I think he's saying that his use of the site, via the LLM, is consistent with what the site owner-operator likely desires. To give a concrete example: I am a physician and have a s…

To one degree or another, this is endemic among nurses. It's part of a broader cultural element: nursing programs have entrenched a culture of nurses vs. doctors. There are literal…

I don't really understand where this notion comes from. I've used Slack; I've used Teams; I find Teams more than adequate for my organization's use-case. I'm sure that's not the ca…

Boil=and-bite only provides cushion between teeth. Sleep apnea mouth guards are designed to thrust the jaw forward, so as to mechanically assist in keeping the airway open. They're…

My understanding from my readings in the field of mythology is that the parent post is precisely correct: Campbell was an enthusiastic amateur who did a whole bunch of cherry-picki…

OB is ridiculously stressful, in an antagonistic kind of way. 1. A good subset of patients have wildly unrealistic ideas about pregnancy and delivery, and when their ideas meet rea…

My immediate thought was that this was a repost from an event earlier this week. But no, apparently this is another noose.

In the US, growth charts for peds are already built into every EMR I know of. But even that isn't particularly nuanced: I want different charts at different ages based on, for inst…

Yes, let's clarify a few things. For starters, I'm a physician, and have formerly worked in health insurance at the management level. I assume your comment was aimed at someone at …

With existing tech? No, not really. Most of those lab values are more or less worthless outside of context - which is why so much time is spent on training docs on physio, pathophy…

I don't see how that would have helped OP. He wasn't called out for things he said or did on social media, barring a few people who piled on over extremely "sanitized" exchanges. I…
