Are you talking about converting people from Reddit to Voten? Maybe the point is that they want more people to actively contribute rather than just lurk? It could just be a different opinion on what a Reddit alternative could look like.

To be fair, "logging in" is just making a username and password. No Email is required. That's really not a huge deal to me, but maybe others disagree.

I believe the condition was looked at on autopsy, as the coroner gave said report. My problem with this, is that even if you do an autopsy, lots of arrhythmias are not "visible", as they are conduction problems. So what's to

The diabetic retinopathy study (and the somewhat recent stanford dermatology study) were the first ML studies I had read about that blew me away in terms of their sensitivities and specificities, as compared to real doctors. Your comment on

Yeah, you may get more specifically looking for the journey or process, but you lose the other 90% of funders, as they soon realize that few kickstarters actually pan out.

As far as I'm aware, no bipolar patient should be on narcotics. Standard of care is mood stabilizer plus atypical antipsychotic.

Until you just referred to them as AJ, I had no idea that they were the same as Al Jazeera. I saw videos on YouTube by AJ and just figured they were some other entity.

One thing I'm curious about: do liquid diet like Soylent change the brush border in our intestines in an appreciable way? If I went completely soylent for a few months, and then tried to eat something more...raw, would there be any cha

I too have used soylent for breakfast, for maybe the last 4 or 5 months. And funnily enough, I've gained more weight! Which was the goal for me, as I'm a little underweight and needed to stop skipping breakfast. I've been usi

There's another article floating around announcing other devices as low as $190 running Windows 10 S that will probably actually compete with Chromebooks.

Okay, so I'll admit that about halfway through writing out some rebuttals to what you were saying, I realized that you made some really good points. I clearly missed a lot of these on my brief skim of the article, and I think I underst

There are Windows 10 launchers for Android that are decent. Not exactly the same, but you might like it more than I did.

So how granular can the price be? Say you need stents for your coronary artery disease. Do you price at the number of stents? The number of catheters used? Just a flat rate for a procedure, regardless of the complexity?

I respectfully disagree with you on Wikipedia's article on sex assignment. To me, it covers the issue in detail, going over the mental health aspects that have persisted. Additionally, it explicitly notes that the surgeries if done in

Couldn't you have gone above the editor? Like a moderator, or an administrator, regarding the edit? Not saying that what happened to you is fine, but if it does happen then you have to go further.

Sure, but there's a time and a place, if you know what I mean. One directly undermines access to information, whereas another has to do with copyright law.

It also has to do with culture freeze. When people leave their country of origin, they try and retain the culture they left with, and fail to change with the country over decades. It's a type of coping mechanism for when they enter an

I would imagine any engineer or someone who went through trade school. Maybe they don't make enough to be considered middle class?

Sorry, but I'm not sure I understand. I was under the impression that different doctors could already charge different rates for the same procedures. Insurance companies could just refuse to reimburse after a certain percentage, though

It's for 2 pens I believe, last time I checked on their website. The company is trying to get insurance to cover the costs, so cost for you wouldn't technically change, but it just increases healthcare costs all around for no reas

A more elegant solution in my mind, barring price fixing, would just be price transparency. Let people see the costs and use their own judgement to pick what they value more.

So the vagus nerve, when you sense that you are about to eat, stimulates your stomach to release enzymes that help break down what you intake. This leads to a feedback chain that releases and inhibits other enzymes down in your intestines t

I think that's a more accurate reason. And it's equally likely that theranos just turned down investors that tried to dig too deep.

by epmaybe 10y ago
I think you're referring to the people working for theranos itself. However, investors generally try and do their due diligence before investing. Did none of the investors seek an expert to verify the claims made by Theranos prior to i

I'm not the authority on journalism by any means, but I'm happy to provide my own take. There have been some stories on NPR (and most news sites as far as I can tell) that I've felt more knowledgeable about, and realized thin

Are you saying that NPR doesn't have many alternative facts? I think the point the original comment was trying to make was more that NPR doesn't have much in depth coverage when it comes to science. You'll think NPR does an e

How is opera like chromium at this point? I've been using safari mostly, so I've not kept up with browsers and development.

I think it depends on the academic center. Where I'm at some of the clinicians that don't do any research are some of the most highly regarded faculty. I'd say a good combination of both academics and skills are needed. As an
