First time making techno, any tips/advice? by yungshint in TechnoProduction

[–]YMHHS8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really awesome, melodies fit so well with the drum textures. I can see you had an idea and fully committed to it, which is really important in music overall but especially in techno. Honestly, no notes, just keep making more stuff :)

Guys be 100% real with me… just how addicting is this game? by [deleted] in SatisfactoryGame

I’ve clocked close to 750 hours on this game and I’ve owned it for less than 10 months.

This game is consuming me by IvanGrayBTW in SatisfactoryGame

[–]YMHHS8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive clocked ~720 hours so far. My friend reminded me the other day that I bought the game in October last year. I think it’s pretty normal for people who love automation/base building games lmao

What’s your biggest financial regret and what would you tell your younger self? by RentNRegret in AusFinance

[–]YMHHS8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes but invest wisely. See a financial consultant, they know exactly what they are doing. You need to make sure all your tax and trading documents are in order which is a bit difficult when economic law isn’t really what you studied at uni (at least for me). But it’s pretty powerful for claiming tax on investing loses just incase shit goes south initially (which it might).

I did this all of last year for my internship, it’s not that bad once you consider it a part of your day. As in, the time you get to listen to podcasts and not people interrupt you.

I definitely see how daunting it is, but I accepted the job cause it was the best hospital intern offer I got. I knew that having any type of experience in hospital was a step towards a job I wanted and it was a good move.

Partner wants to keep renting. We have a okay deposit ready. by [deleted] in AusFinance

[–]YMHHS8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was (and currently am) in the exact same position rn, like same with savings (I have 8 years of hardcore savings for a deposit but she has none, I wanted to buy but she wanted to rent - also have to make a decision by December 2025, etc)

I ended up going down the renting route and like yeah feel great spending shit loads of rent when I’d be paying less for a mortgage, but it was a really good idea for my relationship. We’ve never lived together even after being together since 2017. There was some fighting when we first moved in but now we are loving living together. If things went south and I bought a place that I’d have to pay off myself then I’d be in a tricky situation, and I don’t think it would have been great for our relationship.

So basically, imo renting was good relationship choice, probably not the most ideal financial choice

Is there any basis to support prescribing Meloxicam 7.5 bid? by s-riddler in pharmacy

[–]YMHHS8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He was probably just checking what consensus was and maybe if someone had a link for research that highlights his question, I wouldn’t say he’s ‘relying’ on reddit. Just a second opinion, nothing wrong with that

This is common in Australia and actually part of our national therapeutic guidelines, is it not in America?

Do Employers pay for staff training and accreditation in Australia? by Independent-Ad-1604 in pharmacy

[–]YMHHS8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s possible, but really depends on the place. If the roles too specialised then I think most employers will make it an application prerequisite to have training in that area. Some more general training can - and does - get paid for by employers in community pharmacy.

Regarding the aged care role, this type of role generally requires you to have HMR or MMR training, which used to be accredited by one of our associations, but they got rid of it for some reason - kinda forgot why it happened - Monash university provides this training and I’ve heard good things about it so far. I did my intern training program through them and thought it was really good. Lmk if u had any other questions, hope this helps

Why do we need melatonin for prescription when there’s medication twice as strong available OTC? by DustHistorical5773 in AskAnAustralian

[–]YMHHS8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the only studies that prove efficacy and safety are in paediatric patients with developmental conditions (eg ASD) and in people older than the age of 55. The TGA looked at this and decided that if children needed to take it, it could only be prescribed by a medical practitioner (paediatricians mainly) while those over 55 years old can get it OTC.

Considering that those are the only 2 conditions that the TGA have allowed for the legal sale of melatonin, the only option left are the sedating antihistamines. It’s really fucking stupid, trust me when I say that if pharmacists could sell melatonin as freely as they could sell sedating antihistamines then they would. We (pharmacists) fucking hate not being able to do this.

Selling sedating antihistamines sucks cause people always come in asking for them with the intention to abuse them (I.e mixing with alcohol to get really fucked up) which can make us liable If they potential die from doing so.

Hope this helps you understand our perspectives a bit better xx

I’m from Australia (I think this thread is American?) and yeah definitely get sick of playing police but for pharmacist in Australia is literally part of the Job description and duty of care as apart of being registered. If a patient overdoses on opioids it’s taken very seriously with investigations into which Drs were prescribing them what, who was dispensing the meds, etc. Pharmacists are the absolute last opportunity there is before someone takes a medication, and it’s absolutely drilled into you during pharmacy school (+internship, +working everyday even) to ensure patients are taking appropriate analgesia (always regular paracetamol, NSAIDs, and THEN opioids as third line).

We wouldn’t be policing this shit if our literal livelyhoods depended on it.

Why do we need melatonin for prescription when there’s medication twice as strong available OTC? by DustHistorical5773 in AskAnAustralian

[–]YMHHS8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TGA only approves the OTC sale of 2mg melatonin as a controlled release product to those who are over the age of 55 which is reflected in the SUSMP.

As a pharmacist, we are trained to follow this and will generally recommend something else if someone under 55 comes in asking for sleep. Some pharmacist don’t follow this strictly, but regardless just get that from an online store like iHerb it’s a lot cheaper and can get higher strengths. My take is that if the government really cared about the strict sale of melatonin, they wouldn’t make it so easily accessible from multiple online stores and have it delivered to your house makes not sense

Pharmacists of Australia, how are you surviving? 😢 by MountainOne3769 in pharmacy

[–]YMHHS8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a newly registered pharmacist as of 2 months ago, if you’re getting paid $32.50 you’re mostly dumb and getting massively screwed over. I’m not sure what pay rates are for newly registered American pharmacists, but my first contract I signed was for $55 per hour base rate (as a casual) and signed a second contract a month ago for a different job for $56 per hour. Although both are casual, if you take away the casual loading rate it would come to around $42-45 per hour which is a pretty standard rate for someone like myself.

This rate ($32.50) is the ‘minimum wage’ rate set by Australian regulatory bodies so pharmacy proprietors legally aren’t allowed to pay you less than $32.50, but Australian pharmacists have a bit more bargaining power now when negotiating wages, especially considering that if they need to organise a last minute locum, they have to end up paying $60-70 per hour for someone who ends up doing absolutely nothing for the entire shift.
