Ten years ago on this day, I registered my current domain name, rk.md, through the country code top-level domain for Moldova. At that time, this site was running WordPress 2.7 using the original TinyMCE visual editor. I had no idea what it would become throughout my medical training.
As a physician, I try to stay up-to-date with the latest research emerging in critical care, anesthesiology, physiology, and medicine overall. It’s also important for me to understand the “landmark papers” that helped pave the evolution of so many of our modern practices. I use Mendeley to digitally centralize my…
Last week I discontinued my Comcast Xfinity service in favor of a new service provided by my apartment complex – Starry Internet. Starry operates on the 38.2 and 38.6 GHz bands are uses wireless technology to connect the provided wi-fi router to a base station which ultimately connects to a…
With the widespread use of routers to distribute internet connections, it’s important to optimize performance and security settings. One simple measure is changing your router’s default domain name system (DNS) recursive resolver – a server which translates domain names (ie, http://rk.md) into IP addresses (ie, 2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334).

Whether you’re a student, physician, nurse, therapist, technician, or anyone else in healthcare, social media is the way of the future. It’s how you’ll connect with your patients, market your services, and disseminate…
In the modern day of social media, having a website that incorporates a responsive design is not an option – it’s essential. Responsive web designs utilize grid systems, flexible images, and the CSS3 @media query to render pages appropriately depending on the device and window size a viewer is using.
RK.MD’s last major design change was roughly halfway through my residency training in February 2015. It’s time for a change! :-) In comparing the “before-and-after” images below, it’s clear that I carried over many elements from my previous layout. I wanted to take advantage of a wider, responsive pane to provide…
