@Gok Now this is a use case for augmented reality that I can get behind. Whack -a-mogul.

Just your run of the mill radiology resident. Opinions, like the brain in my header, are my own.

I assume this article is nonsense because skiing moguls while playing whack-a-mole is actually rad
Ed Yong is not here@edyong209
Anyway. Navigating through this continues to be awful--like skiing around moguls, while also playing whack-a-mole. I hope this piece helps. I look forward to being told that it is somehow both fearmongering grift *and* minimizing hopium. 15/ theatlantic.com/health/archive…

@CLARAmediSUN @KevinCChiang No, Medicare subsidizes residents but they are paid by the hospital, and hospitals almost certainly make money on this deal. HCA (a for profit system) isn't taking residents out of the goodness of their hearts, and the Hahnenann residents went for $55m.

Residents should be paid more, period. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

@PennRadRes @futureradres Prospective applicants, I promise my hair is not as gray as it looks in this photo. Residency has not in fact caused me to go gray.

@Gok Sounds like medicine. Surely the entire hospital system would have collapsed if I got weekends off as an intern.

True story: iPhone software team worked weekends in 2009 because Palm Pre was going to kill iPhone if we only worked weekdays.
So webOS fans, sorry about that. This was surely the only reason it failed.
Jordan Kong@ImNotJK
Unpopular opinion: the best thing young people can do early in their careers is to work on the weekends.

@ceelwaaq I had that habit too, then my HDD died out of nowhere (back in the 2000s when spinning discs were a thing). Never again

@ceelwaaq This is also a low key reminder to backup everything always. If it's not backed up on Dropbox or some equivalent, it might as well not exist

It will always be Comiskey Park.
It will always be Sears Tower.
It will always be Lake Shore Drive.
Tab Bamford@The1Tab
Chicago City Council is apparently voting to rename Lake Shore Drive just like that company bought the Sears Tower.

@Gok Depends on the curve. If that was my grade on a physics final, solid B if not A. Vaccination rate though? Z score might be a little too low...

@epi_rad @thats_bone @jbcarmody Have to be very careful in what defines a "good resident". Strongest outcome associations in the paper you cited were ITEs/Step 3/NBME. I don't know that people who historically did well on a standardized test continuing to do well on standardized tests really proves much.

Survey: Hey program directors, how do you feel about pass/fail Step 1?
PDs: Oh, it’s *TERRIBLE*
Survey: I see - so does using Step 1 scores actually help you find successful residents?
PDs: Nah, not really

@Gok @octernion I really don't understand this incessant need for some people to insist on micromanaging how workers get their work done so long as it keeps getting done
English
@octernion The story here is that this company gave employees no warning or support, installed spy software in their homes, and in the middle of global pandemic workers still got all their work done. Oh but spent less time "focusing", which included hanging out at the office coffeemaker.
English
@asset25 It's not defined at all! This all seems to be based on a survey that literally asks people if they "use AI", which could mean anything from "yeah, Skynet just dictates everything" to "We have a semi-automated segmentation tool". A survey with a 7% response rate I might add 🙄
English
Also very much depends on how we're defining #AI - if it's deep learning, is it in fact <30% ?

@IR_Ethics @CJJonesMD Recommend image guided X... by Dr. Keller... on a Saturday

@CJJonesMD Last time I was on call it was actually my DR colleagues doing this: “Recommend image-guided X.” Not cool.

If other services could stop recommending we perform procedures in their notes, that would be great.
I don't recommend cholecystectomy by General Surgery. I recommend surgery consult.

@Gok @jonmasters Or just have near zero ability to cut the red tape and don't want to waste time and energy fighting what they can't change. Putting up with != agreeing with
English
@jonmasters And people who put up with red tape their entire careers come to believe that it's actually good thing because if they acknowledged how wasteful it is they'd go crazy.

This article was BS for the same reason many other things are BS: we are told how long things are “supposed” to take and conditioned to follow that. Sometimes big changes happen overnight with enough effort whether “experts” think that plausible or not. See also tech industry.

It's now been almost a year since the New York Times put together this technically impressive yet totally wrong interactive article about how long it would take to get a Covid vaccine.

Can we finally put to bed the notion that residents don’t make money for hospitals? A giant for-profit conglomerate isn’t sponsoring 1/20 US residents out of the goodness of their heart.
Bryan Carmody@jbcarmody
Here’s a statistic for you: HCA Healthcare - a for-profit hospital chain - now sponsors around 1 in 20 residency positions in the United States. hcatodayblog.com/2021/03/22/hca…

@jbcarmody How someone at AAMC published charts that showed continued increase in match likelihood even with high application numbers and expected that to cause people to apply to fewer programs is completely beyond me.
English
@jbcarmody Let's pretend 15 programs gives you a 85% chance of matching and 60 programs gives you a 95% chance of matching. As long as 10% chance of match is worth more than 45 applications, any rational person will apply to 60. The "diminishing returns" are utterly irrelevant.
English
The graph is pretty, sure.
But the data are biased and the presentation is misleading - and ultimately this analysis is far more likely to fuel Application Fever than to help residency applicants “apply smart.”

@asset25 At this point I'd settle for PS360 to at least recognize that "images 10 2 15" should in fact be "images 10-15" 🤦🏾♂️
