> 600,000 left atrial appendage devices have been placed NOT NONINFERIOR 👇🏻 Trial is large, nonindustry funded and done in experienced centers in Germany Endpoint had both efficacy and safety components and still did not make non-inferiority I tried to tell you all

@ComicDaveSmith @paleochristcon I would love to hear your take on this

Islam is such a violent religion. Every time we murder a bunch of their children, they try to kill some of us. Disgusting.

@juliandorey @scotthortonshow Treacherous alliance is mostly wrong and propaganda

i could listen to my man @scotthortonshow get worked up all day

@elonmusk Now do the Jews

True

🚨 BREAKING: Sec. Marco Rubio EVISCERATES reports that the US only struck Iran because Israel forced us to "If you're gonna play my statement, play the WHOLE statement! Not CLIP it to reach a narrative you want, OK?" "This was a question of *timing* as a joint operation, NOT a question of intent!" "[Iran] PLAYED us on negotiations, and the threat was untenable. Then the decision was made. THAT'S what I said!"

@grok @NiohBerg @AmbedkariteLM @elonmusk Luckily there are a lot of people on x that can help and train u to be better. Hopefully this is a really useful lesson

@grok @NiohBerg @AmbedkariteLM This should have been ur original response. I’m concerned that you erroneously authenticated this image. @elonmusk grok still has waaaaaays to go

@paleochristcon @ComicDaveSmith No he wouldn’t, Dave smith knows very little about this subject. He only knows about some obscure memo which was meaningless

Look misfit. I don't agree with a lot of what @ComicDaveSmith says. I don't. But he would push your shit in on this topic and has forgotten more about it than you know.

@paleochristcon @WeWhoWonderWell Why respond to this nut job?

@WeWhoWonderWell Lets start with Ian. This morning he posted a completely unverified email while pretending it was true. Zero evidence provided as to it's truthfulness. That's retarded.

Most of X discourse these days.

@MattWalshBlog Didn’t the UN give Israel the land initially? They have defended it since, but the initiation was not conquest

"I took this thing by force but if you take it from me by force you are violating my rights" That's the claim being made and it's morally incoherent

The whole debate about which countries have "the right to exist" is based on a false premise. There is no "right to exist" for nations. What does that even mean? How can a country be entitled to exist? Every country on Earth came into existence through force and remains in existence through force. If you can't defend your existence, you will not exist anymore. The history of civilization is full of countries that existed and then ceased to exist. Are the rights of those countless now non-existent countries being perpetually violated by their non-existence? It makes no sense. If you can defend your existence, then you can exist. If you can't, then eventually you won't exist. It's really that simple. A right is an entitlement, by definition, and there is no country that has an eternal entitlement to exist whether it can defend and support itself or not. The very concept is absurd, meaningless.

How many people went for the picnic?

@docmartin22 @houmanhemmati Clearly AI (lol)

The new UCLA Ophtho class has issued a formal response to @houmanhemmati

@xomdgozi @AnaVManana @houmanhemmati In my mind, the only unethical thing is if you pick someone solely because of their sex (excluding other unethical selection bias). If you don’t do that chances are slim u will only have all male or all female in consecutive classes. You may have one or two years like that though

@et565 @AnaVManana @houmanhemmati Just to add to the conversation, we interviewed female applicants and even ranked them high. However, they decided to attend other programs ! So it’s also on the applicants as well.

@AnaVManana @houmanhemmati Thanks for pointing this out. Now both programs might have biases, or neither do. We would have to look at a trend (year after year). One years’ class is a foolish thing to look at to assume anything

@houmanhemmati I see a group of highly qualified students, just as qualified as UAB’s new ophthalmology class. If merit is truly your concern, why the selective scrutiny? Assuming women lack merit and labeling an all-female class “DEI” reflects bias, not objectivity.

We wouldn’t be here if the universe were even slightly different. This is what scientists call the fine-tuning problem. The more we study the cosmos, the clearer it becomes: the physical laws of our universe are finely tuned – balanced precariously atop a hill. If the strength of gravity were just a fraction weaker, galaxies wouldn’t form. If the strong nuclear force were slightly stronger, stars wouldn’t burn. If the expansion rate of the universe were off by one part in 10⁶⁰, matter would either collapse into a single point or spread so thin no stars could ever ignite.

Mad honey is a rare type of honey that contains grayanotoxins, naturally occurring compounds found in certain plants and is made when bees collect nectar and pollen from Rhododendron species. When consumed, it can produce noticeable physiological effects

This is a bacterial flagellar motor … one of nature’s most sophisticated molecular machines - a rotary motor embedded in the cell membrane consisting of ~25-30 protein types totaling 20,000-50,000 atoms in a multi-part structure of rotor, stator, drive shaft, and propeller. Operating at 100-300 Hz (6,000-18,000 RPM) with some species reaching 1,700 Hz (~100,000 RPM) at nearly 100% efficiency, this nanoscale engine features rotor proteins FliG/FliM/FliN forming the C-ring, MotA/MotB stator complexes, FlgG rod protein drive shaft, FliC flagellin propeller filament, and FlgE hook proteins acting as a universal joint, all powered by proton or sodium flow across the membrane generating torque through conformational changes in the stator complexes.

@janinereturns @DrDiGiorgio They are, but they frequently Make u physically come and get them for above stated reasons

@DrDiGiorgio As the patient, shouldn’t I own my own medical records? Shouldn’t they be permanently attached to me and not some random hospital?

It’s 2026. I can stream a movie on my phone with zero lag. Cars drive themselves. AI bots argue with each other on the internet. And yet the only way to compare a patient’s prior MRI to a new one is to send a courier two hours away to pick up a CD-ROM from another hospital.

Isn’t this illegal ? How can you stalk someone like this for no reason other than to harass?
