What do you mean by this? If you misinterpreted, I wasn't referring to you. Or do you think something like I've stated doesn't/cannot happen? Meant this to be an example of other ways "burnout" can happen.

It could also be a 15 year old who started suffering from a debilitating musculoskeletal chronic illness at age 11, without parents who gave the slightest shit about them and zero community support, still trying their hardest to get through

Pardon me if I'm not doing my due diligence in research... It's called the Wall Street Journal, correct? Didn't Wall Street just get... y'know, a few trillion un-traced doll-hairs? Perhaps... they could fund the journali

Sigh... while journalism does need money - can somebody post non paywalled text? I'd like to read this.

Well, sorry to burst your bubble, but the "solidarity" amongst engineers in this thread is somewhat close to "fuck the money, be more of a moral ethical human" which is so, so far from what you've described. I don&#

Holy crap lmao. Are you completely oblivious as to how much of a dick you sound like? Here's a societies claimed moral compass nice thing to do: tell him you aren't friends, possibly give him the reasons why, and leave it like tha

You're going to have to specify... You talking like, U.S. declaration of Independence, or more/less recent than that...? While my mind is fuzzier now, I like to think it was a "things change for the better" else - engine

The only issue I do have with leaving is the war thing. The past few years, I've really been telling myself we're probably at the point that China really does have the U.S. militarily beat if it comes down to it... but despite how

Quite tired and ill right now so I'm unfortunately not going to be able to write this out even slightly well... but for some reason, I want to post the thought anyway so I will. (Note: I'm a U.S. citizen) In short: As an engineeri

Inquire with the manufacturer listed on the packaging? There's always some sort of chain to information on packaging, though unless there are laws in place against this, I think we're moving closer to that starting with a qr code

Looks like somebody beat me to the point... But - a US citizen loses their freedom of speech when they run a publicly traded corp? What do you have to say about the president then...

Ahh... yes. Your somebody's relative's anecdotal proof has definitely put this case to rest. I suggest nobody prose any further questions. Do we know if this person even has a relative? Maybe they have schizophrenia and it's

You should read this https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/02/magazine/why-was-their-br... IIRC "dementia" is literally just a description of symptoms. The real truth seems to be that we just barely

If you don't mind answering, how old were you at the time and what was your proximity to Cedars-Sinai? I have slight regret with not double booking an appointment with Schievink when he personally called me. For some likely completely

If you have zero external support system and literally no money/income... it's an absolute shitshow, and that's about all I can tell you. Dr. Ian Carroll is arguably the best resource in the world. Starting here is probably

If this story moves you, and you have the means, consider donating to CSF Leak research at Stanford. Cerebrospinal Fluid Leaks are something that can completely mimic a large amount of FTD symptoms, and even in the care of utmost profession

I can't understand the line of thought some of you are having. I can barely live and function in my daily life, as well as trying to not become homeless and die. How do you expect me to successfully lobby anybody, especially when they

I don't get to choose where to live. Unless you want another homeless in the streets of SoCal who plagues Greyhound for their doctors appointments. I was born in the 8th poorest community in the U.S., by parents who were born and lived

No, the ideal way for it to be solved is for the U.S. government as a collective to give a shit about science, which they don't, and I doubt will within my lifetime. Care for one of my issues is only conducted as Stanford and Cedars-Si
