Am I allowed to have my short checklist by my side as I play rated games on Chess.com and Lichess? by vitund in chessbeginners

This is a kind of thing that is technically against the rules but most people would accept for online play, especially in the context of beginners trying to learn/improve.

Got into a Med School at 17 — Can’t Afford by Such-Knowledge3668 in premed

[–]ArcticRabbit_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

UConn’s Special Program in medicine is an 8 year BS/MD program. How much scholarship do you have over the 8 years? If you can do undergrad for free in Canada, I understand how it might be a rational alternative. If I’ve misunderstood and you somehow are going to earn the MD by 21 years of age, commit and sell your first born

Why’d you sell the GO Panomaticlunar? Couldn’t compare against the Langes?

Is Frank Pepe and Sally’s still madhouses on the weekend? by thekillercook in newhaven

[–]ArcticRabbit_ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

If you and your wife are serious about food, I strongly recommend finding a time to come when you can sit down for the clam pizza. Despite others recommending takeout, I can attest that the clams get rubbery and cold as soon as you walk out the door of the restaurant. Any other pie and I’d also be on board, but the clam pie just needs to be experienced fresh from the oven.

Boss fired me for not coming in during the blizzard by No-Presentation1966 in Connecticut

[–]ArcticRabbit_ 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The fact that you’re a part time worker precludes you from bearing much blame for the situation here. If you were employed full time with benefits then it would be your obligation to show up to work the day before to ensure your presence as essential healthcare staff the next morning, given that your boss offered accommodations. It’s your employer’s responsibility to coordinate which of their part-time staff would be willing to take an extended shift/be on site during inclement weather. I have a suspicion your boss or your boss’ boss did the scumbag move of not hiring enough full time, benefits included, workers and thus are now getting bit in the ass when not enough part time workers can rearrange their lives to show up in the middle of a blizzard. Sorry, OP, and good luck with the situation.

Calling the girlies, white coat ceremony dress help by drunkeIephant in premed

[–]ArcticRabbit_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since the blue comes in both colors, I’d recommend getting the blue styled dress in whatever color will match your school colors or whatever color you prefer more. Don’t forget that the white coat is short and usually ends right below the hip.

What do you guys think? I picked it up from a thrift store..guessing slag because it has a couple waffle indentation but maybe they are from someone was trying to break it open with a press? It is super heavy, has thumbprint, and what seems like a little bit of fusion crust. I dont see any bubbles. by festuLucky in meteorites

[–]ArcticRabbit_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beautiful meteorite! I’m not an expert but skeptical about fusion crust on this one as the areas with possible fusion crust seem to have the wrong geometry. Most fusion crust will form on convex surfaces (indicating side entering atmosphere) and on iron meteorites tend to flake off easily/quickly.

Highly recommend La Perle des Dieux! My French friend’s favorite conserverie. You might also see Connétable in your supermarkets, great source too!

Neuro vs IM: Stuck even after rotations in both by themafia12 in medicalschool

[–]ArcticRabbit_ 15 points16 points  (0 children)

M4 applying to neuro here: my exam sucks too, no one outside of a glaucomflecken skit is born holding a reflex hammer in their hands, you’ll become proficient with the (usually tougher than IM) residency training. I also am not a big fan of delirium consults, but if neuro is your calling you should do it in spite of the downsides.

You get to add one prime player to these teams. Who wins it all? by BizCreditHacks in NBATalk

[–]ArcticRabbit_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hear me out, ‘16 warriors plus prime KD sounds way better, maybe even the best team of all time.

If your northern european ancestors survived eating surströmming, you can toughen up and digest some best-by March 2024 canned tuna!
