You know…with the expansion of AI/LLM, I predict people will take a lot less “guideline” preferred therapies.

Why?

An LLM will dispassionately lay out how small absolute risk reductions will be for many of our recommendations

Ashura is a time of remembrance, sacrifice and reflection. 

Today, on the 10th day of Muharram, we are reminded of Imam Hussain's unwavering commitment to truth and dignity. His timeless legacy reminds us of the enduring values of faith, service to one another, and the belief that justice is always worth fighting for.

Our City’s strength comes from the many faith traditions that shape it — and our shared struggle against injustice and oppression.

May we carry these values forward as we continue building a more just City for every New Yorker.

The Arabic word for “ink” is “midaad” (مداد). It comes from “madda” (مدّ), which means “to extend.” Arabic named ink after what it does: it extends your thoughts beyond your body.

🐍 CNY greetings from Riyadh 🐎

[Sachin H. Jain, MD, MBA @sacjai]

When my mother first came to this country in the 1970s, my father was busy with his anesthesiology residency and moonlighting to make ends meet.

One day, she saw an advertisement on a corkboard in the apartment building where they lived, “babysitter needed.” She decided to respond.

She started with one child—the son of a nurse—for a few dollars/night. Word quickly spread and their small apartment was transformed into a daycare.

Soon she was the go-to babysitter running a defacto daycare for the wide-range of people living in the building. The kids loved her and would marvel at the rotis she made that inflated on her stove.

“Mrs. Jain has magic,” they would shout.

Pretty soon she was making $200/week. Over the course of a year, she was able to save $10,000. That $10,000 became the down payment for our family’s first home in the United States.

I will never cease to be amazed at the courage—and the hustle—of people like my parents who picked up their whole lives to make it in another country.
