Medical twitter is fairly positive and a great way to learn about new papers and interact with educators and researchers. Check out the #foamed (Free Open Access Medicine) hashtag. I usually try to avoid following political people and kee

I don't get the hate; I played around with the Hololens for a bit and while the FOV issues are hard to ignore, both devices are steps forward into an interesting and likely THE interface for future computing. One can hope that if Magic

I think better diagnostic testing is one way to solve this. Oncology in some ways is easy since the data input is usually a set of biomarkers particular to that tumour (i.e. estrogen receptor, her2/neu, etc). It's probably the m

Emergency doctor here, I have to say that diagnosing a sick child is one of the hardest things you can do in medicine (aside from figuring out why someone is feeling 'dizzy'). The limiting step here is that we can't do blood

RMS is gonna be RMS. I just wish he was a more realistic advocate of open content. Creative Commons has taken off while GPL v3 is rarely used.

I fought this battle with a 64GB SSD, and gave up and cloned the drive onto a hybrid SSD/7200RPM drive (using EaseUS). I can't imagine what you went through to get it to fit on 30GB!

It seems to have a larger field of view. Hololens (I have one) is about the size of a credit card held out with your arm half extended. This one is the size of a VHS tape. Also, the unit appears to be lighter as processing is done by a p
