. and they got a bizzare response- totally off base. This is closer by far

Most people don't understand how incredibly complex 340B is. I barely get it myself. 340B creates a pricing spread. Hospitals buy drugs at a steep federally mandated discount and get reimbursed at a much higher rate. That difference is a huge revenue stream for hospitals. Manufacturers have tried to limit some contract pharmacy arrangements, which squeezed certain middlemen. So what happens next? Instead of losing access to that spread, insurers and PBMs move deeper into the hospital itself. Insurer owns the PBM. PBM buys a specialty pharmacy platform. That specialty pharmacy operates inside a 340B hospital. Now the same corporate family can still capture the margin. Different structure. Same spread. This is what a federally created arbitrage program does. It does not lower costs. It does not simplify care. It encourages vertical integration so the largest players can internalize the subsidy. When government creates a guaranteed pricing distortion, capital reorganizes around harvesting it.

@DrDiGiorgio Brilliantly said!! “When government creates a guaranteed pricing distortion, capital reorganizes around harvesting it.”

@elonmusk @DOGE This is so awesome! Thank you, thank you thank you!! let the DATA ring!

Medicaid data has been open sourced, so the level of fraud is easy to identify. @DOGE is not a department, it’s a state of mind.

Sanjay, where did you get the data for this? Because I think wrapped inside a physician services are a tremendous amount of administrative cost. Having another graph where there are dark and light bands to each of these sections that delineate out the contribution of clinical versus administrative, I think would be very instructive. Thanks for the post.

Exactly! Doc pay is negligible. Hospitals are swallowing all the $$$ in healthcare . This goes to pay the execs, not docs & nurses

I did not say money had no effect…. It usually has huge and often unrecognized effect. And I also find that human nature has a pretty wide scope of variation .. that’s why the same end can be pushed by two very different - even contradictory philosophies or positions. Muddy the water often is. (insert wry yoda accent)

@DavidHaaseMD @SamaHoole facinating that money has no effect unusual for human nature but glad human nature doesn’t apply sometimes

Medical "normal ranges" manipulation: 1985: Fasting glucose over 140 mg/dL = diabetic 2003: Lowered to 126 mg/dL Suddenly 2 million more diabetics 1985: Blood pressure over 160/100 = hypertension 2017: Lowered to 130/80 Suddenly 30 million more "patients" 1985: Cholesterol over 280 = concern 2004: Lowered to 200 Suddenly everyone needs statins They're not discovering disease. They're manufacturing patients by moving goalposts. Lower the threshold, expand the market, sell more drugs.

I agree with you. When you’re only tool is a hammer (or a prescription ) everything looks like a nail. For those clinicians who have more tools in their toolbox, higher standards have the potential to lead to better outcomes. But sadly that is absolutely not our current standard of care.

@DavidHaaseMD @SamaHoole Improving standard of what is optimally healthy creates a pressure to live up to those standards. Drugs provide an easy route to live up to the standards. I think prescribing high standards encourages more drug prescription.

It is a fair question. I think there is some co-evolution happening here. On one hand, we have known for a very long time that increased inflammatory markers mark elevated risk for heart disease and cancer and neurodegeneration, however, that never got any attention until there was a subtle shift in the C reactive protein level levels after statin administration then it got a lot of Press and there was more pressure to assess and treat with statins when finding the underlying cause would be a much more rational and effective approach. But the standard for blood glucose optimization has continued to be tightened and tightened, even as it is clear that drug therapy to accomplish This is often more problematic than beneficial. And I think your underlying point is valid, when you can’t understand something it’s almost always useful to follow the money and follow the ego.

@DavidHaaseMD @SamaHoole which scenario is more likely?

Well, even as I appreciate the poster I think he has it incorrect. Improving our standard of what is optimally healthy (which is how the standards should be set) by tightening our ranges does not have to mean treating more people with drugs. One of the most intuitive ways to understand vibrant health and physiology is to consider the standard to be that of the average fit, healthy and happy 25 year-old person Those “lowered” glucose numbers and cholesterol members would still be high given that standard. Instead I think these numbers are a better description of truth, as it applies to the optimal health of a human rather than just defining what made-up threshold determines disease. Like any tool, a standard can be misused. If you’re only tool is a hammer, everything will look like a nail. Therefore, if you are a medical mental midget and can only think of drugs as the solution to a problem, then the standards will be applied in that way, and that is not a problem with excellent standards that is a problem with the mindset of the health and medical community. So not a conspiracy but a miss-application of a better standard is my take on it.

The critical question is whether these decisions would stand up to scrutiny today based on everything we know. If not, this is really devious and should be reversed.

This is awesome! Very simple. A good rule is you should only eat what you could grow, kill, or gather from nature yourself with only the processing you could do in the kitchen yourself. It is profound what a huge effect this has on the human experience long-term. And… Start a garden!!! Even if it’s just a single pot as soon as your growing season allows!- gardening is a useful answer to widespread accessibility and increased affordability. Get your hands in the dirt! :-) Doc

Under President Trump’s leadership, common sense, scientific integrity, and accountability have been restored to federal food and health policy. For decades, the Dietary Guidelines favored corporate interests over common-sense, science-driven advice to improve the health of Americans. That ends today. The new Dietary Guidelines call for prioritizing high-quality protein, healthy fats, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains—and avoiding highly processed foods and refined carbohydrates.
