This is fear mongering at best and unbelievable. Why would a surgeon know anything about anesthesia risk? Anesthesia regurarly cancels cases due to safety concerns - there's no "pr…

IMO the best way is to just pick a project and work on it. Using application notes and datasheets lets you piece together circuits, and you pick up design patterns along the way.

It's new but not as new as the article tries to make it sound. Has been known for a while and is in use. Further, it's not going to "revolutinize" anything, it's another incrementa…

Show me a printer than can print 2000dpi. Small font also causes eye strain, I say all books should be in large font. Just because they are worse for you doesn't make it so for eve…

This shows clear ignorance of what radiologists do, it's like a fish telling someone how to improve land transportation. For some reason CS people fixate on radiology for automatio…

Probably an anemia then! Carriers still have protective effects without too much of the bad, there may have been some precipitating event during your episode.

Any chance you were screened for anemias? Carriers for sickle, thalassemia,and G6PD deficiency all have malaria protective effects and ties in nicely with yellow urine and jaundice…

There's a lot wrong with the medical field, but this is a ridiculous argument. Programming is hard, medicine is hard. But it's in different ways - it's definitely not transposable …

And a physical exam? Who's going to listen to your lungs and heart, check out your throat, ears, nose, eyes? Those are invaluable in diagnosing even the most common illnesses.

Of course we have treatments and symptoms for many diseases. But many diseases present the same way. In fact many symptoms are a result of immune response, so naturally they are go…

Apparently you're not familiar with the documentation burden in the medical field. EHR's don't diagnose for you. There is no "true" intuition in medicine, just years of study and p…

What? Do you have evidence there's a memory problem with the code as is? Blind language allegiances are useless. All of them have their advantages and it makes no sense to claim on…

Glioblastomas are what the name implies- tumors of glial cells. Neurons aren't involved in proliferation.

B12 deficiency doesn't cause pernicious anemia, pernicious anemia is a cause of B12 deficiency, its a GI absorptive disorder (lack if intrinsic factor).

Not sure how you plan on getting into medical tech without being OK with paperwork. The paperwork is far from useless, traceability and documentation are important. Try to learn ab…

When people say "cell line" they mean a proliferation of a specific subclonal population in the lab. Cancer cells in vivo are known to have clonal evolution [1]. This paper is spec…

This is interesting to me because it gives one a way to evaluate if they are valuing something fairly (usually in comparison shopping) like mentioned with the monitor example. Keep…

Man I hate those connectors. I don't have a problem soldering most things down to 0.4mm pitch & 0402 components without magnification, but these connectors love to bridge. Either l…

I don't think it's the same. arr[n] and [arr]n works because brackets simply expand to * (arr + n) in the first case, * (n + arr) in the second. C++ dictates if a statement can be …

From what I remember, T-cells (or was it B cells?) hang out in the lymph nodes.

What you're suggesting sounds like a count min sketch, like a 2D bloom filter.
