Out of curiousity I did just that. And aside from skin tone, I got identical sets of people in khakis and button-downs hugging in front of houses, white picket fences, and couches. And found interracial families under black, but not white.

The author clearly means to mock other people's perception of the natives as "stupid savages", as implied by directly following this statement with "Except, this is a perfect metaphor for most of what is called “science,

Because that opens them to a giant slew of malpractice claims. Your 3000$ doesn’t come close to covering the risk.

I would add jalapeño at the butter stage, not the egg stage. Most of its flavor diffuses into the fats, so putting it directly into the egg will more-or-less confine its flavor and then steam it.

It matters that the person theyre responding to is literally asserting, and I quote, “the color of the beekeepers' skin is irrelevant and appears to have been an addition made by the poster.” It’s ... the point under discussion in this

The title of the page I’m looking at is the same as the post here, and is in a section entitled “Black Voices.” I don’t see where the poster changed anything.

Jalapeño and goat cheese are a wonderful choice; I’d expect that to be quite delicious. At what stage(s) of the process were they added? How did you cook the mushroom?

Tell us more about your process. Omelettes are pretty basic stuff, so odds are if yours aren’t coming out reasonably well it’s because of a triviality taken for granted. Do you add your spices to the oil or the egg? Which spices?

Indeed. Especially in neurology, where the tissue is non-regenerative. Hopefully we can find ways to slow tissue destruction - often we cannot - but that’s a far cry short from reversing it.

Dunning-Kruger applies to medicine as fully as it does to any other technical field. When people say things like “all (highly technically trained specialists) are idiots these days, they have no idea how to (do their jobs, which I am untrai

Close. The bigger issue is that reimbursement has fallen precipitously while documentation requirements have risen greatly. People who loved the job when they had 20 mins with a patient and two minutes of charting and had a comfy life with

One of the doctors took them seriously, did a biopsy, and gave them a diagnosis. They did not like their diagnosis because “idiopathic” means “we don’t know what causes this,” which the patient translated as “go the fuck away.” As if all hu

They give the denominator in the article, as well as context around what mortality rates are normal for comparable programs. A headline isn’t a replacement for reading the article.

It’s upsetting to see how prevalent it is even in this thread. More than a few people are jumping in without having read the article to simply support that same narrative - better a random white lady than nothing! For what it’s worth, for e

She didn’t even google the right symptoms. She googled “allergic reaction” rather than “transfusion reaction,” which is why she found herself looking for a rash.

No. “Random white woman” is not a medical qualification. If you are googling allergic reactions - and not even knowledgeable enough to do That (in transfusion reactions you are not looking for a rash) - you are absolutely not equipped to be

Lie detectors are woefully unreliable, but PDs use them. Forensic “matching” of bullets to guns is basically pseudoscience, but continues to be used in court to convict people. Roadside drug analysis kits are less useful than dowsing rods,

Most health insurance has a profit margin in the vicinity of 10%. They introduce many problems into the healthcare market, but if you think they’re the reason people can’t afford healthcare, you are mistaken. I don’t mean to sound snarky he

I tried, and could not. And I’m baseline a little skeptical because the NHS has a history of pushing very poorly designed fad research precisely like this.

Hospitals will have all of those things the moment people are willing to pay for them. Some hospitals have those now - for the sort of hospitals that predominantly serve patients with excellent insurance for high margin activities or who ar
