   There are always going to be people who think that putting in more work simply means things are better.
   
   This simply isn't about that. It's about taking control of your life - being able to *make* hard cider such that you know what goes in it. Being able to clean a house and know exactly what was in the cleaner.

     @sickburnbro The busywork culture is the very poison that created the current corporate america that worships "hard work" over results and no worker works "harder" to compensate it's inneptitude than H1B "workers", they need double the time than the better qualified american workers in order to achieve half as much but that means they "work 4x harder" and thus they are "harder workers" than the lazy american workers.

     @EdBoatConnoisseur yeah. it's because of managerialism - when you are running a company that you don't understand inside and out, you focus on markers that you can judge success by.
     
     And just like GDP, once a metric becomes a goal, loses its effectiveness as metric - and then quickly becomes a bad goal.

     @sickburnbro people who did "trad" things every day out of necessity weren't spending a bajillion hours on them. they were efficient and skilled, because they had been taught how to do the tasks from a young age and had a ton of practice
     
     the typical trad larper has the equivalent knowledge and skill of an 8 year old at any given task

     @deprecated_ii @sickburnbro you know the OP in that image is a retard who knows nothing because most of the time "spent" while making cider is just waiting for fermentation to happen, so you can do whatever else, it's not like you need to keep watching it. It's just a matter of being smart and efficient with your time.
     
     I was born in a city of Italian migrants in a cold area, and around here many older houses (including my mom's) have a wood fire oven like the one pictured. It does double duty heating the house and also working as a regular cooking oven that cooks things very slowly. This, coupled with cast iron pans, can allow you to literally spend the entire fucking day cooking g something, and it's the "trad way" of doing it since the migrants came here in 1862. My mom still makes food like that, but she doesn't need to spend any more time than the prep time, she puts the pans on the oven and goes do anything else meanwhile.
     
     
     I think the problem is that younger people are retards.

     @ChadleyDudebro @EdBoatConnoisseur @sickburnbro Let me explain. No, there is too much. Let me sum up. In the US:
     
     >emphasis on aggressive interventions (surgical and pharmacological) over preventative measures
     
     >Patchwork system of medical insurance where the commercially insured are ridiculously overcharged in order to make up for the losses eaten on Medicaid/Medicare patients. This rapes uninsured Whites (who can get stuck with 6-figure hospital bills)
     
     >Explosion of hospital administrators (see chart) who are not revenue producers and actually are negative useless but need to justify their undeserved salaries
     
     >EMTALA (thanks Ronnie Raygun), an 'unfunded mandate' that states hospital ERs cannot refuse any patient regardless of ability to pay or even citizenship status

     @fsjat @sickburnbro @ChadleyDudebro @EdBoatConnoisseur Basically: you show up to ER and a medical professional has to assess you. If you have a condition that requires treatment they have to either admit you and treat the condition or transfer you to a hospital that can treat your problem if they cannot. Citizenship status and ability to pay are not factors.
     
     You will get a ridiculous bill later, assuming you are still in the country. Juan and Shanequa will laugh and wipe their asses with it, and eventually the hospital will either write it off, apply for "emergency Medicaid" to recoup pennies on the dollar, or try to involve collections agencies if you are White

     @ChadleyDudebro @TrevorGoodchild @EdBoatConnoisseur @sickburnbro the pharmaceutical industry is also a bit of a clusterfuck
     a lot of decent stuff should be out of patent and therefore generic and cheap, but pharma companies "improve" them and get a new patent, and they do a lot of work to get doctors to prescribe the new-and-improved stuff, so what should be a few cents per pill are now $2
     the flip side of this is fucked too
     a lot of good work goes into pharma research, but the patents go into effect before testing, which can take years. the patent is no bueno after 20 years, and it takes 5-10 years of testing to get approval, so you have to rape patients in order to make back the cost of R&D
     because of this, boutique diseases might get some research, but to pay for it it goes into some sketch territory
     pharma can actually do a lot of good. it can file off some of the genetic burrs that affect people, but it's expensive alchemy
     IMO pharma companies should not be allowed to sell publicly traded shares, it introduces too many perverse incentives

     @TrevorGoodchild @sickburnbro @EdBoatConnoisseur Since you bring up the medical field...like everything else, PSA is bullshit. Reminds me of the PCR test for Covid where the late Kary Mullis, inventor of the test, said quick unequivocally that it was *not* a diagnostic tool. The inventor of the PSA has fought for years against using PSA levels to diagnose prostate cancer. It's useful as a monitoring tool, only, for someone *already* diagnosed.

     @sickburnbro The issue is an AI can only work with the data it is given, and a lot of patients don't know the right information to give in order to maximize diagnostic accuracy. It has to be gently coaxed. This is why taking a proper history takes years to learn.
     
     Also, there's also the matter of the physical. A lot of diagnosis is nonverbal. A good doc learns a lot just watching the way a patient walks to and sits in an office chair

     @Snidely_Whiplash @sickburnbro I've known several who like to observe patients when they don't think they are being observed
     
     One of the sharpest was a dude who specialized in chronic pain. He kept a candy dish at his front desk. Since he was a bit of a health nut (very vocal about the evils of HFCS and refined sugar) this was very out of character. When asked about it over drinks, he smiled quietly and told me that opioid addicts invariably develop a bad sweet tooth. If he got a new patient with a story of severe pain and no medical findings, who was also begging for narcotics and raiding that dish when he thought no one was looking, said patient was informed politely that no drugs would be given.

     My friend has passed dozens and his wife gave him shit about pain one day and the female nurse told her that she had no clue what she was talking about about because stones are worse by far. Guess that nurse had experienced both

     For the person with the kidney stone it is a lack of magnesium I have made the four primary types of kidney stones and at one point I was producing three different types of stones at the same time after adding magnesium citrate powdered to my water my kidney stones have gone away at one point I had over a hundred tiny kidney stones and since they were too small for treatment I got to pass some of them but luckily the Magnesium helped , don't waste your time with magnesium tablets they don't dissolve nor get absorbed quick enough

     @JoshuaSlocum @sickburnbro It really do be liek dat, I encourage dudes who have gone through passing one to not let their wives/GFs pull the 'you don't know the pain of childbirth' line on them, ever

     @TrevorGoodchild @sickburnbro went to the ER with someone who was in a shitload of pain
     doc walked in, saw this person sitting, rolling, kneeling, shifting positions, and said "kidney stone"
     they verified, but yeah, kidney stone
     doc said that this dance, moving around trying to get comfortable, was practically diagnostic

     @TrevorGoodchild @JoshuaSlocum yeah, I mean there are many things that are extremely painful. I assume that having a dislocated joint is on the same rough level as childbirth, and relocating is on the same high end as painful parts of childbirth. Overall hopefully a quicker experience than childbirth ( but not so if you do it in a remote area, so be careful rock climbing )

     @TrevorGoodchild @Orkin_Awk @ChadleyDudebro @EdBoatConnoisseur @sickburnbro This is one of the few AI market segments where I see a potential gains for humans. AI has the potential to be much more accurate at differential diagnosis than humans. AI is already far outpacing humans in radiology diagnosis.

     The reason is that legally insurers can't be sued for damages for denying you the coverage you've paid for.

     Sometimes it goes full circle and you accidentally rip your skin open by getting too much superglue on your fingertips and once you're done getting all the dried glue off you can close the wound with superglue

     I have cousins from a serious wrestling family, massive lads who all went to school on wrestling scholarships. Super glue is what they swear by for closing a gash.
