Wait a damn minute! Bad time for a how-to YouTube video.

My NFL quarterback is on the sideline during the game watching replays of himself just throwing the ball, did he forget how to throw the ball? - Reddit probably

No one gets good and then just stops reviewing the process. It’s a lot of work to stay game ready. Same thing for doctors and surgeons, we are constantly reviewing and learning so when it’s game time we’re giving you our best.

I paint minis and consider myself pretty good. Not winning awards, but always having people tell me to enter local competitions or try and paint something larger scale as a "display" piece.

I'm ALWAYS watching other people who do tutorials or just show their process. How tf do I know how certain paints or mediums work without either watching people use them, or trial and error? And I'm not wasting 6 hours on a new color scheme only to fuck it up by messing up ratios and then having to spend 8+ hours stripping paint and trying again.

The people that complain about stuff like this don't understand because they don't have a skill and can't relate so are jealous and just resort to hate.

Most mechanics and programmers will look stuff up all the time. Very difficult to keep every different type and part in ones own head.

As a counselor, we're required to continue training. It's very easy in my field to get yourself stuck in a "philosophical hole" where you only use one set of techniques. You become a "hammer in a world of screws"

Wish Drake Maye would learn how to throw the ball..

I mean if your quarterback is Tua there’s a non-zero chance he did forget how to throw the ball…

In the last World Cup I don't remember which country went to PK and they were watching penalties by Mbappe basically with the idea of "see that? if the ball goes there we cannot miss the PK".

Absolutely, and why they are called medical practices.

u/EkobasherX4Z 4h ago

Im not going to a person who's repeatedly struck in the head for medical advice.

Regardless of if it is a standard practice or not it shouldn't be done where your patient can see. You think im getting a refresher they think you need a youtube diy guide for their medical needs.

Especially depending on the surgery/procedure. It could be rare and the Dr has only performed it one time, or possibly never.

I'm sorry you've gone through that! This is within a teaching collage/hospital in my city. I got lucky with my first referral there, but we tried everything that doctor knew to do and now my new doctor is trying some different things. Everyone has been very respectful of my time and has never made me feel rushed during appointments. I hope you find that one day.

I’m better at choking my chicken than anyone on earth. You think I sit around and watch videos of myself shaking hands with the milkman

To be fair, there’s a difference between your QB watching his own footage to find imperfections and improve, and him calling a timeout to Google “what’s a lateral in football?”

Not faulting the doctor for looking something up, but this wasn’t necessarily the best analogy lol.

1

u/Giffmo83 2h ago

That's not what they're doing either. You don't even understand the analogy you're criticizing.

1

u/MrK521 2h ago

Googling something that’s a fairly common procedure for their field? That’s exactly like a football player googling how to perform a common move/play..

How is that not a similar analogy? Far closer to the situation than a football player reviewing their own play footage.

u/Unfit_Watercress 12h ago

Although to be fair a direct comparison would be QBs don't really go on YouTube to look up "how to throw a spiral". I mean

I'm not complaining, we've all used a calculator to add simple stuff "just in case" math ain't mathin'.

u/Logical-Primary-7926 11h ago edited 11h ago

I don't like the quarterback analogy though because they kinda do the same thing over and over, pass or run with similar variables every time. In other words they are super good at what they do because they are constantly repeating it, they are at 99% and always trying to get closer to 100%. That qb watching his own vid is refining an already highly refined skill. But most doctors don't do the same thing over and over like that. They do a bunch of different things, with a lot more variables, rules etc. So unless they are exceptionally specialized, they can never get that good at any one thing. Usually at like 20% hoping for 25. And the scary thing is in football (pro) and many pro sports your pay is highly correlated to how good you are and performance, incentives are aligned pretty well. Unfortunately in healthcare, you can kinda suck at what you do and still make good money, that's how the incentives work unfortunately. And the really scary thing is in healthcare sometimes you actually make more money for being mediocre and there are only penalties for being really egregiously bad.
