Rounding is a major source of mistakes. It is very common that cases rounded through multiple people develop major gaps in information. This is not as simple of a problem as you think it is.

It's a counterbalancing perspective that leads to healthy moderation. If you live in a bubble of 16 year olds gifted new brand new cars and you complain openly how yours got dented, it's only fair that everyone else outside of tha

> Most doctors are not spending solid 4hr blocks in flow focusing on a highly complex problem I'm sorry but this is exactly what I meant by my original post. You don't realize that 4hr blocks in flow is an enviable luxury. Gran

You should always be advocating for better hours and more of the rewards from your work. I support that. What makes me take it less seriously is framing it as a crisis in mental health. As much as people don't like comparisons the mark

I hear what you're saying, but I don't feel I said it was universal in the sense that you're describing it. On the whole I would rate the average software engineer as having a less stressful life than the average doctor. I ac

As someone who crossed over from medicine, I can attest that software engineers have it very very good. Appreciate what you have. I accept everyone's personal experiences with bad management, unreasonable timelines, and uninspiring pro

Exactly. Everyone laments issues with provider shortages and resource issues, but when the people doing the work optimize their strategies to get through their work faster, we get dumb articles like the NPR one linked above. As helpful as i

The study you linked effectively reinforces the points I made above. Given the search pattern used and the comments I made before about expectations maintained during a read, it follows that the described SSM effect is a source of errors. P

With all due respect there is so much absurdity in the assumptions being made with your linked article that it is almost not worth engaging with. However, I will for educational purposes. As someone who is trained in and comfortable reading

My perspective as someone that crossed over from medicine is that the software industry suffers from two current problems: lack of licensure and wild expectations. The standard hiring process has grown into a monstrous time sink on both sid

Right. It's a problem I don't see any near term solution for. It is not my area of expertise, but my expectation is that we will ultimately see some sort of externally applied miniaturized EEG/MR combo with improved spacial r

That is backwards. The cortisol measurement approximates the level of stress and fear. It does not cause it.

The foldable subdural ecog step feels like a "then draw the whole owl" situation. Foreign body reactions are a major problem that I don't see a satisfying solution for yet. Is the gradual signal degradation from the tissue re

Yes that was my first thought. The incentives seem high for cartels to sabotage something like that, and I imagine their tactics are not restricted to just destroying the product. As a rule, in any business you start, you are going to becom

With respect, this does not sound rooted in factual basis. Anyone who has taken physiology and been educated in anesthesia knows that there are numerous factors and feedback loops that decouple your theory of a direct link between ambient p

I think the problem is that this conversation is lacking in precision of language. Amongst doctors the word cancer carries minimal value. Describing a mass as (in simple terms) a locally invasive carcinoma or an encapsulated adenoma gives a

That's an assumption that isn't rooted in anatomy. You need nerves to measure signals on. Look up the comparative anatomy of the human cauda equina vs that of a dog. Where you're thinking of plugging into the body, in a human

Attempting to replicate a tail seems tangential to the purpose of the device. The human coccyx is a poor location to anchor anything given how the vertebrae are not equipped to handle force, and there is effectively zero musculature to supp

To some degree you are correct, but you are conflating processes that occur at different scales. And important part of a functional immune system is checkpointing and surveillance of cells. Cells with errors in transcription in theory are f

Unless they have plans to increase the specificity of these activated neutrophils, this appears to have limited long term usefulness. Upregulating inflammatory cytokine expression in a nonspecific manner like this has undesirable consequenc

I found what looks to be the same system on Pubmed[1] because the linked article lacked any measures of sens/spec. I do like how they ran it in two different workflows, of which the high sensitivity model seems most practical. Ideally

In rural areas of the US it is common for children to enroll in 4H which includes lessons in animal husbandry. Children can show various livestock at fairs and they conclude with auctions of said pets for consumption. Comparing it to factor

The poster above you is incorrect in many respects, but your statement that "cancer doesn't grow in muscle cells" is also misguided. There are numerous muscle and muscle adjacent tumors that arise at various levels of differe
