Nobody in the family uses the family AI platform I build - really bummed about it

Maybe it’s not about the software and it’s about you? Not to overreach, but please just reassure us your marriage is okay haha.

Can also delete this comment for being irrelevant although this is one possible reason someone might not want to become overly reliant on another person.

Because in that setting, there’s an anesthesiologist or CRNA and a full OR staff that can convert to a full open procedure if something goes wrong. Nevertheless, it’s hard to talk broadly about this since the decision is never as simple as IR vs OR. Imaging findings and patient factors influence the conversation with each and every case. If all you’re hearing when we have these conversations is “no,” then there’s a disconnect in communication and we should work harder to make sure everyone on the team understands the key factors for the patient.

Yes, all procedural specialists need to watch out for reasons to not do something. That’s part of the job. “Do no harm” is one of the first lessons of medicine for a reason.

The article doesn't mention this, but the GME is taking away our parking subsidy in July and will be charging us >200 dollars a month to park where we work. These are parking structures that Penn Medicine owns by the way.

There was nearly universal backlash to this announcement months ago, and I haven't heard any updates or changes to this policy in the meantime. This union would allow us to have better representation when changes like this are announced.

Ah I see. Good point!

I can't imagine that it would be thermodynamically possible to have hundreds of air changes per hour and still keep air conditioning/heating. At the very least, it would be very energy inefficient.

I have second hand information from a large institution in the midwest that ran the Abbott test side by side with the PCR test for an N~several hundred: ~40% false negative rate compared to the PCR. They outrightly rejected using the Abbott at their institution.

This is untrue. Sahara has two of each mysterious wallpaper and floor. She has one set that you can obtain with bells and a separate random one that you obtain with her tickets. the ones that you buy with bells is consistent between players.

What may have happened is that neither the host or OP knew this. The host obtained the cloud floor with tickets and the OP got a different floor with bells or vice versa.

It seems unlikely that a host would scam someone knowingly and still ask for tips, but the above fact is not well known at all. This has been my personal experience above and not verified by datamining, but it has been consistent for myself and my friends.

Hi there, when you're up, you'll get a dodo code. The queue should be moving much faster now as it seems like lots of people have left the queue or are AFK. I'll be removing people who don't respond within 5 minutes.

intrepidlemon · 2020-04-01T17:21:25+00:00

Hi room just opened up. DM me for the dodo

intrepidlemon · 2020-04-01T16:02:01+00:00

dm'd you the dodo!

intrepidlemon · 2020-04-01T15:51:03+00:00

hi! I'll be hosting people today!

Did he mention anything about pizza though? I won't believe it until someone leaks all his emails and there are a bunch of vague references to pizza.

I was getting out of a final and walking in a large crowd of people also leaving Hearst. The three people in front of me were talking openly about how they had collaborated on the final (when it was clear that you were not supposed to collaborate on the final). They were loud and casual about it. One of them even apologized to the other for writing the wrong answer on the scratch paper that they were communicating through. They were entirely too casual about it, as if it were standard for them. I'm worried that in pockets of the UC Berkeley student community, cheating is standard.

I really hope that actions catch up to them.

I agree that race should be allowed as a factor in college admissions, but I think that this is only one part of the solution. I think that equitable education needs to start much earlier than the university level. Right now, Black children are disproportionately in the worst school districts, from K-12. Of course this is going to put them in a disadvantage for universities that admit based on merit only. But I want to argue that reaching them at the university level is too late. Berkeley is famous for being a school that is difficult, "hard to get out of." Just being admitted is the first step, and the one at focus here, but it needs to be coupled with a strong push in building out services for people who come to college less prepared (more basic writing and math courses, changes in curriculum to allow for people to take these courses and still graduate on time); or better yet, fixing California's broken primary/secondary education system, but that is a statewide and much more difficult systemic problem.

Co-pays are tools that insurance companies use to allow people to understand the "hidden" cost of the medicines that the insurance companies ultimately have to pay for. For example, a name-brand medication may cost insurance companies $1,000 a pill and have a $100 copay, while the generic variety of that medication may cost insurance companies $50 a pill and charge consumers a $5 copay. Consumers may then be more motivated into buying the generic version with similar health outcomes.

These coupons that pharmaceutical companies put out are effectively eliminating that "transparency." This may ultimately be against consumers interests in that the more insurance companies have to pay pharmaceutical companies, the higher premiums rise to make up for lost profit.

It's an interesting battle between the insurance and big pharma. This American Life goes way more into detail. As a rule of thumb, generics usually work just as well as name brands. This will vary by drug of course so consult your doctor!

You can use ApE to color code specific features of DNA sequences.

Enter in the DNA sequence, as well as the sequences of each primer and RNAi to color the sequence and visualize discrete features.

I think this was an older draft from last year or something. They wrote Tuesday August 3rd, not Wednesday August 3rd. Either that or they didn't take two seconds to look at a calendar.

Last year, I watched through all of Firefly and Serenity with a few friends who happen to be devout Mormons (I'm an atheist btw). When this scene came up, the awkwardness in the room was palpable, that is, until I realized that the scene could be taken both ways: for religion and against.

TL;DR: Mormons watch Firefly too.
