Urgent care billing services play a vital role in helping clinics manage high patient volume, accurate documentation, and faster payments. With strong Urgent Care RCM, clinics improve claim success rates through correct urgent care CPT coding, clean submissions, and clear documentation. A modern urgent care EHR supports efficient charge capture, coding accuracy, and smooth workflows. Professional teams handling urgent care billing ensure fewer denials, better payer compliance, and stronger financial outcomes. Effective Urgent Care Revenue Cycle Management allows urgent care centers to maintain speed, efficiency, and consistent revenue. https://asprcmsolutions.com/specialities/urgent-care-rcm

Day 19 of 50 days to 2026! Did some work on thistle today focusing on making the class experience a bit better. I split groups into sessions which should hopefully be a better experience that just dumping all of the lectures in one place. Did a bunch of experimenting with my keyboard as well which was fun. It's tricky to type on and I have to relearn how to touch type which is hard. Tomorrow starts advent of code!

Day 19/50 • Showcased Milkyway Pets in a huddle! I was really nervous so congrats to everybody else who participated in either showcase :blahaj-heart: It's so inspiring seeing everybody else's projects and just makes me more motivated :D • Worked a bit on my personal website. I don't think I'm gonna finish it by the dealine for #C09JQE8P8EA| but I'm fine with that. • Played piano for a bit, cleaned my room, backed up some files to a 2TB HDD I got from SoM Screenshot is from the huddle, the game is 21st Century Love Story by Kaylee and Athena.

:50days: Day 19/50 Today was probably the least productive day cuz I spent like an hour helping to make her slack plugin thingy but it wasn't working cause Electron check the asar integrity :(( I tried to make an archiver with gowarc but mmhh idk why it wouldn't work :shrug3d: BUT Frankenstein was a really good movie (letterboxd)

Today I spent some time finishing up SSAO (there were still a few bugs), and added FXAA (Fast Approximate Anti-Aliasing). I might also add SMAA as an alternative in the future but I really want to move on to some more interesting stuff now (the acronyms alone are making me brain dead). I uploaded some screenshots, though the AA isn't that noticeable because of the compression.

Day 18/50: • Made a projects page for my personal website - it still needs some work though. • Finally, FINALLY got Milkyway Pets working for macOS (I hope - I haven't been able to confirm whether it works) • Practiced clarinet for ~30-35 minutes. It's the first time I've played since I got sick, but I really want to make a habit of practicing most days. • Went out and practiced driving in the evening - I felt a lot more confident that last time (actually, less terrified might be more accurate) • Realised that I'd lost my 33-day Anki streak :noooovanish: After spending my last month with exams looming over my shoulder, it feels so weird to have all this time to myself. I still want to manage my time better than I have in the past, and avoid spending too much time on YT and Slack - hopefully these goals can be reminders for future me.

days 17 and 18 of 50 days to 2026! Today was a happy day! All the parts for my split keyboard finally arrived and I got to assemble it! I somehow managed to only desolder 4 caps with my fat fingers when soldering the header pins on but thankfully after removing them completely the boards still work just fine. Yesterday and today I also did a bunch of work in my homelab migrating things over to my oracle server and just generally tidying things up. My homelab is slowly nixifying which I'm very happy about :)

Finally added SSAO to my OpenGL renderer! (which was the whole point of setting up a deferred renderer). It's a subtle effect, but it definitely improves the depth perception of the scene and now runs acceptably fast.

[18/50] today (rather yesterday) i did: • continue working on :siege:! @Winterflows is in a pretty usable state rn (apart from the fact that it only has 2 steps), check it out! • watched a movie w/ my gf (feel free to guess), it was awesome :D • slept a bit earlier (3:30 > 1:30), might continue doing that

:50days: Day 18/50 I'm continuing on starblog (found a name), I added posts so I can just extend from the base and write the content only. I'll add rss/atom feed after watching Isle of Dogs tonight @Scrappy-Doo can now automaticly post message from #C01504DCLVD| and #C09VC37P2NA|, I just need to make a webapi so I can use this instead the perks of it are: Filtered tags (anyone can add tags to your post) Use message shortcut (using reactions to post is weird) Not buggy that's not much but always better. it's just missing a cdn for making images publicly available

:50days: day 17!! back to working on readme! got a chapter navigation bar done :) instead of using tailwind like usual I actually wrote vanilla css, it felt weird but i kinda... liked it? there's something nice about the styles actually cascading instead of having to copy and paste class names
