Could that be a bit of a hasty reduction to make based on one post in a shitpost comm?

WTF are you ranting about? I’m a web user. As I’ve never owned a device which had a web browser but not a calculator, I’m simply asking why would I want a calculator in my web browser?
Whether or not you are a full stack web developer, I’m confident you can understand this simple concept.

Did you mean to reply to someone else? Unless you want to address my specific point about why would I want a calculator in my web browser, I don’t understand your comment.

- Comment on What is the point of this community compared to asklemmy? 2 weeks ago:
Based on the description and rules, I had thought NSQ was for genuine questions you don’t know the answer to and may feel stupid asking. For example, “How can I tell if a carrot is safe to eat or spoiled?”
Rules 4 and 5, to me would preclude the kind of validation or discussion seeking posts where the title is an opinion question and body is an essay answering the question and asking for reactions. However, as you point out this actually seems like the majority of posts lately.
I thought those type of posts goe in !asklemmy@lemmy.world which says it is for “open-ended, thought provoking questions” and has a rule clearly stating it is not a support community. Yet the mods/members there seem happy to take and answer general support questions.
Maybe I’m wrong, but it seems like a pretty common theme in the Threadiverse that most community mods are more interested in post activity than strict rule/topic keeping.
- Comment on Are doctor's of presidents still bound by HIPPA even if they see a major decline that would massively effect the country? Or can they tell the truth? And can they lie if under pressure from one? 2 weeks ago:
I guess I have a different idea of what require means.
That’s entirely possible. From what you wrote I think your definition of required is along the line of “that for which there is no possibility or option to avoid.” Is that accurate?

your not being arrested for not giving your PHI. You’re not required to do so.
I don’t really understand what kind of distinction you are trying to draw. If the question is, can an employer require you to provide medical information as a condition of employment, in so far as it pertains to fitness to do the job, the answer is yes. You do not have a right to ignore this requirement of your employer. If you did they couldn’t fire you for non-compliance.
Your employer can require you to start at a certain time, wear a specific uniform, or even to refrain from speaking about certain topics while on duty. You would not get arrested for violating any of these but that doesn’t mean they aren’t required of you as an employee right?

It won’t go before a judge or anything
If you believe you are entitled to both keep your job and not share the requested medical information with your employer, then your only recourse is to sue your employer to bar them from firing you, and take it before a judge.

IANAL but as I understand it, in the USA an employer can require you to get a medical declaration that you are fit for the requirements of the job if they see evidence that suggests that you might not be. You are then required to get that declaration from your doctor and give it to your employer. HIPAA doesn’t apply but it could go before a judge to decide if you refuse to provide it.

It is a misconception that the Privacy Rule creates a right for any individual to refuse to disclose any health information (such as chronic conditions or immunization records) if requested by an employer or business. HIPAA Privacy Rule requirements merely place restrictions on disclosure by covered entities and their business associates without the consent of the individual whose records are being requested; they do not place any restrictions upon requesting health information directly from the subject of that information.
