I love it as a reader when travelling, and books too long to print. I do take notes when i bring it to conferences, but most of all just to keep engaged, though to keep all notes at one place is practical.

Though when at home/office nothing beats paper and the possibility to visually have multiple pages side by side. Any research article I want to work through I print out, and I buy more paper books now than before I bought the remarkable. Paradoxically, the remarkable helped me realize the incredible value of paper.

:) Thanks! Been looking into learning rust recently, so will keep that in mind if I get it off the ground.

Really cool. Would this run on the remarkable paper pro too?

Versioned datasets for machine learning.

For the point of arguing with strangers, yes, I agree that neither PubMed nor any other entities will provide you with what you need. I don't think that it is possible to acquire an understanding of an issue without some domain knowledge, at least on how to get the data.

But to gain a deeper understanding of the flaws of any country's health (or any) system, there is no way around that except by comparing it with data from other countries. And that might be hard, which is why professionals spend a lot of time on it.

I like it a lot, as I mentioned intellectually rewarding and I feel like most of what I learned at med school is useful. I also quite enjoy the occasional increase in adrenaline when at trauma reception or stroke CT evaluation. Also nice to both be able to work in peace and collaborate with clinicians. And personally I also enjoy keeping up to date on research which is evolving quite rapidly. The negative aspect is mostly what is common to most medical specialities and due to understaffing.

I trained as a doctor, then family practice for a few years, but since the middle of my studies, I realised my main passion was the more technical aspects. I did a bachelor's in electronics engineering while working 50% as a doctor the first two years, and with the last year dedicated only to studying. I realised a bachelor's would not be enough to get the engineering jobs I desired, so I went back to medicine and started training as a radiologist. There they agreed to fund me doing PhD research 50% of my time, and I am now doing a PhD using AI diagnosing dementia from MRI scans--basically my dream job, while working 50% as a radiologist which also is fun and intellectually very rewarding.
