@tjparker @Yuchenj_UW Unrelated. I have never met more incompetent doctors than the ones in Urgent Care in suburban MA. Maybe it’s the last in class & the stragglers who get those jobs. Don’t come at me. I speak from personal experience. Still…I choose them over sitting for hours in an ER.💀

@Yuchenj_UW Don’t necessarily disagree with your point. But you’ve got to be a pretty bad clinician to not diagnose this as orthostatic hypotension. I’m a mediocre pharmacist and even I knew that.

For the first time, I truly believe AI might replace doctors. I felt dizzy every morning when standing up from bed, and even worse after moving to a hill in SF, the dizziness hit me every time I climbed. Visited my primary care doctor twice; both times, they said it's normal, just exercise more. I assumed I was just getting older and perhaps overworking. Out of curiosity, I asked ChatGPT. It said the symptoms could be "orthostatic hypotension" and recommended electrolyte water. Skeptical, but I tried it anyway. Amazingly, the dizziness vanished after just two drinks. It's been weeks, and I've been totally fine. I feel kind of dumb for not asking ChatGPT earlier, the problem has troubled me for over 1 year! From now on, I'll be saying "thank you" to AI a lot more often.

@Luke97336056 @Anele Lies and more lies. Jesus do people not do even a pinch of research before they run their mouths? The USA has most cases & class action cases against Uber. SA doesn’t even make the list for the top 10 complainers. ChatGPT is your friend.

@Anele Uber in South Africa gets more complaints than the United States. Uber has created 1,5 million jobs for Uber drivers in South Africa. And drivers are messing up their jobs. Thata painful South Africa fix your life not the clients

@Lihle_rulashe @Anele @Uber_RSA I once had a Xhosa domestic worker who was lazy, entitled and stealing. That’s not South Africans; it’s just one lady. Migrant workers in SA aren’t trying to run for office. They just want to be left alone to work to send money home. Stop xenophobia.

@ILaughAtYo95117 @ExposeDarkDeeds @CollinRugg This isn’t doxing. Doxing would be posting the man’s ID, home address, his phone # , email, car license plates, SSN# or other private identification that can be used to cause him harm. Social media profiles only count if set up as private. That’s hacking.

NEW: Man with a suspended license joins court Zoom call while driving in his car. This is the funniest video I've seen in a long time. Judge Cedric Simpson can be seen dumbfounded after defendant Corey Harris dialed into the meeting from his car. Simpson: "Mr. Harris, are you driving?" Harris: "Actually, I'm pulling into my doctor's office, actually. Just give me one second." Judge Simpson then revoked Harris's bond and ordered him to turn himself into the local jail. The incident happened in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

@xpiiikaseth @TopbreeshTV Who cares? Let’s see. The talented kids who attend actual drama and music lessons AFTER a full day of academia, who auditioned the hell out of this role, only to be told it went to a lackluster kid whose mom and dad paid for her to be on stage. 🙄. Make it make sense.

@TopbreeshTV I cannot sing for LIFE but my school let me have a staring role one time when I was a kid. Simply for my personality. I was having more fun than anyone “that had talent”. Let the girl have fun. Jesus Christ people. Who cares?

I am shocked to hear that a new novel reviewed by the New York Times and promoted by many mainstream influencers and voices can’t even be found front of store with new fiction! Do you even read the books or just decide a Kenyan voice is not mainstream?

.@ExclusiveBooks are you too guilty of #colorcoding? Even as an Africa-based book chain? When do you decide to relegate novels to your pan African/African fiction sections &do you have sections to similarly relegate European stories/authors?Are white voices considered mainstream?
