@cgfran01 @AaronGoodman33 My 4 yo son was inpatient for IV abx when I was on my ortho rotation in med school. My wife stayed with him on days and I stayed with him on nights. It was awful. It definitely affected my writing q4 vitals during internship. I mean, I did it, but I felt bad about it.

@AaronGoodman33 Agreed 1000%. Not seeing patients anymore but remember how bad the sleep interruption was for patients

@VPrasadMDMPH @Abdallah81MD @AaronGoodman33 > journals compete for the papers This is actually happening. Source: my inbox after dropping something on a pre-print server.

@Abdallah81MD @AaronGoodman33 Or double open. Bmj is double open. Imo the best way is Post all papers on pre-print server. Let people comment. Make edits and response. Post the changes. And then let journals decide which ones they want. Make journals compete for the papers.

8/ Disclaimers: All sorts of analysis I didn't do: accuracy of the dumbbells, varying the series used as X, no data between 190 and 210 lbs, nothing was NIST certified, etc.

7/ Thoughts: don't put too much stock in one data point. Structure your data. Avoid the rage to conclude. It's easier to consider local patterns when you have larger patterns too. Visualize the data. Break the rules when it makes sense. GET. MORE. DATA.

If you've been on a diet, you might appreciate how obsessively someone can track their weight, a thread.

@NavalAcademy your '97 grad Ken O'Donnell just won the national championship in Cross Country Mountain Biking!

Congrats to my old buddy Ken O'Donnell for winning the mountain biking cross country national championship! "I rode a mountain bike fairly swiftly" he said. Classic Ken.

@AaronGoodman33 Just yesterday, I recounted a very similar story, but the consultant was neurosurgery. F bomb was also dropped. Similar lesson: compose your presentation before you page the consultant so it's to the point.

@AaronGoodman33 They did it for the likes?

@Fedex: @VeteransHealth can't process my claim because Ship Manager doesn't recognize my federally assigned address, though @USPS validates it & you deliver to others near me. I've called your help lines many times, no joy. Would you please fix so I can access benefits? #Veterans

@JasonPathology The barista told me they are "Swiss bread"

@nielsolson Are those cottage loafs? Delicious!

@TobyCornish The Go gopher's expression is oddly perfect

These do ok reading microfiche. Why do I have microfiche? Long story. #desparatetimes #pathology

@EdwardTufte I'm forever grateful for your mentorship and support over the years. Your influence is everywhere in my work, only the errors are my own.
