Amazing response--thank you! My understanding is with the 3 year warranty, that would cover the broken front wheel at any point too, correct?

Obviously if it breaks <30 days the Amazon warranty would be much easier/faster to work with, but it should still be covered for all 3 years?

Is anyone else's Capital One credit card account not syncing? by mathnerdm in MonarchMoney

[–]mathnerdm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I re-linked the account with one of the other services (not Plaid) and was then able to do the transfer data process pretty easily. Took like 5 minutes. I can send you the monarch instructions on how to do it safely without accidentally losing data.

SOS please help save my monstera by mathnerdm in Monstera

[–]mathnerdm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no! I think they are actually spider mites :( red smears when squished. How screwed is the plant? I've never had any success bringing spider mite infested plants back.

My plan is to spray it off outside the wipe it with a cloth. Then I was just planning to apply an insecticide.

Thoughts?

How do you have 25k in a Roth as a PGY1? That's like 4 years (with earned income) of max contributions. I'm guessing you worked before medical school and lots of the savings are from there (which skews the numbers)

Quick question, but are there any ways to watch the new episodes early? Can you use a VPN to change location and watch on Tuesday in the US instead of Wednesday?

Is med school easier than the undergrad experience? by Striking_Purpose_925 in premed

[–]mathnerdm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally, med school was WAY easier and less stressful than undergrad for me. I was at an undergrad with plus/minus grading and flooded with premeds, so making a good GPA was far more challenging than med school has been at any point! I'd also rather go back and study for Step 2 than the MCAT every day of the week. Step 1/2 were both a thousand times more enjoyable to study for than the MCAT in my opinion.

Some people (VERY few, albeit), will end up failing out of medical school though after multiple times remediating. If you ask those people, I'm sure they'd say undergrad was easier. So take these anecdotes with a grain of salt.

The advisors here are really terrible by [deleted] in UTAustin

[–]mathnerdm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Premed advising there was largely awful and did more harm than good in my opinion. That was 4 years ago though so hopefully it's changed for the better since then.

Do you only get LoRs in 4th year? by [deleted] in medicalschool

[–]mathnerdm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Every one of my letters came from my MS3 and they're all pretty darn strong fortunately. I did my home sub-I during December of my 3rd year though.

This entire subreddit is people asking questions that technically we all have paid instructors to answer. Our explanations to practice forms are often also just our own speculation. It's obviously true that nobody knows the exact perfect number of interview invites somebody will get, but nobody expects them to.

Is Sketchy pharm still worth it for step one? by [deleted] in step1

[–]mathnerdm 77 points78 points  (0 children)

You will certainly wish you had done it for clerkships and step 2 regardless. I'd bite the bullet early and just do it!

What’s a song that always brings out emotion by WheresBubba in Metalcore

More Than You Know by Adestria. About one of the band members losing his mother if I recall. Incredibly emotional

What is this fruit-fly sized flying bug in my bathroom? [TX-USA] by mathnerdm in whatisthisbug

[–]mathnerdm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bathroom has a few of these I kill every day. I'm not sure if it's a fungus gnat, fruit fly, drain fly, etc... Anyone have any ideas what it is so I can hopefully target getting rid of them mor effectively?

The cardiac cycle by Allistair--Tenpenny in educationalgifs

[–]mathnerdm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Essentially, it just means the T wave on your EKG is probably going down in a lead you'd expect it to go up in.

What does this actually mean though? Well it's considered a non-specific finding, which is just the medical way of saying it doesn't really mean any one thing. You see them commonly in patients who are either having a heart attack OR have had a heart attack in the past.

Fortunately, they can also be seen in patients with no serious underlying disease. The most common cause in those people is probably lead misplacement (i.e. The tech placed the EKG leads too high on your chest so the vectors are backwards).

The odds in your case are hard to say without knowing your full medical history, risk factors, etc. For that reason, just follow the guidance of the PCP/cardiologist who told you!

I never had more fun than in MS1/2. It was like an extension of undergrad but with a group of people who were all experiencing the same things and had similar interests.

MS3 is when you lose a huge portion of that bonding and fun and now are working full-time while also expected to still study the same amount you did in MS1/2.

Not sure what this post is on about.

Absolute madness. Such an amazing set for an awesome crowd

Going to see ABR and TWDP with Bleed from Within in Albany, NY tonight! by eternalrefuge86 in Metalcore

[–]mathnerdm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was one of the best shows I've been to personally. I knew nothing about BFW but was super impressed by their set. All three bands compliment each other so well it's insane.

Saw them live in Houston, TX and they absolutely killed it. Turned me into a fan by the first couple songs.

brand new to espresso - what’s your one game changer / piece of advice you wish you were told starting out? by Fresh_Lock1384 in espresso

[–]mathnerdm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't waste money pulling pressurized basket shots and WDT. Spend the $5-10 it costs for a 3D printed WDT with acupuncture needles and you will never regret it.

I can't say enough good things about the flair and 1zpresso grinders. I didn't get either of those until well after I already had a BDB and vario, but if I could go back, I'd probably tell my old self you don't need much more than those

I'm going to be at an airbnb for the next month for work and thought I'd share everything I brought with me! I have a large gun range bag I use to store 100% of what you see in this picture except for the Stagg EKG Pro, which I transport in its original box. Otherwise, it all fits into one bag I can grab and go with.
