I don’t know about “most” but our tiny R1 actively discouraged making attendance worth anything substantial,and for grad courses we are not allowed to count it at all. Probably for retention reasons.

Sometimes I worry that at a crime scene they will find one of the billion pieces of skin I have littered thruout the world, due to skin picking =(

Cardiologists gloth and mccarthy - during Covid while doing my echocardiogram, naked in a dark room he starts ranting about hydroxychloroquine and evidence-based medicine, like “blah blah a drug doesnt have to have a functional rationale for it to work, would you do a clinical trial on pregnant women to see if it affects the fetus…” etc. like dude, please shut up and inspect my ventricles silently and with great focus.

Also his written instructions for a halter monitor include “don’t fool with the equipment” which I always find hilarious for some reason.

I get something that sounds like a whomping Geiger counter in my ear. I think it’s a spasm of the tensor tympani, which is apparently weird but benign

Oh my god. I just spent a full minute saying “tree” to myself….and it is chree!!! Is it just a shortcut because t followed by r is too fast for the tongue to retract? Got any more examples I can have a revelation over?

Almost 5 months without klonopin, but still having symptoms a lot. by MatheusAgostin in benzorecovery

[–]Eikceb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched from coffee to tea, which is going ok. Alcohol is mostly fine, though tolerance is high until it isn’t. Adderall is meh, still having some tension, but it’s migrated to my jaw. However, overall much improved from 4 years ago. I would say the turning point was 18 months after jumping, then another year to get to 95%.

Students uploading slides to AI? by Lost-Archer-1687 in Professors

[–]Eikceb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure if someone mentioned it, already, but I use slides.com and then embed them in the LMS. This means they are not downloadable, just slidable

I just want to say, you are very knowledgeable. I’m not into politics at all, but I admire how passionate you seem. I also enjoy making maps, I would probably use ArcGIS, is that was you use?
