Secretary of War Pete Hegseth’s admirable directive has been out for some time: Among the groups frowned upon in the new, non-woke armed services are “beardos” and “weirdos.” Alas, this demographic appears to still be represented in the health technology field, or at least those who have failed in it, as well as those who […]
