Wow, the footnote about dentists surprised me because I just found out about this company [0] (and apparently it’s one of many[1]) that just stamps out pre-built dentist offices all over the US with all the equipment and staff included.

All they need is the dentist. It’s honestly super creepy how generic they all are and how many middlemen end up involved in your dental care.

Wow, TIL about the Association of Dental Support Organizations.

Now I'm imagining a future where independent open source maintainers are common and successful enough that there's a conference for the Association of Open Source Maintainer Support Organizations.


I heard it first time too but I don't find it creepy. Actually, I want more fields run like that.
