This. When I worked night shift it was my 2am break. I'd go outside especially in the summer and it would be a perfect 70F. Dead quiet. Just super relaxing

I learned back in high school from a friend out of boredom. Now it's just a fidget thing. I don't really go for speed. I just solve it if I'm bored

This is what I came to say but wasn't smart enough to put into words. There's a lot more factors than just being overweight of why a surgery can't be performed. For a while an issue at my hospital was we were one of the few in the area that could do MRIs on larger patients. So bigger hospitals would transfer these patients to us just for an MRI because their MRI machine was too small or couldn't handle the weight.

So if someones heart stops we don't actually shock them. That's a medical show myth. We shock them if they're in something called a lethal rhythm. Which is the heart beating but not actually pumping blood. Very similar to the heart stopping and will eventually lead to the heart giving out. CPR keeps the blood flowing which keeps oxygen moving throughout the body preventing permanent damage. We give medications to restart the heart. They don't really die until these interventions are stopped. Some people also have a pacemaker that detects their heart going into a lethal rhythm and will take over the electrical impulse until their heart goes back to normal. By the definition of the heart stopping this person would technically die and be brought back too. So I see what you're saying but I wanted to add some context that this is pretty complex. Even more so when you bring in people deciding when they don't want these interventions.

So we used a color system that's mostly standardized. Code blue is respiratory or cardiac arrest, code red is fire, code gray is security, etc. we're changing to plain language as that's been shown to be best practice. Everything is still a code though. We've had code trauma, code stemi, code stroke. We also have rapid response for anything that doesn't meet a code criteria but still needs assistance. My favorite was code brown for severe weather alert as that was our slang for cleaning a patient.

We use a lot to define being alive not just the heart. The heart stopping is just an easy way to pronounce someone dead. What you described is called a pause. Not really the same thing. Brain death is also a thing. Any organ transplant allows you to function when otherwise you wouldn't be able to.

The psych movies are great. I'll keep watching as long as they keep making them. It's not really a revival as much as just checking in on the characters. The cast is what made psych so good.

They still understood enough English to pass the test in the first place. I'm assuming with your first hand knowledge you knew that. Or are you just guessing there's a lot of Spanish speaking people that got interpreters? This is about there already being a rule to speak English to get your license. It's not about what language they primarily speak. This is just political theater to make magats happy. You're just stuck on this "I have to be right or my online persona will be ruined". Chill man. You don't even sound smart online

You're being down voted by others. Mostly cause what you said is stupid

You know what also happened in 2016? They revised the definition of "large truck" to include 329 more vehicles. By increasing the sample size you're going to see more accidents. Common cause of accidents is fatigue from drivers working too many hours. That gets better if there's less drivers and they have to know English though right?

You're right. You just need to be able to read, write, and understand instructions. Wait that sounds like knowing the language

You should learn more about your state and elections before you skip them next time for your fake outrage. Block time!
