Is Bitcoin a Bubble? 2
Hey everyone, it’s Finance Fridays again. Today I’m going to talk about Bitcoin (again). You may have seen it setting new records in the news lately, so today I wanted to ponder “Is Bitcoin a Bubble?” Sensei’s note: I’m writing this article on 11/30/2017 to be posted tomorrow December 1, 2017.

I’m actually working on Thanksgiving so I won’t be having Thanksgiving Dinner with my family. With the way my schedule works, I always work on Thursdays unless I happen to take that particular 8 day shift off. However, because we all work on Thursdays, we have double staff, […]

Resiliency
Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays again. This is going to be a short post on the culture of Medicine, especially the concept of “resilience“. So every year, a fresh group of bright-eyed 1st year medical students start medical school. The vast majority of them start the year with ambitions to be the best doctor they can be and for most of them I think there is a feeling of “I can’t believe I’m going to […]
