Ravenfood posted:Fun fact: this utterly fucks over resident physicians, especially those who are planning on being PCPs, general practitioners, hospitalists, intensivists, or, really, anything besides highly over-paid specialists. Med school debt is so high in part because it comes with the promise of high wages (and it does) but residents earn basically gently caress-all. Their hourly rate is absurdly low given what they do: while they make an average of 50k/year pre-tax, they're working between 60-80 hours for huge chunks of that time, giving them an hourly wage that's as low as 13/hr. That doesn't count the fact that they're often on-call and responsible to outpatient clinic pages without being able to bill for those hours. So, ability to pay at around 250k in med school loans, plus undergraduate loans, is somewhat limited, and everyone I know has to take income-based repayment at least during their residency. Yes, attending salary is quite a bit better: but some of the costs of med school are predicated on the fact that people are absolutely gunning for the high-paying positions. One of the hardest specialties to get into is plastic surgery because of the salary, while general practitioner, which is essentially the most important as far as health outcomes for the country go, get much less and so is very easy to get into. Its somewhat mitigated by the public loan forgiveness program: unless a plastic surgeon works in a burn ward (and not a private, lucrative clinic) they won't be eligible for the forgiveness, but GPs would be. Personally, I'd rather not have this weird system where we massively dissuade people from going into general practice right at the same time we're facing a significant shortage of GPs, but that's me. (Or maybe we should, since I'm an NP student and the NP system is growing so rapidly because of the lack of physicians) My wife is a hospitalist at a public hospital and thinking about how this loan forgiveness thing will pan out / if we're doing the right thing paying off as little as possible right now with the hope the loans will be forgiven is one of the major stress points of my life. Your descriptions of residency are pretty spot on, though - my wife said if she did it all over again she was just become a PA instead of an MD. Ridiculous hours, high stress, and poo poo pay all with laughably large loans hanging over your head the whole time (and she went to a state school, it could have been even worse). It's ridiculous.

farraday posted:I don't know why you guys are so down on bitcoin, this seems normal and healthy. A friend of mine who owns a tiny amount of bitcoin said that there is a huge delay in the transaction history or something or rather and even if you wanted to trade your bitcoin for cash there is some sort of huge delay. Does anyone know if that's true? I know next to nothing about bitcoin (except not to buy any)

Shimrra Jamaane posted:This poll is either fake or old as hell. I just found it - something tells me whoever gave Trump that poll left out this other bit: quote:The majority of voters, 51 percent, did not approve of Trump's job in office. But his approval rating in the Dec. 1-3 survey is the highest since a Sept. 29-Oct. 1 poll in which he was also at 45 percent. He has not been higher than 45 percent since early July. He then dipped in August in the wake of his reaction to violence in Charlottesville, Va. edit: Worth noting it is (unsurprisingly) a huge outlier (its the dot on the dotted line)

Someone put that loving baby to sleep, she's way too young to be up this late and she's rubbing her eyes. Also, she's at the party of an accused pedophile, so, you know, maybe don't have her there at all.

If anyone is interested, Mike Cernovich - in another display of his desperate need to be taken seriously and be seen as a "journalist" - is doing an AMA over on Reddit. Thankfully, the shittier elements of Reddit aren't out in force as much as the good elements, so it's actually pretty funny: https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/7liww8/im_mike_cernovich_journalist_author_and_filmmaker/
