Because drug discovery needs patient trials, and the massive cost of those trails drives scientists into the arms of investors and the for-profit sector.

After the API exodus most of the subs I like were shadows of themselves. This is probably a good move for the Reddit owners to get some revenue for a site rapidly becoming as relevant as Slashdot.

Personally, I'm not concerned with the costs of an EU mandate on Apple for interoperability but that could just be me.

Belt and Road, String of Pearls, massive build-out of anti ship missiles and navy. And it's not enough, at least for the next ~decade. The ocean supply route is to large and too strung out for a navy lesser than the USN to defend.
