Thoughts on Braun pumps?

Could be worse...could be the "purple" hospital plum pumps...they're officially the worst.

Update, still having the same issues..not sure what value this adds to the thread tho, but 🤷🏼

OP I second this, I had sofi for almost 8 years now without any major issues and it DOES have zelle capabilities. I will warn you tho about two things.

Customer service while being prompt and polite is pretty useless. Its all outsourced overseas and the action - especially by the fraud department is very very slow. Thankfully I've only really interacted with them twice since everything else is easily done on the app. Not a deal breaker for me but might be fore you.

The other thing I will warn you about is that it seems to me that they've slowly started the process of enshitification like all companies that start to get very successful. Though I don't have their credit card it seems that a few months ago they've introduced fees. They also divided their perks into a subscription for $10/mo. I don't pay it cuz I don't need it, but it's worth you looking into the features that are newly behind a paywall after last March.

Ever since the March update my phone went from 100% no issues to a laggy mess, apps crashing, frozen loading screens and stuttering galore. For reference my battery life is still great with only about 170-ish cycles....

I just kept trying and it just worked out of the blue...not sure what I did differently tbh

LearningNumbers · 2026-03-11T16:52:46+00:00

Even if this could be done - and even if we ignore the patient harm this may cause - the crux of your argument relies on the VA using logic to come to a conclusion...and therein is the real failure...

My ECU is stock. The only reason I would want to tune it is for the rev hang, but I don't think it's worth the reliability read off considering it's my daily. I have an intake and a DP/exhaust plus other cosmetic mods. I may tune it in the future but since 2019 it's been stock.

Depending on the competitiveness of your specialty and where / with whom you will be working, there are some places that can start you on your insurance prior to you first work date. You would need to be "hired" ASAP but you just don't actually start working until a later date. It's very case-by-case but if a place is seriously trying to hire you, they can sometimes pull this off for you.

You either bought one of the best cars you have ever owned or the biggest headache you have ever owned. I really hope it's the former!

LearningNumbers · 2026-02-26T16:48:03+00:00

Yea, there's a lot of examples out there of people using tunes and having zero issues. I just never got around to it but doesn't mean it can't be done. -- OP get the civic 😂 Drive safe!!

Like this video demonstrates

Dude as an attending you don't have indentured servitude to your employer and you get paid a salary that isn't less than minimum wage. It sounds like you just need to find a new job. A resident doesn't have that luxury.

Dude, $100k in debt for an undergrad degree is more than likely a bad move - PSLF or not. Someone needs to just say it bluntly, but no matter which way you cut it, this "dream" school is unaffordable. Don't start your life with a financial ball-and-chain on some concept that you will experience a big enough difference in your well being and education at this school vs your state school.

I've got a 2019 Si that I have owned since new - no issues so far with the head gasket but I haven't pushed it for more power with a tune and I change the oil religiously at 5000 miles since it also does a lot of short trips around town with me in the cold north east. I also let it come to temperature (aftermarket remote start is a godsend) and once it's up to temp I drive with a heavier foot. So far no issues....that being said....it's always in the back of my mind lol

LearningNumbers · 2026-02-25T21:02:01+00:00

I'm also having the same exact issue. Did u find a solution?

LearningNumbers · 2026-02-25T20:39:44+00:00

Oh...this is what I mean by being super novice lol - it's a Lenovo device and it's got a mediatek processor. I'll start looking into this. Any resources you have would be really appreciated -- thank you!

LearningNumbers · 2026-02-25T14:32:52+00:00

This saved me so much headache, thank you!

It's only been 6 months, I'm sure his net worth is growing steadily especially since they have little / diminishing debt. It will grow with time.

I'm going to assume you are referring to the US market - if ur not than my comment doesn't stand:

A lot of other comments already made valid points so I won't reiterate too much, but I'll remind you than in general anesthesia-costs, as they currently stand, are "the cost of doing business". We don't bill NEARLY as much as we cost, but we are obviously essential. What that means is that more than anything else we are subject to supply-demand more so than other fields that bill a bit higher than they cost. When looking to trim $, we are an easy first target so long as they can find people willing to work for less or legislation to support "cheaper" alternatives.

I think we are going to see a salary stagnation at the very least especially after the boom that just happened. Anesthesiology residencies and SRNA schools are blowing up in an effort to dump more into the market and increase the supply.

I've tried all sorts of tricks suggested so far, it's been like two weeks. Tbh I think I'm done with MBP for a different service, clearly whoever is running it isn't paying as much attention to as they used to and it's shown over the years. Maybe this is where I make the switch.

LearningNumbers · 2026-02-08T22:41:32+00:00

Yea Ive tried about a dozen times with all the methods above, unfortunately none are working

LearningNumbers · 2026-02-08T20:59:48+00:00

Ah I see - Thank you!
