I have a pixel 10, Google speakers, smart devices all over my house. "Upgrading" to Gemini has made everything worse. It is far less reliable than the standard Google assistant, and is constantly performing tasks incorrectly, telling me it can or will do things it can't, fails to understand context (e.g. I tell a speaker in the bedroom to turn out the lights, and it shuts down the whole house), and is constantly narrating idiotic mundane things. It is worse than useless -- turned something useful into something that not only doesn't work as well, but wastes my time and actively lies to you about its capabilities (way beyond the hallucinations I've seen with other LLMs). It's completely gumm

And enlisting your patients in the military is not good doctoring imo. Welcome to residency!!!

My program currently has residents switching from 12 hr days to 12 hr nights the day after. So, you work 6am to 6pm, supposedly have 24 hrs off until the next shift which starts at 6 pm the following day.

The thing is, 1) it fucking sucks and 2) with sign out / late consults, it means we are never actually off at 6. If things run efficiently at sign out, can leave at 615 if we're lucky, but often sign out runs for half an hour, and if there is a late consult, who the fuck knows...

My question is: is this an ACGME violation? My reading of the rules is that you are to get 1 day off in 7, or a continuous 24 hr period, and the exception for sign out / cont of care exception does not appl

Pretty much all in the title. The drop in serum K+ makes the resting membrane potential more negative, and skeletal muscle less excitable. So, what's the mechanism of spasm? How do you get from less excitable skeletal muscle to aberrant contraction?

I'm probably being an idiot, but I'm pretty confused about why you see episodic sweating in the classic headache-palpitations-sweating pheochromocytoma triad. Headache and palpitations make a lot of sense -- it's a pretty straight line from inappropriate catecholamine release to those symptoms -- but sweat gland receptors are cholinergic. So, despite the fact that they're innervated by (cholinergic) sympathetic nerves, I wouldn't expect a response.

Anybody able to explain the mechanism here?

Hi Reddit!

When I make a cloze card with multiple deletions, it automatically defaults to having each deletion generate a separate card -- so c1, c2, c3, etc.

Is there a way to change the default setting so that each deletion I make is on the same card? (i.e. appears as c1, c1, c1...) I'm wasting a lot of time going through and manually switching from default.

Thanks! (And sorry if this is a stupid question -- I looked in the manual briefly but couldn't find anything.)

Hello,

I just purchased a Lenovo Yoga 920, with Office365 under an educational license. When connected to the internet, I can't even create a notebook -- I just get an endless loading screen. It's quite literally useless, super slow, nothing works...

When offline everything works great. Other office apps app appear unaffected.

Any help appreciated. :-)

An advisor of mine, who spent a decade plus on an admissions committee of a top-tier school, has indicated to me that working for a test prep company is likely to make admissions committees discount high MCAT scores, the perception being that such work puts you at a significant advantage on the MCAT relative to other students. She believes including my teaching experience on my application adds an "unnecessary element of risk."

I am struggling with this choice -- I think that entry includes valuable teaching, mentoring, and leadership experience I am loath to remove, but I hold this advisor's opinion in very high esteem.

So...

Anyone out there who's taught MCAT-prep classes include their

Hi r/MechanicAdvice!

I have a 2005 Subaru Legacy Outback with about 125,000 miles. Other than needing to replace a bearing about a year ago, and a battery here and there it's run wonderfully.

But a couple weeks back that dreaded bearing noise came BACK. Turns out it's a different bearing, so no warranty on it or anything like that, and they found a whole host of other issues - some I knew about (washer fluid lines need replacement), some I didn't (stabilizer links). I've included the estimate breakdown below, but it comes to about ~$1500, still close to $1000 if I skip some of the smaller problems.

SO MY QUESTIONS ARe: 1) Should I fix the car? 2) If I do, how long do you think it
