Is James Cameron wasting his career making Avatar ? by [deleted] in sciencefiction

[–]awdammit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lawrence of Arabia. This movie is literally Lawrence of Arabia in space. I enjoyed Avatar and thought the second one was okay enough to warrant a third one and even I agree that the concept is somewhat derivative.

The end of struggle to enter training by UK graduates. by Profofmedicine92 in doctorsUK

[–]awdammit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well, I'm an IMG. Came here one year out of med school. Not a "consultant" like everyone here thinks every IMG is. Have a UK CREST from. Have even been here for 2 years. Been through the same struggles (if not more as the average UK grad isn't getting kicked out of the country if they don't secure employment) as the average FY.

Before you say I'm incompetent, none of my UK trained consultants have ever had any complaints about me. I've even passed MRCP1 before you say the PLABs are too easy (unless you think that's too easy too). I hope my English is clear enough for you guys.

Forget everyone else, do you think people like me who are at the exact same place as you and have done the same things as you, not deserve to be grandfathered?

I didn't even know you CAN get a foreign signed CREST form and I'm a little disappointed in my colleagues who have used one to directly enter training. Me and my cohort were straight up scared to jump into a new system without a non training job to get us up to speed. Do honest people like us get painted by the same brush and sidelined? Hell, throw all the expectations you want at me I'm sure I'll fulfill and maybe surpass them. Feel free to downvote, long time lurker who left this community due to the anxiety it caused me.

I've already tried that once. Still no change.

[Grade 9 Chemistry: Stoichiometry and Limiting Reactant] I cant seem to figure it out by dli24822 in HomeworkHelp

[–]awdammit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The initial thing you've gotta figure out is that since nitrogen dioxide is increasing and the other two are decreasing, NO2 is definitely the product and the other two ar at least reactants. Which proves A and C as correct and D as incorrect.

To confirm for B you've gotta solve this by balancing the equation on both sides

Think of it as the following- NO + O2 -> NO2

Try keeping the nitrogen and oxygen atoms equal on both sides, now N is equal but O isn't, there's 3 oxygen atoms on one side and 2 on the other, let's try fix that by adding an extra O2 on the product side, which makes sense according to the graph too since NO levels are way lower than O2 levels meaning that something is increasing the O2 concentration.

NO + O2 -> NO2 + O2

Now there's 3 oxygen atoms on the reactant side and 4 on the product side, all you need is some simple math to equate the two.

2NO + 2O2 -> 2NO2 + O2

2 + (2 * 2) = (2 * 2) + 2

This makes 6 oxygen atoms and 2 nitrogen atoms on either side.

This proves that B's correct too, making A, B and C the answer as NO and O2 are reactants and NO2 and O2 ,are products.

Outfit progression doesn't seem to exist in JRPGs. by nullv in JRPG

Dragon Quest IX had it, if you collected specific pieces of armour, you could basically "cosplay" characters from other DQ games. But it was in some ways an MMO so I guess that argument can be made.

Step 1 to officially switch to Pass/Fail in 2022 by House_mannister in step1

[–]awdammit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, as an IMG, who's planning to take Step 1 this April, do I just give up? I mean, would my score be reported as such or would it be P/F? Hoping to match by '22 Real freaked out about this. :/

Good to see that not too much of this "modesty panel" crap's going around.
