You are projecting. How stupid.

Hahaha, no. Full regulation would work nicely. I guess you have no idea how tightly the non-crapto part of finances is regulated.
Indeed. Just using AI to generate statements is already satire.
That sounds stupid. Must be some political thing.
Bayer/Monsanto is constantly being sued. Litigation is part of their budget.
Sure. But the suggestion here is that they were specifically inviting it, ostensibly because it would harm competitors.
They are not going to support the idea that "glyphosate causes cancer" for some short-term market advantage.
...the Trump Font. All bold, bigly vertical, with sharp edges.
Indeed. And the font color has to be gold.
Serifs are _only_ for ease of reading if your printing technology is not very good. As soon as you do not have that problem, sans-serif fonts are significantly superior.
It is well known to experts that fonts without serifs are better readable as long as the display tech is good, such as in modern monitors and modern printers. Serifs serve to increase readability when the display tech is not so good, such as in old printing technology.
Once again a Trump admin member outs himself as a blithering idiot. No surprise.
I am mainly commenting on not very smart people regarding "pie in the sky" news as "we will have this soon". If you do not like that, stop reading my posts?
Seems to depend on location. In my home city in Europe, it was 3-4 times a day, even shortly after the war.
But that was before mailmen had to earn $300k in salary and benefits.
Numbers mean nothing once enough inflation is involved. But back in those same days, a mailman could support a family on his salary. Not a luxury life for sure, but enough to rent a place and put food on the table. Women working was still a somewhat new thing.
Yes, this stuff is moving digital as well. At different speeds in different countries.
The big difference is the profit motive in the absence of a truly free market.
The big difference is the requirement to test them to make sure they work. It's expensive, and most candidates fail.
This is potentially the biggest strenth of a vaccine approach. According to the Internet the flu vaccine costs my government an average of $5.43 cents. Individuals can get it for under $100 in most parts of the world where you have to pay the full cost. The reason it's not stupid expensive, being a new drug with novel components most years, is because the procedure for making flu vaccines is well known and has a special type of approval that lets new variations be used without extensive trials.
It's not particularly difficult to determine the protein that a bit of DNA codes for. It's more difficult to figure out which of those are going to be reasonable antigens to target, but you don't really have to. Cancer cells aren't unknown pathogens, they're regular old human cells with mutations.
You don't need to do that either though. Cancer mutations aren't infinitely diverse. "Personalized medicine" sounds like a treatment just for you and you alone, and maybe in a Star Trek future it will be, but in the meantime it means a targeted treatment. You'd identify something that occurs in 10% or 1% or 0.01% of a particular type of cancers, make a treatment, and sell that along with a test for that mutation. We've already got several of those based on more traditional immunotherapy. RNA vaccines just make it a lot easier so we'll have lot more options, including ones that target the 1% and 0.01% instead of just the 10%.
It's worse than that. They insist on not selling any bitcoin. So their ability to repay the loan, issue dividends, whatever, depends entirely on their ability to get more people to give them money.
Infinity: I do not think it means what you think it means.
