@AustinAJoseph76@DocPriyamMD This is the scary part of AI.
1) It's rubbish does not hold up under the most rudimentary scrutiny, yet it keeps spewing it with absolute confidence.
2) Ignorami keep amplifying the misinformation in their vacuous craniums and propagating it with confidence born of cluelessness
@Linahuaa I hope you know that your blood line will inherit the before-surgery body, even if you get pregnant long after the surgeries.
If you need surgery to become worthy enough to reproduce, society may be better off if you don't reproduce.
Just say'n...

You do a million unnecessary tests, do a bunch of unnecessary biopsies, you will likely hurt or kill a few people.
But you will save even more lives.
WRONG.
Decades of data has shown that at the societal level, far more people are hurt than helped from unnecessary scans.
@tastybits A certain percentage of asymptomatic patients will show something suspicious. At that point "just keep an eye on it" is not an option.
Any further testing wastes money.
It often results in biopsies which have a low, but non-zero probability of very serious complications.

@ArOkTxNm1@Lowes Friends don't let friends buy appliances at @Lowes.
Wherever you live, there's likely a locally owned store or a regional chain. The prices will be a little higher upfront, but the same or lower after these hidden charges.
The only way they survive is on exceptional service.
@SassyGirlBoss Congratulations and best of luck.
I hope you have done your research on zoning, utilities etc. A lot of people, especially first timers, who buy rural land find their dreams turn into nightmares.
Do look into these early, if you have not already. Rural might as well be foreign.

That applies to Hispanic, Asian and Native kids as well whose parents were held back.
Women are very under-represented in the field due to historic misogyny and financial incentives to bring up their numbers makes sense.
Gay mechanics.... I am with you on that one.
@amylcris Where is the white privilege?
White privilege is having a parent in a position to co-sign the loan.
The black kid's granddad fought with your dad, but was denied GI bill.
Your dad and granddad bought houses that are the bassis of the money you have. His were red-lined.

@jess_ann_pin Isn't that the definition of marriage already?
Are you telling me that i have been doing that when I did not have to?
Now I understand why she has never given me an article of clothing🙂
@AmiEverAfter Even if the DV legal clinic will not represent you for free, they may be able to refer to you a lawyer who will do this pro bono, at reduced rates or with extended payment terms. Ask them.
It is a tough situation to be in. If anyone has the grit and gumption to do it, it is you.
Text from an engineer friend:
"Call me. I have a crazy idea on how to solve [redacted] problem with [redacted] project. Want to run it by you. How violently you throw up will tell me if it's any good"
That's how real engineers talk👍
Turns out, it was INCREDIBLY BRILLIANT idea
@datingbyblaine The reason there is little difference between homeless men and AI decimillionaire is because the AI guy knows he will become the homeless guy as soon as the AI bubble bursts.
He also knows that is happening not that far in the future.
@FeralHeather Take care of yourself doc. I hope you are feeling better soon and feel less pressured by life events.
Your aficionados will miss you and your wonderful words, but you need to take care of yourself first.
Look forward to seeing you back soon.
@ManOfStxxx I have a theory.
Fact: Age at first marriage for men started increasing rapidly in late 80's.
Fact: The microwave oven became popular and affordable in the late 80's, giving single men more options to feed themselves.
Theory: The two are related.
@BlackPilledPaki I am totally confused.
If I did not give a dang about the woman, I would not be putting in any effort to ensure she had the best time or meet her wishes.
No orgasm? Not my problem. Want cuddling between rounds? Too bad. I'm watching TV.
Is that what women really crave?
@wil_da_beast630 Many states, especially red states, have eliminated or SEVERELY restricted alimony.
If he is low or middle income with a bunch of kids, there are no assets to split.
If he is high income, he has the brains and lawyers to structure assets to keep them from her.
She'll lose 100%
