보통 돈 많은 의사들은 소송걸릴 과에 종사하지 않고요...
소송걸린 필수의료 선생님들이 패가망신 후 빚 갚으려고 미용시장에 뛰어드시는 케이스는 몇 건 봤습니다.
그리고 현타 와 하시더라고요.
소송걸린 필수의료 선생님들이 패가망신 후 빚 갚으려고 미용시장에 뛰어드시는 케이스는 몇 건 봤습니다.
그리고 현타 와 하시더라고요.
그리고 보다 중요한건 '소송'이 걸릴만한 일인가? 인데, 한국만큼 소송걸리고 과실이 아닌 일에 '결과론적'인 이유로 배상판결 나는 나라가 없습니다.... 이 문화는 사법체계가 만들었다고 보는데 사법 종사자분들이 비아냥대면 진짜 웃겨요.
이게 트위터에 판사 빙의하신 변호사가 생각보다 많아서...판례의 무비판적 수용이라고 해야 할지 자포자기(?)라고 해야 할지 모르겠으나 법이 그렇고 판례가 그래요로 일관할 거면 변호사는 왜 있습니까 싶고 그렇지요
궁극적으로는 입법으로 해결할 수밖에 없는 문제라고 해도, 현행 제도에 그런 문제가 있다는 것부터 받아들이지를 못하는 분들도 좀 보이고...
사람들이 법적 용어를 "오해"해서 반박을 하는 게 아님. 정확히 이해하고 있고 그 판단이 잘못되었다고 말하고 있는 것이고. 판례가 그렇게 올바르고 정확하면 지금 의료분쟁조정법 특례적용은 대체 왜 필요하다고 생각하는지.
하도 법쟁이들이 쑤시고다니니까 아동학대 처벌법 개정해주고 학교안전법 개정해주는데 왜 그게 필요한지는 안보이지. 민사 지지부진하다고 형사로 쑤셔서 사람 반병신 만들어놓고 흡혈귀처럼 피빨아가는 변호사들 행태 정말 모르나봐.
지금 법쟁이들이 말하는 과실의 범위가 일반 상식과는 맞지 않고 터무니없는 결과로 나타나서 안그래도 수가문제로 필수과 지원 TO 개빠그라지는데 설상가상으로 법률 문제까지 얹어주니까 복지부동의 상징인 보건복지부랑 국회에서도 이거라도 해줄게 이러고있잖아... 의료만 문제여? 교육도 문제지.

Louisa Nicola shared 10 insights every adult over 40 should listen to if you want to keep your brain sharp as you age, sleep better and lower your Alzheimer's risk.
1) 95% of all Alzheimer's cases are driven by lifestyle, not genetics
1) 95% of all Alzheimer's cases are driven by lifestyle, not genetics
Only 3 to 5% of Alzheimer's patients got it from their genes.
The other 95% got it from how they lived.
Sleep, stress, exercise and what they put in their body decided whether their brain thrived or deteriorated.
You actually have a choice.

• You stop working
• You stop challenging your brain
• You stop providing the stimulus your neurons need to survive
Brain cells become unused and shrink, weaken and eventually shut down.

Dlaczego obrona przeciwlotnicza nie działa?
Niska skuteczność obrony przeciwlotniczej wobec dronów przy użyciu tradycyjnych systemów wynika z kilku nakładających się problemów:
• Zbyt wysokiej prędkości

2/20 pocisków rakietowych i ograniczeń naprowadzania
Rakiety OPL projektowano pod szybkie cele. W przypadku wolnych dronów pojawiają się problemy z minimalną prędkością zbliżenia oraz ograniczeniami głowic naprowadzających (seekerów). W efekcie przechwycenie małego, wolnego celu.

• Ograniczeń artylerii przeciwlotniczej (np. ZU-23)

Este es el Dr. Otto Warburg.
Ganó el Premio Nobel por descubrir cómo se alimentan las células cancerosas.
Luego descubrió una manera de prevenir el cáncer, la diabetes y la obesidad, pero cuando la reveló, el sistema médico lo destruyó.
Aquí están sus 7 hallazgos ocultos que nunca debiste descubrir: 🧵

En 1931, Warburg ganó el Premio Nobel de Medicina por identificar la causa principal del cáncer.
Demostró que las células cancerosas cambian de la energía basada en el oxígeno (respiración) a la fermentación del azúcar incluso en presencia de oxígeno.
Esto se conoce actualmente como el Efecto Warburg.

1. The "Notification" Trap
Situation: You keep Slack and corporate email on your personal phone so you can quietly stay in the loop. You think glancing at messages during dinner is harmless, but your brain never actually powers down.
System: Delete the apps immediately. If the company is not paying your monthly phone bill, they do not get access to your personal hardware.
Why it works: It creates a hard physical barrier between corporate demands and your personal autonomy. You stop reacting to their schedule.

YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS IS WORTH MORE THAN YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER ON THE DARK WEB.
A working SSN sells for around $1.
A working email with active accounts attached sells for $80 to $150.
Most people guard the wrong thing — and leave the door wide open on the one that actually matters. 🧵

1/ A Social Security number is almost worthless to a hacker on its own.
There's a misconception that SSNs are the holy grail of identity theft.
They aren't. They haven't been for years.
There have been so many breaches — Equifax leaked 147 million of them in 2017 alone — that SSNs are basically a commodity now. Bulk sold for pennies on the dollar.
A criminal can buy 10,000 of them for $50.
What they actually need is the thing that connects to all your active accounts.
Your email.

2/ Your email isn't a communication tool. It's a master key.
Stop and think about what your primary email controls right now.
1. Every bank account you've ever opened
2. Every social media platform you use
3. Every shopping site, subscription, and saved card
4. Every cloud storage service holding your photos and documents
5. Every "forgot password" link you'll ever need
6. Your tax filings
7. Your medical portals
8. Your work credentials
Crack the email and the attacker doesn't need to crack anything else.
Every other account on the internet has a "Reset via email" button.
You've built your entire digital life on a single foundation. And you probably haven't checked that foundation in years.

Vor ein paar Tagen kritisierte ich einen Text in der BILD von @ronzheimer & @fpiatov über Merz, vermutete Spahn als Akteur. Es gab viele Reaktionen. Für mich ein Anlass, meine These weiter zu belegen.
Ein längerer Thread 🧵zum Netzwerk Döpfner, Spahn, Ronzheimer: 1/x
Ein längerer Thread 🧵zum Netzwerk Döpfner, Spahn, Ronzheimer: 1/x
Dass Döpfner vorgibt, was BILD & WELT schreiben sollen, ist offensichtlich. Nicht nur in von ihm regelmäßig arrangierten oder gar selbst geschriebenen Gastbeiträgen, sondern auch seit zahlreiche SMS von Döpfner an Reichelt öffentlich geworden sind (“Please Stärke die FDP”). 2/x
![ZEIT: „Kann man noch mehr für die FDP machen? Die sollten 16 Prozent mindestens kriegen. [...] Please Stärke die FDP. Wenn die sehr stark sind können sie in Ampel so autoritär auftreten dass die platzt." Mathias Döpfner](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/HHcxD1aX0AAu2_R.jpg)
Reichelt & Ronzheimer waren ein unzertrennliches Team, beschrieben sich selbst als “Pinky and the Brain”, eng befreundet führten sie die BILD und zogen im Auftrag von Döpfner im Hintergrund die Strippen. Bis heute?

It should be further emphasized that the A and B theories of time are not mutually exclusive. Thus, we do not need to ascribe Ibn Taymiyyah's theological view to the A-theory of time or the B-theory of time. (1/10)
It should be further emphasized that the A and B theories of time are not mutually exclusive. Thus, we do not need to ascribe Ibn Taymiyyah's theological view to the A-theory of time or the B-theory of time. (1/10)
The A-theory of time suggests that time flows successively along a privileged "now" agreed upon by all observers. In contrast, the B-theory of time denies both the succession of time and the privileged "now". (2/10)
But there is a third elusive option implied by the special theory of relativity, namely that time flows successively in the true sense, but without there being any privileged "now" agreed upon by any two observers from each's first-person perspective. (3/10)
Tell me how the effects of NeoCapitalism in the US is any different from Socialism... Just keep calling Artificial Inflation and Centralism, "Natural" while claiming Competitive Capitalism... Another good name for it is NeoCorporatism. - Except that you also have ideology based lobbies maintaining and centralizing powers-AIPAC. If the system were truly competitive and natural, these artificial distortions wouldn't exist — but they do, so the system needs the very distortions it claims to oppose in order to justify its continued dominance.
