Im sorry but as a doctor this made me crack up. I don't know what it is about HN that makes people jump into every medical thread and say really absurd things. Skipping screening tests isn't one-upping your PCP. You just get to play harder with specialty when stuff starts to break. Good luck buddy.

It's not just medical threads, it's tech too. You (probably, I'm assuming) just don't know the tech as well as you do the medicine, so it doesn't stand out as absurd to you.

I have expertise in both. I think the difference is that when moving from the highly rigid world of medicine into tech, I expected the varied level of skill and knowledge that exists. It just throws you off seeing people in tech with no background in medicine talk about medicine like they know it.

Most of my closest friends are docs. A couple of times at a brewery I've had them read some braindead takes from here for laughs. The people here making wild comments on the architecture of o1 or whatever don't get the same reaction from the crowd.
