Dr. Ken Catchpole is a human factors engineer giving the opening talk of #CCAS24 on the topic of how high functioning teams don't happen by chance. #PedsAnes24

It's crazy when you think about it. Arizona is one of the only states that doesn't change their clocks for Daylight Saving. But today, they turned their clocks back to the 1800s.

Looking at what goes well and how to make ‘nothing happen’ in a paediatric intensive care unit.

The Israeli government needs to open more land routes for food and medicine today. It needs to stop killing civilians and aid workers today. It needs to start the long journey to peace…

This push by The New York Times for widespread use of ECPR is a bad idea.
-There's no strong data supporting its use and should be viewed as largely experimental
-We still don't know who to sink this *very expensive* resource into and who not to
-Invariably, as public demand goes up,…

It’s a free country, and NBC/MSNBC can hire who they want, but why would they hire someone who played a part in trying to overthrow an American election? Someone who made a career out of lying for Donald Trump? Why?

Dear The New York Times,

Good morning. How are you? I’m just wondering why in today’s paper there’s no mention of Mike Pence, Donald Trump’s former veep (as you know), saying he won’t endorse Trump. Not on the front page. Not inside. Seems kinda big. Are you okay?

Hindsight bias from the Iliad.

Outcome knowledge causes us to judge events as more preventable and hold people more accountable than they should be.

This is a problem for QI *processes* which, by definition, are about turning inputs into outputs, and *procedures* which specify how to do this. It's also why RCAs fail.

According to the NYT, though Biden is leading his nearest opponent by +76% in the Michigan primary he “faced opposition.” Meanwhile, Trump is leading by +35% but “easily beat” his opponent.
