>he has been adamant that vaccines are incredibly important for the military and the policy changes have really angered him, specifically because of the damage it does to readiness.
Your friend knows his history; disease has been the leading cause of death in warfare, historically, killing more soldiers than actual combat.
My parents used to be landlords. For years they always bought used appliances for the apartments to save money until a used stove came with a surprise roach infestation. New appliances only after that.
Big medical systems will post their clinical trails quarterly or so. If you have a big medical system near you you can sign up for emails. I imagine universities would have a mailing list too, if they regularly did clinical trials.
Tody (not Toby) is a scheduling app exactly as you describe that you are building and theres no "clutter." You can use it to schedule tasks on any interval, and seasonally. Literally it's exactly what you are describing.
Dismissing it as "built for stuff that gets dirty again, like vacuuming and counters" just means you didn't even look at it. Saying it doesn't support "only nagging you about gutters in the right season" is a lie, it absolutely supports that. I use it to schedule household tasks exactly as you describe, and even personal tasks like applying night cream (every 3 days) and doing my hair treatment (every 60 days).
You can also easily track multiple properties, just set each property is an "area."
I don't know why you can't just say "I'm building it because I want to build something" instead of pretending that the thing you're building doesn't already exist.
>“Virtuous” is not a word I’d associate at all with wanting to become a doctor. Veterinarians are a different matter, though.
For those that don't know, veterinarian education is just as rigorous, time consuming, and expensive as human medical education, yet the median annual wage for practicing veterinarians is $125,510.
Not to be a Debbie downer but Tody already handles home maintenance tracking, and it's already close to perfect IMO. What does your app offer that Tody doesn't? I can't download it because it's iOS only.
>One reason why doctor is more popular is the process for becoming one is high effort but low risk.
Disagree completely that becoming a doctor is low risk. The amount of residency spots is capped and is smaller than the number of people graduating from medical school. Every year thousands of MDs are prevented from going to residency and thus prevented from practicing medicine, even though they graduated from medical school.
>In 2025, 9,541 applicants went unmatched, including 2,409 soon-to-be graduates of United States schools awarding Doctor of Medicine and Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degrees.
Don't listen to this noise; it fucking sucks, it's kinda dangerous, and it's not at all meditative. It's the exact opposite of meditative. My parents made me do it because they certainly didn't want to, because it sucks. I'm so glad I don't have to split firewood ever again.
If you're looking for a meditative exercise try yoga.

>The scientists were not disruptive or disorderly in their conduct, based on the videos posted by MedPage Today, although the fact that they were handing out reprints just before an NIH representative was scheduled to speak might be construed as a form of protest. But it could just as easily be argued that such actions fall under valid scientific dissemination and discussion, the conference’s stated objective.
