A couple of little mobbs of birds told me that you're a fan of bloggy scientific posts such as the medical Motivational Mondays. 😉
I did actually have one question about something I came across in the Discord, but can't seem to find now. Is there a limit to how many times one can be curated over the course of a week? For example, writing daily about events that happen to a patient while hospitalized.
There's no hard rules, but generally we see it as abusing the system if, for example, large, well researched blogs are being done frequently. This is generally a sign of AI generation, plagiarism or something else, so more investigation is needed and cautious voting.
I think if they are quick blogs about progress we may give them a small vote, or pick and choose - short-form is quite a new phenomenon in our community, I think. More discussion needed!
Understood, I see what you mean.
My consecutive posts would actually kind of reflect what I do in the hospital: write about the patient's daily progress, and then reflect on it with specific teaching about topics, often as we go along through the day. We sometimes teach our medical students (and ourselves) this way. I'll resume those "Chronicles of an Inner City Hospital Resident Doctor" pretty soon, and I'm expecting some will be that way because of evolving situations. AI isn't sophisticated enough to make up these types of stories yet, haha.
It's essentially become a principle for me. If I'm not bringing or getting something valuable (whether it be educational, entertainment, etc.), then there's no point in carrying on. Working as a training physician is stressful enough without the added crap from social media!
