What I don’t understand is why we are not having a massive push for home office like we did five years ago. Instead, companies just shrug off the higher gas prices because the burden is carried by their employees.

Wir Frauen müssen nicht auch noch für die Männer mitdenken. Dafür haben die doch ihr eigenes Gehirn (oder eine Kalender). Wir haben doch schon genug zu tun!

Und heutzutage könnte man auch massiv auf Home Office umstellen. Wie vor gerade mal fünf Jahren. Aber was soll’s, die Kosten tragen ja die Arbeitnehmer 🤷‍♀️

Yes, and - my group was able to attract a fantastic new faculty member from Florida for that reason.

Black robot vacuum wandering a hospital office hallway.

Someone’s vacuum escaped and is working in our hallway. I’ve invited it to my office but it declined. I’ve named it neutron. #MedPhys

Not only that, but now some of our cancer patients struggle with gas money to get to their treatments. We need Medicare for all.

I’ll never forget that day in middle school history class when our history casually mentioned thatthist was the very date Germany would have finished to pay WWI reparations. Mind blown.

Totally didn’t get it because I live in Yolo County (no kidding!) and it’s two month early to plant peppers 😂

Not everyone has the opportunity to go to college. None of my grandparents or my parents did. But they were smart, curious, read a lot, and found other pathways to gaining expertise.

Senator Mullin doesn’t seem to have done any of that.

Indeed, you can save $$$ by using the library your taxes are paying for anyway. Ebooks, audiobooks, eMagazines.

Fun fact: Californians can get a library card in every single California County. You only need to show residence in California. That’s basically unlimited books.

Huge fan! Do British libraries also offer ebooks and audiobooks through an app? Most libraries in California do.

Fun fact: California libraries are organized by county due to funding system. Every Californian can get a card from any California county library independent of where they live.

This is an exhibition at Pu’uhonua o Hōnaunau National Historic Park on the Big Island just south of Kona. Also close to the place where Captain Cook met his maker.

About once a month I check the free versions of several AI tools with a fairly simple question in an area I have deep expertise in. The answers so far are clear: AI is not ready yet. It can’t distinguish misinformation from data; it can’t figure out changes from progress over time.

I wanted to share this with you. Hawaiians have a name for each phase of the moon. They were very serious about astronomy!

The Scouting America #BSA #Scouts just sent out an email to all its members. In this email, they violated about 2/3 of the Scout Laws they allegedly have sworn to uphold.
Instead of the Citizenship in Society Merit badge, my family will have a discussion on principled leadership.

I was told my fatigue was because of a stressful job and taking care of a kid.

It was my ferritin level. Bless the family physician who finally send me to the lab. Issue was fixed within weeks.

Why is this not a standard lab with annual physical for ALL women?

Amen.

Had a classmate who was a rare female haemophiliac. She contracted HIV through a blood transfusion before we knew about it or tested. Lived on bravely until a C diff infection got her. She was 17.

My math/physics teacher was from Norway. He said when he was young, you needed to be able to hit 50 m in the ski jump to have a chance with the girls.

He married a German.

Is it considered cheating if a dog chasing you gives you the extra boost to finish? 😂

Amen! Proofing the chapter proof for Practical Medical Physics now because kittens woke up and chose a stroll over the keyboard.
