I think you leave it open. I know sometimes my phone logs me out so I peruse not logged in sometimes for weeks at a time. There's also quite a few folks who pop in a few times per year or once every few years and while they're not active here frequently they might appreciate being able to check in without logging in and if they want to contribute they can just log in real quick and contribute.

If y'all haven't seen JT's tiny desk it's fun

My boss's boss could only make part of a meeting and asked me to sit in on the rest and take notes. During that meeting, someone introduced themselves as a new team leader at the CDC's local quarantine station. I applied for similar roles this past summer and was referred to the hiring manager but never heard back, which is a shame because what an absolute dream job it would be working with shit like that. Well during yesterday's meeting when the new guy introduced himself he mentioned they were hiring one more. Sent him a cold email after work mentioning that is a dream job of mine, and he wants to forward my resume to the hiring team (he's too new to hire himself) and follow -up next week.

They may be a bitchin' place to work but only if you live in Madison. They tried to recruit me but I have less than no interest in living in Madison, Wisconsin.

And yeah the infinitely configurable thing is real. I was only using two or three hospital's epic systems and it's sometimes a real mess to go between because they're in vastly different places.
