Glad to hear, that you have a good prognosis, at least, Josh. Best wishes and a speedy recovery!

Daplunk, sorry to hear about the diagnoses but I'm glad it was caught early. That seems to be the best way to beat it.

I have a friend in Australia who is perplexed by all things medical and otherwise in the US. We are always discussing it and asking each other questions. She's always telling me I need to move there. The way things are going here I may take her up on that.

Thanks guys, It's a shit of a thing but it will be killed very shortly.

For any Americans playing at home. 3x specialist appointments so far. That put me about $300 out of pocket ($180ish per appointment with $70ish paid back by the governments Medi-Care system). There's been some tests and stuff but that had no cost. So that started on Saturday and the surgery will happen the following Thursday (tomorrow). So it's all very quick and going through the public hospital system there was next to no wait (Wednesday would have been soonest and that almost happened) and no out of pocket cost.

From what I understand of America that is not how this would pan out for you guys.

We opted not to use Private Health cover since it's only day surgery so really no point doing all that paper work.

Good luck with that. I had an actual job in Sydney back just after the turn of the century and still couldn't get a work visa for Australia. They have very strict immigration rules.

Everything depends on your health insurance here. For instance when I went into kidney failure I was working for a company that had very good health insurance, Blue Cross/Blue Shield for anyone in the US, and it was amazing until I went on Medicare which is public insurance for the very sick and retired, turns out that Nixon of all people changed the law so that people in kidney failure who need dialysis are covered by Medicare which is pretty much a life saver since each treatment costs thousands of dollars and the copays on private insurance would have bankrupted me.

Holy crap, daplunk! Get better and all. Though, cancer is scary enough that I hardly feel like it's enough.

Buahaha! Cloning Rob is a great idea! Unfortunately, there's no room in my schedule for that kind of project. Any volunteers? haha

If you are in your 30s please get your nuts inspected... I'm really quite surprised at how not unhealthy I feel given what has been found. I wouldn't have noticed it or found it without the doctor.

Yay....
I'm so sorry you're dealing with this Josh. I very much hope all goes well!

So it's great to hear your making headway on 64-bit and fixing bugs but in the past few weekly updates within RW, but nothing has been mentioned about the Content Manager which I thought was the main intent of everything. We've been promised the Content Market multiple times and each time the promised day has come and gone.
This was from August 10th:

We are now at end of Oct.
Yes, we asked for more updates on what's been going on and the progress of things.
We appreciate these updates.
But the main complaints from everyone is the broken promise of the Content Market.

What's the status of this?
Will we see it prior to 2019, or has this been put to the side while other bugs and migration to 64-bit have taken the main focus?
