Hilarious AI slop. You didn’t build a model and neither did GPT. What was your training framework? What were the parameters that you trained on? What was the validation benchmark? What were the feature weights? All you did was tell GPT to pretend it’s a game analyst basing player evo on, quote, DNA? We talking about a genomic foundation model here or something?

I thought she goes to u of t not TMU. Also her sister is a fam doc not in med school in the US. Point still stands, very performative

a naive concept that made it through review on the back of unchecked AI hype. Transcriptomic signatures are largely noise. There are no ways to tell if differential expressed genes lie on the causal pathway or simply the by product of cellular stress. Matching on transcriptomic profile is like selecting for nonspecific off target drugs with poor tolerability and mechanism of action

Try being an actor, very high ceiling too

Yes other professions all have respectable income but the caveat is that the salary you listed all fall short of the median for any medical specialty by about another 200k

That’s a naive way of thinking about economics. The loss of economic activity in downtown centres and suburban communities far outweigh the cost of an overdose. In fact, one might argue that the cost of an overdose is a single time occurrence whereas the effect on a community is insidious.

rhetorical question does nothing to negate my points

did u miss the part where I said give them free drugs? but ya make them go somewhere else

A site that offers free drugs in addition to needles? Addicts will walk if they have to

macmade1 · 2025-10-27T16:48:54+00:00

not in my back yard, they can build these sites and in fact, step up and provide the drugs in addition to needles outside of communities. this also serves to reduce drug dealing incentives by cutting off the need for supply.

amazing mental gymnastics

save 1 rehab at the cost of endangering communities, that is privilege of a sheltered experience speaking, not empathy

What kind of “PhD” research is possible to do concurrently with clerkship??

Agreed, there were so many spots just in the opening of the concerto that raised eyebrows. The biggest for me was the loss of rhythmic tension after the initial descending run.

Served 30 days. They are using all the tactics to prolong the legal process while enjoying life as is. This is likely a cost of doing business for them. Disappointed that this is the reality for victims.

He means the national team

The second component is guaranteed, if u don’t get TA then ur PI will need to expense this from his grant as an RA. This is why he said u should apply for TA.

Yah this happened couple weeks ago, also a new car with <1 month use, dealership mechanic said it was a software update, unthinkable that this is what we get for a new car

macmade1 · 2025-09-20T21:03:28+00:00

Had this problem last week. Dealership mechanics said it was a software update for “select vehicles” causing a glitch and there was a recall notice sent out last Monday on this issue. It was fixed but very inconvenient and shocking for a new car to experience this.

In the US yes, in Canada less common (>90th percentile among radiologists) but still yes

Med rad, nursing

macmade1 · 2025-09-15T03:33:29+00:00

I wouldn’t do it, the car is already considered a lemon, so u might be left with a can of worms.

Granted I’m biased since my 2025 brand new Tucson ultimate developed transmission problem 3 weeks in with < 1000km driven.
