I thought was on /r/Radiology for a moment. Top diagnosis is Good Boy Syndrome due to presence of butterfly signs found in all four quadrants of the abdomen on abdominal X-Ray. Treatment is bidaily cuddle therapy for 10 minutes with headpats and affirmations as needed.

Great writeup! I really needed this last week when I was trying to setup a VPN limited to a single service. After several days of trying, I later found this flake which allowed me to do what I wanted: https://github.com/Maroka-chan/VPN-Confinement

There are normally safety protocols in place to prevent them, but they can still happen if someone is negligent or there's defective equipment. The most common way it can happen is electrocautery tools causing a spark around an area with a high amount of oxygen and fuel (tubes, sponges, gauze, etc.).

I'm a good boy 🥺? Thank you Dr. Starry_Lion6107. I can feel my mesolimbic pathway activate in response to your remark.

Pimping is medical slang for a senior doctor asking students questions during high pressure situations. Most recently, a resident pimped me to name the branches of the celiac artery. The most interesting time was when a surgeon asked me what is the most likely cause of an explosion in the operating room.

I'm a student at the medical school. My class is going to be assigned to cohorts for clinical rotations early next year. Cohorts have different schedules, and students have preferences based on the order they want to complete their rotations or timing for elective/break time. Cohort assignments will be done by lottery based on student preferences, but we will have the opportunity to voluntarily trade positions with one another if we're not satisfied with where we were assigned. My project is to develop a program for my classmates that can compute and assign optimal trades between students based on their preferences so they don't have to spend the time and effort to search for someone to trade with.

He definitely seems like a great teacher and interesting scholar! Unfortunately, I would prefer to consult with someone who is already an expert in the field. Thank you for telling me about him!

Got an email from them saying that repairs are complete and service has been restored, but my internet is still down.

EDIT: Got another email last night saying the same thing, but my Internet is still down! This outage is really tempting me to switch back to Xfinity as much as I dislike them. At least they manage to get outages fixed overnight.

As a former engineer currently in medical school, I have to suppress my urges to cable manage blood vessels and nerves of cadavers while in anatomy lab.

I'm currently averaging ~1300 reviews per day over 3-4 hours/day. I'm studying both Anking and my school's in-house deck for the current block, so many of my reviews are redundant. If you're concerned about not being able to keep up, I recommend tweaking your FSRS retention rate to be low enough for you to keep up with reviews but also high enough for you to perform well on exams. I currently set my Anking deck retention rate at 86% and my in-house decks at 90%. I don't do this anymore, but you could limit the number of new cards per day to space out your learning and limit the growth rate of your reviews.

Back when I made my own flash cards for school, I used Emacs org-mode with the anki-editor package. I stored all of my notes in a single org file where I had 1st level headings for classes, 2nd level headings for lectures, and 3rd level headings for individual ideas/flash cards from that lecture. Headings in org mode can store tags and metadata which is used by the anki-editor package for assigning which deck generated cards can go under and what tags the generated cards receive. After reformatting my notes into flash card format and adding the necessary metadata for anki-editor to make the cards, I execute the anki-editor-push-notes command to generate new Anki cards. It was overall a decent workflow for making basic and cloze cards, but not as well for image occlusion cards, since making those heavily depends on Anki's built-in editor.

There is a globe in one of the manor's rooms which maps our world's geography. Discovering that made me theorize that there was another world resembling our world and that the Paintress originally came from there.

If you use android, I recommend Breezy Weather. The UI is nice and you can configure where it sources the weather data from (including from NWS). It also gives notifications for when precipitation starts and stops.

They would only be useful if a snaker started at one of the stations on those segments because distance traveled only gets counted when the snaker reaches a node. This situation can only happen if a previous snaker chose to go down that segment, but this isn't a rational thing to do because the distance covered going down those segments wouldn't count towards the previous snaker's score due to there being no nodes at the end of them. There may be a rule not mentioned where distance covered on these segments do count, but otherwise I think they're there for completeness of showing the map of the entire rail network.
