That's okay, they're watching surgery tutorials on Youtube, just gotta wait through a few minutes of ads, how quickly can you really bleed out?

What's the doctor's equivalent of an Indian guy on YouTube?

One of the two greatest sources of programming knowledge. Every programmer has learnt most of what they know from stackoverflow questions and tutorials from Indian guys on YouTube.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Back in the last millennium, before the days of the internet, we had to learn to program from these things called books. There was no Stack Overflow or ChatGPT to ask questions. If you were lucky, there was "man" pages. I'll see myself out to the nursing home now.

I still prefer trial and error and some documentation if it exists.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I also learned a lot in college.

An Indian surgeon on YouTube, probably.

Working on pre-nursing courses now, and even cheating aside, the online shit is a bad joke. Like instead of lecture you just get assigned chapters.

"Online lab" and "online clinicals" are both a thing, and they're both as stupid as they sound. And every hospital is hurting for nurses so badly that school programs are under a lot of pressure to just accept everyone who applies.

I don't see good things for the future of the healthcare industry. Hopefully all the bullshit will at least translate to a decent pay check, but I know better than to put any faith in that either.

friendly reminder to unionize and fight back

Fuck yeah! One of the cool things about a universal staffing shortage in a specific field is even if I get fired, there will always be demand somewhere else. 100% support for the strikes going on lately, and will absolutely hold the line when it's my turn.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Maybe your nurse practitioner “doctor” with a joke for exams and fully online curriculum, but an MD or DO in the US absolutely cannot cheat their 4 full days of board exams (steps 1-3) to get licensed. Physician board exams are video recorded, show IDs and get fingerprinted and patted down even going in and out for bathroom breaks.

You still need to eat healthy, fatty.

This guy hasn't heard about the neural implant yet 😏

If there's anything I learned from chess, it's that they can't pat down the inside of your asshole!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Source for the pat down thing? Thats messed up if true

[–] [email protected] 22 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I don't need a future doctor, I have Dr. ChatGPT.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

That's worrying

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago

Nah just eat those flintstone multivitamins they've got the power of gods

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago (4 children)

I'm lazy, so whenever I need to start eating healthy, I get bags of carrot sticks and munch on those during the day, but that gets boring after a while.

Anyone here has any tips to make them taste better but still keep them healthy? (No ranch dressing, etc.)

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

I was in the same boat. Started marinating them in balsamic vinegar with a bit of salt and pepper and I can't stop eating them! You can add rosemary, hot pepper flakes, etc to change the flavor as you wish.

[–] ciapatri 3 points 10 months ago

I like to dip them in hummus. Sliced cucumbers with hummus is also a good snack.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Not what you asked for but my lazy healthy meal is soylent. I have 500 - 1000 calories a day. Almost no effort, sorta cheap, sorta healthy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Roasted carrots are great. You can throw some fingerling potatoes in there too and it will keep you fuller longer.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

But then I would want honey glaze, and honey glaze is the devil... a delicious, delicious devil.

Miss Robbie, we've asked you to stick to the regime laid out by your dieticians several times now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

You can't make me diet when I'm still on strike, killeronthecorner, I get to eat burgers and drink beer whenever I want now.

Maintenance guy for your body.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Really expensive meat mechanic

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

And the surgeon is body carpenter.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Right?

I’m just getting diagnosed and prescriptions filled by the same person behind the pharmacy counter now.

Urgent care is just nurses.

Seeing a doctor is like finding a unicorn in the wild now.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

They're learning from chatgpt, rip us

Before children i was matriculating to medical school. I caught many of the top students cheating. Under capitalism they say if you're not cheating you're not trying.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Capitalism is the system of winners! And winners make the money and write the rules! And you can't cheat if you write the rules!

This has been a thing for a while. Also, I'd rather have them realize they don't know and look up an answer than guess. I'm happy with doctors being professional "cheaters," but we have to get with the times.

Is Salad once a week good?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Oh good so salads will fix congenital issues now. Better get to taking some extra coconut oil.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Time to turn over a new leaf... or eat one.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

You know what they call the guy who graduated bottom of his class in medical school?

"Doctor."
