You're right; since I last visited Greece they've tightened their antibiotic policy (2020).

Do you know how many Dr.s a parent deals with? After hours, you don't go to your family Dr. This year alone Ive probably seen a dozen Dr.s Ive had some Drs push antibiotics after t…

"optimizes for bacteria that infects animals rather than humans." But then there is horizontal gene transfer. The world has a lot to be scared of. Ive had an easy life, save for on…

You are correct. I arrive at conclusions based on my life experiences and what I've learned along the way. We literally give industrial quantities of antibiotics to animals. So ant…

Im on my fifth (?) pediatrician. This one's the first one I even like as a person.

Which is why I get annoyed when Dr. prescribe them more liberally than I would; for things that they'll admit are probably viral. But when a girl with a history of UTI is screaming…

Of course there is some degree of conformity everywhere, but having lived in many different places myself, there are stark differences. The woman I mentioned speaks six languages b…

Thats also a reflection of the way american cities are laid out, with large physical separations between where you work and where you live. Im glad to live in America, but the way …

I knew a (great) artist who spent almost her whole life in Norway and Sweeden. Shes in her nineties, speaks a half dozen languages, worked for Norwegian public TV. That is to say s…

Nope. Their cashless culture is one of the reasons I hope I never do go to Scandinavia.

My guess is that the cycle efficiency would be a simple Carnot cycle, and since the delta(T) is small the efficiency would be minuscule and you never measure the difference, never …

My favorite is missing! HP's User RPL and System RPL are missing!
