I think being able to live and not worry that the government will not limit your rights is a privilege.

I think not being subject to having your rights removed by legislation is a privilege. Consider this: a woman in Texas doesn't follow the news. She tries to seek out an abortion. Now she is unable to get that healthcare she previously

I've been told by a number of my attending physicians that it is unlikely that acetaminophen would have received FDA approval if it was being reviewed today because of it' small therapeutic window and unknown mechanism of action

One of my attendings has a running joke where he takes fresh interns in July and tells them "I will take you to <most expensive restaurant in my city> if you can take this patient's blood pressure correctly." He's

If you had to see as many patients as your doctors do, you would be rushing around too.

I the term small molecule has a specific meaning in biopharma and the biochemical formula is almost certainly not going to reveal much information. Might as well just use the convention of the compound ID. Related, in the supplemental data

To add to the pedantry, I believe the correct word is initialism.

I guess it was published in 2022. It hadn't become as ubiquitous yet. I would look forward to a follow up that includes some commentary on AI accelerating these issues

Not sure where an unreliable, very expensive to fix, poorly QC'd cars are a "superior product" but it's not where I live. The charging infrastructure is a great feat though.

They published their strategy. It utilizes the bioluminescence pathway from a fungus that uses caffeic acid to generate light. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7610436/

There are multiple ways to install Koreader now. I think the most common is to use KFMon and NickelMenu which installs the quasi-operating system into a book in your main menu.

I have to agree with you. I don't understand the obsession with Mars either. We evolved for millions of years to live right where we are now, if we don't mess it up first. If all of these people only had that much passion for maki

Oh, sorry, I see what you mean now. I think it's legal compliance. Maybe less legal compliance as much as hospital policy compliance though
104.
by dillydogg 3y ago
Maybe letting them see patients? I feel like this is a false dichotomy. I guess legal compliance of I had to choose, so it wouldn't lead to insane numbers of patients per hour

In my experience in the clinic, the attendings are spending an incredible amount of their time doing busywork required by management instead of actually caring for patients.

In my outpatient family medicine clerkship, I saw over 25 patients a day. 20 minute appointments from 8 AM until 5 PM. It was a whirlwind of activity from beginning to end. I don't think in 4 months I saw my preceptor get a 20 minute l

Yes, of course. I made a pretty books statement with no support. My friends who work in public health research despise the foundation because they are absolute gatekeepers on what can and cannot be funded. If you are trying to do research t

Poor people spend more of their income on things that have sales tax. In other words, someone who is worried about their 401k is probably spending less of their income each month by percentage compared to someone living paycheck to paycheck

Do you not care about people who do not make SWE wages?

Yeah it's very funny hearing my dad talk about how nice it is to have no income tax in Washington (he's a dentist). But when you tell him that the relatively higher income tax is worse for poor people he doesn't seem to agree

Who is going to pay for the treatments without supporting data? I don't think people have the right to demand healthcare workers to administer whatever strikes their fancy either. I know you aren't necessarily suggesting this, but

I do the same thing, except using org mode instead of markdown. I've really come to love org mode for writing.

That being said, I haven't read this myself, so I have to emphasize that I ought to take a look at it before passing judgment. There have been a number of grand hypotheses for cancer that haven't panned out. That doesn't mean

by dillydogg 3y ago
I haven't read this, so I'm sorry, but I cannot really comment on it. I've heard of the Warburg hypothesis but I haven't seen data that support this as the root cause of cancer. I've had my colleagues talk about thi

Yeah I do cancer immunobiology and p53, myc, mTOR whatever have been the mythical pan-cancer targets forever. There's just no way they are going to be it. Could an anti-myc be another tool in the toolbox? Sure. But it'll just go i

> Either way, scientists don’t have time to really learn all this AND the science they are doing. And it all changes every few years or so. This is how I see it as well. I'm an immunologist, and it feels impossible for me to keep on

I wonder what the reaction of some of the people who browse this forum would be if the output of their careers were so commonly pirated. Somehow, I think most think that this argument doesn't apply.

Same experience here, it was effortless. But it is enough to justify stealing from those journalists, it seems.
