@WilliamShatner Captain, I am interested in participating. Please put me on your list

If you participate you will get $1 from me and $25 as a Welcome Gift from X. You can connect a bank account to move money into the account at 6% yearly interest, set up a virtual debit card to spend that $25 while you order your physical metal debit card from the bank…

Maybe my residents sometimes doubted me also, but I agree that if the patient looks sick and feels sick, they ARE sick, so perhaps your attending was teaching you an important medical lesson. Also; healthy people don’t just fall over and break bones

Yes, you are exactly right. Physicians must again lead the way using this opportunity, and availability of hospital beds, to provide more effective care. In the years just prior to the Polio Vaccine there were 50,000 American Children paralyzed annually by the disease, with orthopaedic wards or dedicated hospitals full of children with the disease. The last epidemic year was 1956. There were empty wards and hospitals, and idled orthopaedic surgeons, but not for long. This was what allowed modern orthopaedic treatment to begin. Modern fracture surgery began with AO/ASIF, founded in 1958. Sit John Charley performed the first modern hip replacement in 1962. Now, instead of treating the crippling effects of Polio, Orthopaedic surgeons enable those crippled by arthritis to function again with joint replacement surgeries that are some of the most successful and beneficial of all elective surgeries. Fracture treatment was transformed. Previously devastating fractures can now be safely and effectively treated restoring function after terrible trauma. #orthopaedic

@DirtyTesLa ts.la/steven189311 My Tesla X is a great car, comfortable, great visibility, handles well, & good power. FSD and smart summon make it safer, more fun, and more convenient. I recommend a test drive

If you have ZERO Tesla referrals, reply to this post with your referral link If you need a referral link for $1,000 off a Cybertruck, pick one of the links below!

@simonmaechling Medicine is Biology , Biology is Biochemistry , Biochemistry is Chemistry, Chemistry is Physics, Physics is Mathematics, Mathematics is the language needed to describe and objectively measure reality. Reality is only occasionally fun

Chemistry is fun until someone tells you it's all physics.

@Kekius_Sage In your frame of reference (and every other frame of reference) light is moving at C for all observers, but for a photon time is not passing, so speed has no meaning for the photon

If light has no Mass... why can't it go faster than 299,792,458 m/s?

@Jason I was also expecting something big from AI

🤦😂

Vince Lombardi said “Practice doesn't make perfect. Only perfect practice makes perfect”. Some complications can be avoided. A surgeon learns from assisting & from an assistant. A coach can see what you cannot. Orthopaedic surgery has the advantage of intra-op & post-op imaging. M&M conference is essential

An excellent article for any surgeon or aspiring surgeon.

I have close friends who, after 50 years, won't talk to me. They no longer tolerate our 50-year differences of opinion that are now intolerable signs of my moral failure & outweigh our history together. I grieve the loss.

Some of the difference, however, is due to individual negotiations. I know two Orthpaedic surgeons, contemporaries with identical fellowship training, recruited to the same university faculty, both working half time at the affiliated VA hospital, hired at the same time in the 1990’s. The male was given a much larger VA salary, corrected about a decade later

If this were actually true adjusted for time, call, availability, specialty, and so on. An enterprising entrepreneur starting a medical group could offer top female (and male) physicians 90% instead of their current 80%, and save 10% of salary costs, making a large profit compared to groups paying males 100%. One would not need to discriminate, just offer 90% to all, and differentially incentivize those currently getting less. The physicians previously getting 80% get a big raise. Win-Win

I challenge the men in medicine to try to reply without taking a defensive position. I know you can do it.

@SawyerMerritt ts.la/steven189311 Referral code for purchase or for a trial of Self Driving on an existing Tesla

I’m now maxed out on referrals for the rest of the year. Time to help you guys get some Tesla referrals! Drop your referral links below and I’ll send people asking for a code to the comment section to select one. Won’t be able to help everyone, but will do what I can. For those curious, here's what people ordered using my code: • Model Ys: 6 • Cybertrucks: 3 • Model 3: 1

@northwoods1980 One will see important knee cartilage loss with a standing PA at 30 degrees of flexion x-ray when a standing AP is misleading and looks much more benign. Consider it an essential part of a routine exam

Maybe doesn't matter and I'm just overly particular but w some of the Ortho groups that don't do partial flexion AP, I still have arguments w them because I see this daily. But again, maybe not that clinically relevant and I'm wasting our time?

@chamath youtu.be/DHIs7LSJcIA?si… Start about 2 minutes in…

This is a Woody Allen joke from about 65 years ago "I formed a corporation this year, and I'm the president, my mother is vice president, my father is secretary and my grandmother is treasurer, my uncle is on the board of directors, and they got together the first week, and they tried to squeeze me out".

So good…

1. Your 99.99% can’t be correct, because more than 0.01% are participating in and profiting from fraud. More than 0.03% of Americans are convicted of fraud crimes annually, more than 3x your estimate. 2. DOGE claimed that more than 0.1% collected federal funds via waste, fraud, and abuse, 10x your estimate. 3. More than 0.4% of Minnesota received monthly kickbacks for seeking autism services alone, 40x your estimate. 4. If that large majority were against fraud there would not have been enough people left to explain the large support for and to carry out the anti Tesla violence in response to DOGE. About half the country opposes DOGE

Waste, fraud and abuse is the quickest path to victory in the midterms and 2028 for whoever chooses to take it -- Democrats, Republicans or Independents. 1. Perfect target: corrupt incumbents & fraudsters. 2. Easy alignment: 99.99% of Americans want to stop WFA -- the only opposition are the people doing the fraud! 3. Simple Communication: "We're going to audit everything starting in day one of my administration, encourage whistleblowers with payments and freeze funding to anything that smells rotten." ... and perhaps the @america should make this their #1 stated issue? Do the work @GovernorShapiro @GavinNewsom @RoKhanna @JDVance @marcorubio @gretchenwhitmer!

Universal government healthcare could start with mandatory government service at age 18, either military or not, minimum 2 years (maybe 3 or 4 if non military service is elected) for all men and women. Military Veterans would be eligible for VA care, as they are now, and a parallel system could be established for those doing non military service, which could grow gradually as the pool of those who served grows. Nobody gets a deferment from service, and those older than 18 could voluntarily serve, and become eligible after serving honorably. Every American adult would then be eligible for healthcare withina few decades, after earning it through honorable service.

How would you solve universal healthcare in America

@larryelder I didn’t meet the beauty standards either. Selected “Ugliest Man on Campus”, UMOC, in 1972, at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology @MIT , with more votes than anyone previously in the competition, based on natural talent. Still trapped by those beauty standards today

"Let me explain something to white people. Our hair comes out CURLY. “When we straighten it to follow YOUR beauty standards, we are TRAPPED by the straightness! “That's why so many of us can't swim, won't go to the gym because we're trying to keep our hair straight for y'all! It's exhausting, expensive and takes up so much time!! “Why do we need an act of law to tell White folks to get outta our hair?!" —@MichelleObama #SpeakForYourself

Thank you @DavidSacks @theallinpod for the positive impact upon and education of Americans. Your dedication and personal sacrifices are improving our lives and futures
