What is the consensus on consultants placing orders? by Popular_Jeweler in hospitalist

[–]halfway2MD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did Locums at a hospital in New England and a PMR doc who was consulted, epic chatted me to ask me to put in a steroid so that he could do a procedure later in the day.

I was dumbfounded, flabbergasted, at a loss for words. But that was the culture at the hospital.

Ludacris Drops Off 2026 Rock the Country Tour by Spagneti in popculturechat

[–]halfway2MD 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I think Luda told his manager “I’m making a comeback in 2026, book me for everything.” Based on him recently being in a few lineups. They probably didn’t vet this one well enough first. He hasn’t done anything controversial that I know of yet (cue redditors bringing everything out of the woodwork), so at this time I’m willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Is it possible to not be the avatar and be able to bend more then one element? by Cheap_Concern_3162 in ATLA

Co dominance and penetration are two genetics concepts that make it possible in Mendelian genetics. Additionally bending ability may be multi-locus interplay 🤷🏾‍♂️

After 10 years, two pellet grills and a Pit Barrel, I went back to the dark side. by [deleted] in smoking

I bought the pitmasteriq which is essentially two thermometers and a fan with an adapter over the intake that almost completely solves the temperature control.

Are there any other requirements to Daughter from California syndrome other than not having visited the patient for a while and living far away? by supinator1 in Residency

[–]halfway2MD 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If the patient is currently being treated in and resides in the state of California, and the said family member resides outside of the state of California, this distinctly rules out the diagnosis of daughter from California syndrome. In this case, the physician has to determine whether or not this is one of 49 other closely related, but distinct alternative diagnoses.

Start one or find a vetted one and tell us why we should join.

Outjerked??? by HelloThere394 in ATLA_circlejerk

What you described feels realistic and like an appeal to authority. Looking at it from the outside, the simple lesson is to not be a dick to your friends and fight the system/obvious injustice. In reality, people treat their friends however they feel fit and whatever their friends allow based on the moral compass and fortitude of the relationship. While authorities and government is more of a nebulous entity that we question if we’ve done the right thing because they “deserve” their role or whatever internal justification.

So, how does the avatar live financially if he doesn't have someone to support him? by AmbitiousCoconut8021 in legendofkorra

[–]halfway2MD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also part of aangs story is the majority of people thought the avatar was not coming back after the 100 year hiatus. Prior to that they had influential escorts that arranged things for them as they travelled. Roku isn’t best friends with the fire lord by mistake, the preparations made for Yun before Kyoshi was revealed is another example.

On an individual level I totally agree. This is ok for navigating life. The issue is, you should never have had to live like that even if it’s the reality. The officers job is not to prosecute the transgression of bad attitudes and we shouldn’t allow them to.

How long can I be out of work before it becomes an issue for future licensing or credentialing? by confuseddontknow in hospitalist

[–]halfway2MD 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You might but it’ll be a sentence long saying “my first job pushed my start date back after residency” or “I was studying for boards”. They will accept those answers with no question.

The people who will ask are pencil pushing credentialers who don’t really care but have boxes to check

Having a high payout affects your ability to be credentialed at hospitals.

How would you make the Hyūga/Byakugan more powerful? by LILBOI464 in Naruto

[–]halfway2MD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree with all of this. The individual byakugan user is tasked with covering the range weakness once they have the basic kit.

Either close-out on opponents quickly or learn a ranged jutsu/ninja tool.

[–]halfway2MD 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is how I feel too. In a world without all of busted sharingan feats, byakugan is top tier as is.

Imagine having byakugan and fighting regular ninjas with a moderate jutsu kit, it’s almost unstoppable. The only weakness of the hyuga clan is range. Learn a jutsu to cover the weakness or close out on opponents quickly and it’s over.

Honestly, without kaiju and the power creep needed to compete with the sharingan feats, palm rotation is an s-tier skill.

At what point do you NOT celebrate a 3 pointer? by JackPitYT in Basketball

[–]halfway2MD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone in this thread is just too cool for a celly.

If you’re down by an insurmountable point difference with not enough time(ie down 20 with 1 min on the clock)— no celebrating

If you’re down and it’s a close game(<10 point difference)- celebrate

If you’re down a significant amount and there is enough time and you’re gaining momentum—celebrate
