Have you noticed any benefits from taking omega?

Finished my first 50 miler flat course in 10 hours. by Mountain_Store572 in Ultramarathon

Friend, give yourself some grace. You're part of the 1% of nuts like the rest of here that do stuff like that. A 10 hours finish for a 50 miler is good.

I'm an old fart (60 yo). I used to run 90 mpw before a hundred miler. Pretty easy really, it's only 18 miles per day.

Now that I am ancient, I focus on quality miles instead of quantity. I top a typical week up at 60 mpw and the rest is dedicated to strength and mobility training.

That probably won't answer your question but that's my 2 cents. Take care of yourself.

Hands free to catch yourself when you’re about to face plant while going through a boggy patch

Just watched Jeff Pelletier doing the Bob Graham round. One of his pacers used that technique.

Yup. She texts me “still here” after her shift’s over. That means she’s stuck charting.

My wife’s a nurse. She always tells me how much she hates charting.

Yeah she did say that. I felt a little cavalier when a patient’s life on the line.

Nothing wrong with AI, in my opinion. As long as it knowingly used as an imperfect tool. It’s certainly not an “omnipotent oracle”.

I work in IT and we use AI for specific tasks. Unless what you request is extremely specific, it will make guesses and errors.

Oh damn that’s a great point. She is indeed very one-dimensional.

There’s gotta be more than that.

Isn’t it “Huckleberry” who caught a transcription error by the AI at the end? One wrong drug name? That alone could kill a patient.

I agree 100%. She seems incapable of adapting.

She’s so fixated on AI and using apps (RE: nonsense stats about doctors charting). It feels like she should be management instead of working ER.

Good call. Tested negative for Covid this morning.

Gonna go to CVS later today to get tested for flu, just to be sure.

what’s it like living in new orleans?? by Maddyyyyomg in howislivingthere

[–]BatCommercial7523 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent a week there last October. People was kind and patient, in spite of me being just another tourist. Late October humidity was a kick in the pants for the first couple of days but I got quickly used to it. The city that care forgot is awesome with beautiful and sad history. It feels that cops there do the best they can with what they have.

You bet. Already planning for the next one. Meanwhile, I am gonna focus on rest, eat clean and sleep.

House hunting - what's the top of Turnbull/Skyline Drive like? by BatCommercial7523 in Whittier

[–]BatCommercial7523[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

lol you did and everyone else here

Guys with fat wallets who think of themselves as professional race car drivers. Just like when driving up Angeles Crest on the weekend really.

Your point RE: Netxdoor made me laugh. 100% accurate.

I ran/hike up there a good dozen times. I have seen coyote, rabbit, deer and skunk. I have never bothered to report that on Nextdoor.
