Not wanting to give away too much personal information on the Internet, thanks to my residency wanting “the brand” and social media clout, we were required to have an online presence and bio. But I went to residency in the same location I’m currently practicing, Eastern Midwest.

I originally applied to regions and Hennepin, would have loved to go there. Due to other external factors, it was better to come here.

First time noticing this community, subscribed!

I’m a 2 year post residency EM doc in the Eastern Midwest region. I actually grew up on the west side of Minneapolis! I miss that city, but doubt I’ll be moving back there any time soon.

you…like…Hitler

So you’re saying that you like Hitler? Holy cow, get a load of this guy!

Everyone, get in here and rally against this person!

It IS a sport, but unfortunately illegal.

I’m a hospital worker in Ohio. I’ve had plenty of positive tests. I’ve not admitted anyone for COVID in ~3 years.

It’s just not deadly anymore.

15 minutes is just reactionary spitballing to exaggerate.

Most of my previous “office work” was primarily back end development, and the approach tended to be hands off from my supervisor. So long as work was getting done in a timely fashion, my hours and daily schedule was up to me. I much preferred that approach as opposed to rigid hours and direct management. I suppose different strokes here.

One employee said they want to see new safety protocols in place … and is calling on Wells Fargo to do more.

How is this at all negligence on the company? How terrible would it be if company policy mandated 15 minute buddy check in system to prevent this? Are we just searching for someone to blame when there may be nobody to blame?

As someone who switched to Linux before discovering that it would break the PC integration (quest won’t let it run without their shitty app and it won’t run in Linux), here’s hoping that this is a good step towards improving quest functionality in Linux!

Meh, there’s really no overarching governing body regarding this. At academic facilities, most operations are primarily performed by residents (completed medical school and are doctors, but not specialized) and medical students (not yet doctors). All this is done under the license of the attending doctor. It’s increasingly common for surgeries to be performed by NPs (who can get degrees online), PAs (this requires 3 years of in person work), or surgical assistants (few weeks certificate course). It’s all based on the level of comfort of the attending physician. If he/she was directly overseeing the daughter drilling and ensured sterile technique, probably not the cause of the patient being “unable to work”. That’s probably more so due to that fact that TBIs suck.

Yeah, we tried that one. I didn’t think anyone’s stomach volume is large enough for that amount. None of us could get past the 45 minute mark.

Sounds like a fun game! Depending on tolerance, maybe beer instead of shots…

Reminds me of the game thunderstruck. Get everyone in a circle with a few drinks on hand. Start the song “thunderstruck” by AC/DC. First person starts chugging and on every time they say “thunderstruck”, that person stops chugging and the next in line starts. Very fun but uneven. Once the into starts, one person is chugging for a bit.

Technically no nudity, although I see the sexual harassment point.

Social media AND politics combined? Better post to technology forums!

What if Ukraine invades Russia and overthrows Putin? And established a better government with interest in caring for the people, nuclear de-escalation, and better foreign relations?

I know it’s never going to happen, but imagine how great that would be? St. Petersburg isn’t that far into Russia…

The tag line on this with regards to IQ is very misleading. Setting aside that IQ is a terrible form of measurement and no weight should be given to it, the study actually reveals that measured IQ is unchanged. They measured after discharge, and then several years later with no change. With no pre-covid measurement, this is a more than useless bit of data.

Depression and anxiety are increased, but so did that of the general population. So hard to tie any of that to COVID or long COVID.

Seriously doubt it. Elective surgeries were likely cancelled, which could certainly prolong suffering for some, but life saving surgeries can absolutely happen and do without computers.

I was unaware of “Project 2025”, interesting read! While that does contain multiple concerning ideas, this is far from a reliable manifesto. Additionally, ties have been drawn to the Trump campaign, but these are loose ties and appear primarily to be op-eds. Trump has also disavowed ties to this “publication”. Lastly, that “Washington Post report” is another one of those vague articles featuring “according to sources familiar”.

While this may be true, and a drone strike may be ordered on US soil, the President will not be the one controlling the drone, not directly in command of that person. The UCMJ supercedes in the case.

I’d like to try to assuage your fears regarding a protest meeting missiles or drone strikes. Yes, the President can order drone strikes with impunity. It’s been that way since the first use of drones, early as the Obama era (maybe earlier, but I was a bit young then).

However, this does not apply to US soil. One of the benefits of state sovereignty is that federal armed forces can’t operate on US soil. National guard gets involved, at the governor’s request, but they don’t have missiles or drones. Police are barbaric, but they also don’t have missiles or drones.

So I don’t think we’d see much of an escalation in terms of weapons of violence with regards to protests when compared to 2020.

This, in addition to the other comment calling it a scammer cleared it up for me. I initially read it as “doing yogas…”. Guess I’m out of touch.
