I think there is a definitional problem with "kids" vs "infants" vs "newborns" which are all difficult to define, the type of anaesthesia that was administered and we are also talking about 40 years ago. Our un

It obviously varies on place of practice and the way you were taught. My understanding is the evidence is pretty clear that it helps but happy to defer to your lived experience.

My wife is a doctor and provided me (layperson) the following context. Apparently EEG is now used in most adult surgeries and has been increasing over time. It is used as a marker of how 'asleep' you are to guide how much medicati

My wife is a doctor and looked into the history of this for a bit more context. Apparently, there were some cases in 1987 where premature neonates were paralysed but not given general anaesthesia due to risk of immediate death. This led to

My wife is a doctor and has a lot of negative things to say about Epic. I think they have succeeded due to vendor capture and lock-in in spite of their shoddy software that doesn't actually meet the needs of the users. Every doctor I&#

Some of the early comments here almost read as astroturfing from friends of 'sama. This article provides interesting context to one of the most consequential SV events of the decade.

Strongly recommend going through the process of creating a character in MUGEN/Ikemen. It's easy enough (with some legacy rough edges), and with Ikemen you can use it in multiplayer. There is a lot of depth in implementing specific

As multiple people in this thread have commented, most providers give you a result, a red highlight of the abnormal result, and a reference range. We don't know exactly what the post author received of course, but it's pretty like

How is your adrenal gland nodule related to your genetic profile? AFAIUI, they are not related in any way.

That would actually increase public trust in your post, I think.

But there is an ER, urgent care, etc. available at most if not all times? Google is also available and would have accomplished the same result.

These have existed for decades, although it might not always be surfaced. My provider gives me the reference range with every blood test and a red line for abnormal so I can know immediately where to start looking.

Question to which I don't have the answer: does an instant LLM response that says you may have cancer, infection or some other malady based on a report alleviate your suspicions? Or would you rather wait for a measured discussion with

This doesn't seem relevant to the post, rather an anecdote where you confirmed that you had EBV in the past with the help(?) of ChatGPT (which you already knew). I don't see where you diagnosed the cause of your rashes.

I read this post with my wife (medical doctor) and we agreed that this breathless post missed the mark a bit. ChatGPT gave exactly the advice from a Google search for low platelets and rash. A call to any doctor, nurse practitioner or urgen

The same George who sold iPhone exploits to Chinese grey market firms for a bit of extra cash? It's hard to take his points seriously here, and to be honest he has always skated erratically from point to point in his career. He already

'sama is just maximising his upside in a completely rational way here. He knows he's the big fish, so he attempts to dissuade the little fish before they can even grow. I don't see a problem in him doing that, almost all VCs

Given we are on HN, it seems more likely that the claim originated on substack. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29938732 this may be one of the progenitor threads.

Yes, I have a side project making ~$40k/year doing this in a niche market. I am fortunate in that I have some volunteers helping me with support so all up I spend about 5-10 hours per week doing support and development work. In terms o

Reminiscent of the changes to the Microsoft Graph API, which personally I wasn't a fan of. Hope stripe can maintain its developer first mentality.

Seems like some of the comments need to learn that a big hypertrophic heart is much worse for you than a normal sized heart. Folks: GLP-1s have demonstrated benefit from heart failure, and this heart muscle change is probably mechanistic in

Can you expand on this? I don't think this is the whole story. Perhaps a concrete example would help.

This is orthogonal to your GP point which was about salary. There are a lot of issues with the teaching pipeline AFAIUI so it is difficult to comment on n=1 examples.
