The #GospelOfTheDay (Lk 24:13-35) teaches us that two opposite directions are set before us in life: The path of those who let themselves be paralysed by disappointments and trudge along sadly. Then there is the path of those who put Jesus and others before their own problems.

WFH will prove things we always knew but, until now, couldn’t prove:
1. You only work 2-3 hours/day. The rest is busy time or socializing.
2. Politics are rampant when you’re physically close but impossible on zoom and slack
3. Your company has 50% too many employees.

This is a huge story. This algorithm caused millions of black patients to be denied potentially life-saving medical care, cutting the number of black patients receiving such care by more than half.
"A study in the journal Science just found a widely-used algorithm gave more complex treatment to white patients than sicker black patients."
