Is there a forum for clinical informatics that does what biostars does for bioinformatics?

Demoralized and dejected, the job market only seems to be getting worse.
Other place to get suggestions and padding for your Git repo would be to look at questions on boards like BioStars or StackExchange Implement, test, push, and comment with your solution. Make sure you all follow proper coding conventions too. Folks not only want the right answer they want to understand how it's done

Crime and Punishment at WikiTree
• Separate discipline for G2G offenses from discipline for genealogical offenses. Never expel a good genealogist from WikiTree merely for G2G behavior. The G2G software used by WikiTree ("Question2Answer" or "Q2A") comes with a "ban" option, so there is no apparent validity to the claims some in the leadership have made that they can't do such a thing or don't know anything about it.
