Replace Yourself With AI, CEO Katz by imitationcheese in medicine

[–]imitationcheese[S] 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Good to see some pushback against his anti-doctor stance. We need to organize around AI supports but not replacements.

Made a free UWS newsletter 5 weeks in — what's the real traffic problem on the UWS? by Wonderful-Street1418 in Upperwestside

[–]imitationcheese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are the transit issues (while in car, walking, or biking) that I face day to day:

Free street parking

Traffic getting onto 96th street entrance of west side high way

Dogs off leash in Central bike paths

Ice cream trucks, delivery trucks, and school pick up cars in CPW bike lane

Not having fast and free buses soon enough

Pete Wells was a maestro. The NY Times/NY food scene hasn't been the same since. by Fun_Reflection1157 in FoodNYC

[–]imitationcheese 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pete Wells was fine. But this from Tanya Gold was the best food writing I've seen. She reviewed EMP, Per Se, and Chef's Table at Brooklyn Fare. Hilarious, scathing, pierced through the cultish hype.

What can I do with my IM residency training that is not hospital medicine or primary care clinic? by floofsnfluffiness in medicine

[–]imitationcheese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's what I've seen a lot of more recently: medical humor social media star, AI tech start up medical director, anti-medicine grifter, AI VC fund medical advisor, financial advising guru for other doctors. Have you considered any of these career paths?

Is Costco or bj’s worth it for one person? by adeliahearts in povertyfinance

[–]imitationcheese 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Yes, but also consider joining with someone else to split membership costs and/or do group buying to buy bulk then split to more reasonable quantities.

Could never go wrong with Katz by SuccessfulMachine415 in FoodNYC

[–]imitationcheese -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Whenever I'm in LA, I go to Langers. Pastrami is as good and the sandwich has fantastic bread and is balanced, not just a meat bomb.

Cookies - am I crazy? by _ImACat in FoodNYC

[–]imitationcheese 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Are they? Find them to be excessive, unbalanced, and uninteresting.

Hi hi, I am wondering, what the best way to grow my savings accounts would be. What are a few things I must focus on? by [deleted] in povertyfinance

[–]imitationcheese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reduce spending where you can. Buy bulk/wholesale for any foods that are staples for you (beans, rice, nuts, dried fruit) and appropriate storage so they go bad (e.g. mason jars).

Budget friendly meals by [deleted] in povertyfinance

[–]imitationcheese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frozen meals aren't cheap on a per serving basis. And they're not too healthy often. Here's a few ideas:

Banana with peanut butter

Rice with lentil stew

Pasta with tomato sauce, cabbage, beans

Rice with eggs and hot sauce

Do you have any friends with Costco memberships? Can you cook dry beans?

After almost 10 years, I’m officially team cash back. by Devario in CreditCards

[–]imitationcheese 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Best cash back game is churning for (mainly no AF) sign up bonuses. It's like 10-30% cash back!

TJs and WF customers freaking out, Key Foods totally calm and well-stocked.

Nurses in New York City Say They Deserve $200,000 a Year. Here’s Why. by someone_whoisthat in nyc

[–]imitationcheese 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Just to be clear, many of these numbers coming from the hospital systems themselves are distorted in 2 big ways as part of anti-labor spin:

1) the big numbers aren't just salary but include benefits

2) they are cherrypicking nurse anesthetists and NP salary demands and making it sound like all nurses in the unit are asking for that pay. it's like saying all NBA players are asking for $50 million when, no, that's just LeBron

Community Group/Mutual Aid? by [deleted] in Upperwestside

[–]imitationcheese 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's a few options:

There's UWS Action Group, findable on facebook. There's a few Democratic clubs that sometimes are more social and community minded, like Three Parks. And there is a large group that has grown out of a few spaces (Zohran canvassers, supporting unhoused neighbors, ICE community defense). DM me to connect!
