NPs working under a physician with actual oversight is fine. The ones I have problems with are the ones that have a physician sign the hundreds of notes a month while maybe reviewing a handful, and worse, the ones pushing for independent practice without even that sham of oversight involved.

I’m asking about your opinion. If Hamas refuses to cooperate, how many Palestinians does the IDF have to kill for it to be too many in your mind? When does the mass murder of Palestinian civilians exceed a reasonable metric for “defense”?

Why does Hamas have insights into your personal opinions and beliefs?

That’s not answering my question. How many Palestinian lives is too many?

So how many is “too many” for Israel to have killed? Or do the citizens of Gaza not count the same way Israelis do?

You’re talking about a population with extremely limited resources that is literally 50% (or more) children that has been under two fascist boots for the last decade and a half. There does come a point where a level of desperation combined with a possibility of a better future will instigate a revolution, but right now? They don’t see a possibility of a better future. With Israel’s Likud on the other side of the wall and no resources to rebuild after a coup, what’s the point in gambling everything on maybe being able to overthrow the more local oppression?

Also, education in Gaza is very inconsistent and most political revolutions are started by people with education and nothing to lose.

They took power illegally years before the literal majority of Gaza citizens were even born.

Edit: My apologies, the ones that are almost legal adults would have been infants or toddlers at the time Hamas seized power. They really should have done something about that while they were learning how to walk and speak. /s

Given that there is the workaround of using the other screen and the Surface Duo 2 is probably not a very common device, I’d say that if there isn’t a straightforward solution to not worry about it.

The “more options” does not work on posts on the right screen, it does work on the left screen.

I don’t think I did. When they do work on the left screen I think they’re different than I remember.

I’m not really sure. It’s been doing this for about 2 weeks now, but I don’t recall if there was an associated update as I don’t remember exactly when it started. That’s why I was hoping to find someone else having the same problem to look for correlations.

Just based on build quality and reputation, I’d take a Subaru Solterra over even the highest-end Tesla any day. I live in Minnesota, and my bigger concern about Teslas is the lack of ground clearance. If I can get out of the snow bank in the ditch, I don’t need my car’s heating system to last 12 hours.

The lower colon really only transports water and a couple of vitamins released by gut biota, so if they’re getting far enough in that more complex molecules would be taken up, that would probably be up into the hepatic portal system.

The reason “boofing” works for alcohol is because ethanol is actually a rather small molecule, all things considered.

It would still go through the liver for metabolism. The only thing “boofing” effectively does is skip the stomach part of the digestive process. To take up anything from the digestive tract, it gets transported through the intestinal lumen and into the mesenteric and hepatic portal system. The liver filters everything that gets into the blood from the gut before it goes into the inferior vena cava and into the rest of the circulatory system.

Correction to clarify: the lower gut/colon mostly only takes up water and certain vitamins that are released by gut bacteria, and very small molecules like ethanol can sometimes get through as well. The very lowest part of the colon does have a vascular supply that can bypass the liver, and there are some medications designed to take advantage of the select receptors and transporters down there. However, neurotransmitters and peptide hormones (which is what OP was asking about) would likely not get taken up until it was much higher up in the digestive tract, and at that point it would go through the hepatic portal system.

Thank you to those that corrected me. Intestines are actually fairly complicated.

As a medical student with a decent tech background… I don’t want AI within the same firewall as an EMR. Something I don’t see anyone talking about that would concern me is whether or not the AIs can accidentally regurgitate a patient’s personal information. They’re trained on the input, so I could see it failing to recognize PHI and spitting out sensitive information.

These aren’t arrests of Hamas. These arrests are happening in the West Bank as part of the massive settler expansion that has been going on in the background.

I want to work in emergency medicine when I’m done with medical school and emergency room patients will just cough straight into your face no matter what they have. Even without COVID, I’ll probably keep wearing an N95.

My personal philosophy is to treat vaccines like Pokemon: gotta catch 'em all (so that you don’t catch the disease instead). Any time someone offers me a vaccine, I take it.

I never said anything about defending Hamas. If there was a way to extract them and offer them up to the Hague without endangering innocent civilians, I’d be all for it. But we should put Netanyahu and his cabinet on trial as well. There can be more than one monster at a time
