Let me explain it to you from a medical perspective. One can be fairly sure of the diagnosis, but stakes of calling it wrong are so high, that you cross the T's and dot the I's to prove that it isn't an MI for instance. THIS is how we are trained. Cost and insurance are almost never a factor in these kind of decision making processes.
Let's say they didn't: (and this same type of back and forth q and a I have observed of attendings teaching resident's with the below line of questioning
1)patient discharged with diagnosis of 'pericarditis' 2)patient found dead 1,2, 5 etc days later of MI 3) attorney in court: "Doctor, did you check serial troponins? etc etc etc? 4)attorney in court: "Doctor, can a MI present with crushing chest pain etc etc?"
So, even though sometimes the diagnosis appears to be obvious, when the stakes are high, responsible and thorough health care providers will follow this kind of a path to make sure things are not missed.
I don't want it to have to have line of sight to my face. What a fricking step back. I can reach my hand into my pocket and touch the button to unlock. I can unlock in the dark. It is retarded and as someone who has owned every generation of iphones and ipads, I will quit buying them because of that stupid feature.
No, I disagree. As someone who has some background in computers/it/programming (programming in C and fortran for fun in college as elective classes) as well as being Physician Assistant taking care of patients, I think you are totally off track.
Your customer is your customer - the users and purchases of your software. That would be like saying that you develop POS software and the customers in the hardware store are your customers... . You thinking you know better than the medical professional as to how the program should work for me is the same as me telling you what development language or database backend you should use.
Listen to your customers... highly educated physicians, physician assistants, nurse practioners who are highly analytic when they tell you there are good reasons to do things certain ways.
You act like easy to use and safe for patients are contradictions...
I contend that I have used applications that were safe for patients that were easy to use and not easy to use and vice versa.
what robots can do is achieve automation is standard settings. No two patients anatomy is exactly alike. Common wisdom in surgical culture is that any monkey or individual can do a simple surgery. That is not what you need people for. You need people for the *judgement* of what to do in certain situations. To appropriately assess and make the right medical judgement during surgery when someone's life is on the line is not something that will be done autonomously by robots.
Blaming robots for bad surgical outcomes is like blaming PCs for a virus or an accidentally deleted system file.
Surgeons are people. People have the ability to make mistakes. If you make a mistake with your computer, you lose some photos, or trash your hard drive etc. If you make an accidental mistake as a surgeon -- whether done open or robotically -- bad things happen to people.
Thus, just like on here people say IANAL and that you should get *good* legal advice. You should go to surgeons that a large experience. With more experience, there is less chance of bad outcomes happening.
All the imagining of humans fails to grasp the divine. We have a loving heavenly Creator who created us and cares for us. God has been maligned by Satan and many humans over the centuries to the point that people now believe that he didn't create us, or if he did that he is somehow evil and attribute to him the evil of this world that is from Satan. Jesus cares for you, loves you and desires to save. God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son to die on a cross that he could fully demonstrate how much love he has for humans to try and save them from their sin and Satan's deceptions.
Just because you can't prove we were created doesn't make it less so. God spoke and created us.
"This is one of the reasons some Palestinian groups give for targeting Israeli civilians - since every Israeli civilian is also a military reservist, these groups state that there is no such thing as an Israeli civilian in the traditional sense."
Which is just their justification for murder. Targeting civilians because they just might be able to be in the military at some point... puhleasse.
" but it does not in my mind give one free license to program children with it."
Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it. Our world would not have decended into so much evil as it has if parents taught their children of Jesus' love for them and taught them to demonstrate love for their neighbors. Are you really suggesting that there is something wrong with trying to raise one's children to love God and love their neighbors as themselves?
Without trying to brag, I consider myself to be very intelligent, well educated, in place in a professional high salaried position and yet I still enjoy some mindless ball-hits-crotch humor...
Of course there was a time when we were completely vegetarian. The diet in the Garden of Eden was fruits and vegetables. It wasn't until after the flood that God gave permission to eat animal flesh. (obviously we don't share the same view of the history of the human race).
Pro 20:1 Wine 1 is a mocker 2 and strong drink is a brawler; whoever goes astray by them is not wise.
As just one example. Most scholars with careful reading of the bible acknowledge that alcohol is warned against. The repeated reference to wine are the fresh juice not what we call wine today. Jewish scholars of the language of the time and a careful reading of the greek illustrate this. Go ahead and drink if you want, but the don't go and use the Bible to defend it. It just isn't there taking all verses into context.
He espouses the notion that lower cholesterol levels are not healthier. That statement is so much total bunk that it is on the order and level of other statements like "Smoking doesn't cause cancer" "The earth is flat" etc.
Conclusive proven evidence shows that the lower your cholesterol or the more you *lower* your cholesterol, the lower the risk of heart disease related events etc. Not even worth our time to discuss. A frank waste of time and valuable intertubes!

Convert photos to DNG in Adobe Lightroom and use the ability for it to check for file changes. Store on a Drobo with dual disk redundancy.

I chuckled when I saw someone had added that tag. That was my reaction too.

actually this is incorrect. this reported 2 recent patients. It has been used on 50+ patients in the recent couple of years.
The treatment of humans was mostly done all at Mayo. I personally work with Dr. Kwon and referred many of my patients for this therapy.
posted obviously for the score

We are forced to consider this response a serious response ... which is difficult to due.
To believe in this day and age that someone falls for the classic 'my mac sucks' troll is truly humbling.
If this is indeed a repsonse with tongue placed firmly in cheek, the believability would be enhanced with just a hint as to your true intention.
