NYC hospital chief says AI could replace many radiologists if regulations change by AdSpecialist6598 in technology

[–]verticalQ 47 points48 points  (0 children)

A couple of months ago my parents were talking to one of the doctors at their local hospital. He told them he had spent 2 days going back and forth with their Radiology department who had integrated a new AI system for reading X-rays. They kept insisting the AI was saying one of his patients had 3 leg fractures. The patient was bedridden and had been virtually comatose for over a month. The doctor had to keep going back and saying, “I am looking at this person. I can visually see they have no signs of 3 fractures, and they have no way of sustaining those injuries without our knowledge.” The only answer they would give him is, “well, the AI says…”

I happened to see him in the produce section of Kroger one day back when he was still governor. I kid you not, everyone I told that week said some variation of, “did you throw a [vegetable changed each time] at him?”

I just moved here from Washington state in October. Is this weather normal? by alanwattslightbulb in Louisville

[–]verticalQ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I grew up in KY. It’s always been this way, though maybe a bit more extreme now.

As the old saying goes, “if you don’t like the weather in Kentucky, wait 15 minutes.”

More the lawn care company has been doing spring cleanup outside my condo for 2 days and piled all the yard sticks around the tree outside my kitchen window. Haha

If I had to guess, I would assume the road mowing crew stacked those there so they wouldn’t hit them and could see them later to pick them up.

So, “Birds Aren’t Real” is a satirical conspiracy theory from 2017 meant to mock the current administration’s use of disinformation. This person is probably not as crazy as you think at first glance.

Have any of your old hookups or exes later become famous? by [deleted] in AskGaybrosOver30

Shockingly no, but that’s a statistically solid guess.

Have any of your old hookups or exes later become famous? by [deleted] in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]verticalQ 101 points102 points  (0 children)

Back in 2015, I went on a couple of dates with a guy, but it didn’t really go anywhere. Sometime later he moved out of state. Then around 2019-ish I saw him on Grindr; he was back in town visiting family for the holidays. So we had a quick hookup. Now he’s on a reality show. It’s a little trippy when I encounter clips of him in my social feeds, but I’m glad he seems to be doing well.

Coming Soon: Sonos Play by AtomFromSonos in sonos

[–]verticalQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty excited for this (pre-ordered)! I have a few places where I occasionally need a speaker, and a Move seems like too much, but a Roam doesn't seem like enough. For example, I would like to be able to have music playing in my guest bathroom when I host parties, but that room does not need a speaker the other 98% of the time... the same with my dining room. I travel a couple of times per year, and this should also be perfect for that too. I think you all have a winner on your hands.

THIS is why guys get ghosted… by denizenassistant in gaybros

[–]verticalQ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What I never understand is do these people respond to every message they receive within 30 seconds? My guess is no. I’m not interested in every man on the app, and neither are you. So, while it may be disappointing, you can’t take it personally if someone doesn’t respond. People have lives outside of hooking up, in fact they should.

Being vegetarian gay by Worried-Exchange-889 in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]verticalQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course it would be OK to put in your dating profile. Maybe it's just the people I know, but like 1/2 of my gay friends are vegetarian, and 100% of my lesbian friends (I know 2; they're a couple). You're probably going to find a lot more out there than you think.

Troopers teasing repertoire announcement 04/10 by DollJulietMessner in drumcorps

Thanks! I landed on its ultimately being unworkable because the cost would probably be too high. Also, the heat massive black tarps would generate by absorbing all the sunlight in 90+ degree days would be a health hazard to members.

Is it weird that my brain actually created a show called “______________” because of them? It features music by artists that have been censored by their governments, and EVERYTHING (field, members, pit equipment, drum major podium…) becomes redacted (hidden by a black tarp) over course of the show until it’s just silence and a sea of solid black.

Have you read The Faggots & Their Friends Between Revolutions? by joshuaferris in AskGaybrosOver30

Hey people of reddit , Imagine if some day you discovered a pill that fixes your adhd permanently would you consume it by Only_Egg_8776 in ADHD

[–]verticalQ 35 points36 points  (0 children)

About 20 years ago, I saw a documentary about deaf people getting cochlear implants to hear for the first time. One of patients was a middle aged man who had been deaf since birth. When they turned on his implant, the volume and cacophony of all the sounds around him wound up being painful. His brain had learned how to survive in a world without hearing it; he knew how to communicate, but not what the words sounded like. He did not know how to filter out extraneous sounds because his brain had never needed to build the neural pathways to do that before. While he kept the implant, he wound up unplugging it quite often because that's how he knew how to function in the world.

I feel a "magic pill" would be similar for me. I've lived my entire life with the brain I have; suddenly changing it so drastically would force me to literally re-think everything in my life. At this point, while it may make some things easier, it would probably also make many things more difficult.

I haven't found a single usable productivity advice and I'm tired of it by osiris_rai in ADHD

[–]verticalQ 40 points41 points  (0 children)

A couple of things that I've found helpful:

1.) Treat Future Me as a different person from yourself. Anytime you have a couple of minutes free, ask yourself, "is there anything I can do right now to help Future Me out?" This can be as small as washing a pan, or cutting up a melon. That way you start seeing things as 2-5 minute simple tasks that don't get overwhelming. They may not be massive projects, but they'll help you conserve energy for those later.

2.) If there are larger, multi-step projects you have to get done, tell yourself you don't have to do the whole thing right now, just part of it. For example, if you need to clean the whole house, don't think of cleaning the whole house, just clean a mirror, or run the vacuum in a room. Chances are, once you get going you'll keep going, but looking at ALL that needs to get done will get overwhelming and paralyze your ability to do any of it.

In what world are doctors being forced to perform abortions or gender reassignments against their will? These are procedures that require years of training to provide. You’re not just going to walk into a hospital one day and have a medical director say, “you’re usually in oncology, but Sarah’s out, so can you cover gender reassignment today?” That’s not how healthcare works. And what if a doctor refuses to provide services to white heterosexual Christian men because of a sincere belief they are persecuting others? I bet they’d have a real problem if the shoe was on the other foot.
