Inside the 36 hours that decided John Harbaugh’s fate with the Ravens - The Athletic — What a horrible way to conduct a HR move!
Harbaugh was fired by owner Steve Bisciotti in a phone call while the coach was driving from the team facility to his Baltimore County home. And it was neither a resignation nor a mutual parting. He was relieved of his duties.

What “The Pitt” Taught Me About Being a Doctor | The New Yorker
I’ll say it. Dhruv Khullar is pushing boundaries like Gawande never could. He’s bringing medicine mainstream like Gawande never could. Gawande mainly appealed to medical technocrats.
I binged “The Pitt” over the holidays, during an especially busy stretch in my hospital. Practicing medicine by day and watching medicine by night was surreal. I found myself grappling with the peculiar way that doctors toggle between the quotidian and the extreme. In one room, you joke with a patient about the Mets; in another, you tell someone that their cancer has spread. With time, you start to forget how strange this is. But “The Pitt” did what good art often does: it allowed me to see my reality more clearly.
