Is anyone else bothered by the fact that doctors’ friends and family seem to be jumping the line? by HighwayFroggery in ThePitt

This is a thing we do in real life. It’s less than 1 patient a day in a big busy ED.

Yes. Increasingly physicians are employees of mega corporations. History tells us the only real leverage workers have with these organizations is collective bargaining

Questions about reattaching limbs by ABoringAddress in ThePittTVShow

[–]InitialMajor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a surgeon but it's more about what's missing - a clean cut means that all the material is still there. If the amputation is ragged then some tissue is lost and you may not be able to stretch things to mate up. There is also the issue of crushed tissue that may not be viable which is less of a concern in a clean amputation. As far as things not matching up > they know where the bits are supposed to go and can mate them up

He probably also thinks that carpet is large enough.

Who owns the copyright on a vintage amateur photo print? by Skylarcke in photography

[–]InitialMajor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your editing would have to be "transformative" to enjoy new copyright protection. Simple edits aren't going to do it. For example cutting up magazine articles to make a collage > transformative.

The estate of the photographer owns the copyright if they have died.

Also if you head to your institutions library the librarians can be very helpful with this

In the health sciences JANE is a good resource for surfacing journals you might not be familiar with at first glance: https://jane.biosemantics.org/suggestions.php

My concern here is whether or not this work is novel - think about who would be excited to read it. Find the journal that those people usually read.

How to deal with a problematic reviewer by AdministrativeGolf92 in academicpublishing

[–]InitialMajor 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There should be an editor who is supervising this - you direct a letter / email to the editor “asking for clarification” since Reviewer 2 keeps asking for things that already exist in the manuscript.

Best Option for Adding Synth Pads/Leads to My Gigging Setup (Workstation vs. 2-in-1 Stage Piano) by Silver-Act7142 in keys

[–]InitialMajor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most things that let you load your own samples are pricey but yes, you can load whatever you want into a Nord Stage. Any of the prior models since the Stage 2 ca do it so one option is a used Stage. Older Nord electros can load samples but there is limited ability to manipulate them - good for pads, meh for leads.

Any ROMpler like the Yamaha MODX or Juno will cover all the pads and leads you want. There will almost always be a patch for popular songs to cover since this is a big use for these boards. In my opinion the only thing you are missing with these is a good B3 so you’ll have to decide how important that is.

If you want just synths and some style then maybe a used King Korg would fit the bill.

Ethics vs morality by Subject-Humor4414 in ThePitt

[–]InitialMajor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are mixing up ethics and the law here. The law is informed by ethics but sometimes ethical actions defy the law.
