You mean - on a permanent basis? Everyone knows that poor availability of GLP-1 medicines in the past were because of difficulties scaling production to match demand that unexpectedly proved insane. No one was ever intentionally withholding

Saxenda is a previous generation drug with efficiency below that of lifestyle changes/diets... Not at all what's being discussed here.

True (to some extent, there's always the other side), but now there's no longer a shortage. The drugs are there in the pharmacies. That's why compounding is outlawed.

$350 a month is already almost as much as we pay in EU. It won't get any cheaper than that. Compounded GLP-1 drugs were an intellectual property theft - and not against some evil megacorporation, but impacting a company that actually a

Well, the manufacturing capacity isn't difficult to build out having plenty of capital, land, and energy - which U.S. all had aplenty, and a Republican administration can rather easily cut corners in environmental reviews and other typ

Empty talk. Manufacturing never left. It grew slower than other economic sectors mostly because of pricing, manufactured goods are just a lot cheaper than they used to be. Manufacturing jobs are gone, and they will never return. Moreover, p

Because tech jobs are one of the few career lines that create a realistic path to passive income => becoming an "evil of capitalism". In fact, life outcomes that fall between "failure and poverty in old age" and &quot

Good half of "wellness" or "nutra" scam "supplements" revolve around promise of losing weight. After all, losing weight is people's biggest health goal in itself plus doing so fixes many other health issue

It's quite natural that if economy contracts, prices go down. It happens (almost) all of the time - the only big exception was 1973-1979 because of Arab oil embargo - only time when GDP was falling AND prices rising faster than usual.

Not sure what they are planning to gain this way. Just alienate Trump administration and become a subject of government action? That's near certain to happen when you fall out of line.

Power never went out in a country completely. At the lowest point consumption was ~40% of normal for that time of day. Ukraine went through many black starts in the first winter of Russian strikes against energy. I guess they built a skill

Well, defining any social order in this manner will result in the same conclusion. Just as with democracy, the power is never in the hands of people. Defining it negatively though - as a social order in which the private ownership of means

The most numerous kind of people there, are nontechnical people who think they are technical, and nonbusiness people thinking they are business. Sometimes both at same time. Clowns. When you do custom development, these make up the majority

I agree. No matter how you call it, society without private ownership of means of production - without legalised ability to build capital and gain economic power by extracting value from productive assets for private gain - cannot work exce

Well, Communism was seen by countries we call "Communist" (GDR, Soviet Union, Red China in Mao era, and the like), as something potentially possible in some distant future, it was their endgame (some claim, only notionally so, wit

Time and again we see how half-assed dictatorships don't work. Soviet Union and the Eastern Block failed because they tried to be nice. By doing so, they achieved the worst result possible: cynical, profoundly disillusioned society and

Highly unlikely because the rich are now just running away from UK pulling all their cash with them; it's likely that leftists will get what they want - reduction of wealth inequality - just not in the way that pleases them: with the c

Most of the drones, sure, but they also have a low-level (a few thousands per month) production of those with almost no China-origin components - only Ukrainian or Western made. They are still pricier than all-China though, at almost $1000
803.
by anovikov 2y ago
In reality, drones only matter because neither Ukraine nor Russia has a viable air force able to operate in SAM-rich environment, and they both ran out of artillery shells having to make do with the small amounts they can produce/buy.

by anovikov 2y ago
Ukrainians eventually overcame it and now produce entirely China-free drones apart from IR lenses (when they are needed), and magnets. If that was possible surely bigger countries can do it easily.

These days it does not matter anymore if something is legal or not. Which may be bad news for the tech industry actually, because it's all about valuations, and valuations suffer if property rights are not guaranteed.

200 kill sats is laughably little. The Earth is rather big and they will be uniformly distributed, putting closest sat at almost 1000km from target while whole boost phase of a solid fueled ICBM is 350-400km. So there's no chance it co

Well, problem with nuclear power is timelines. Before any new nuclear can be built, renewables will fill all energy needs. So it will be wasted money. Gotta wait.

You gotta get a downconverter and a bias-tee to power it (or use the bias-tee built in the RTL-SDR if the downconverter is 4.5 volt - most aren't though). Then you can access high-freq. 10+ GHz must be a satellite right? There's n

Yes right, i mean manufacturing value added, there is no way to return manufacturing jobs en masse. Macrotrends is a spam site that is very well-indexed. I have seen it post blatantly, unbelievably false stats all the time that i have devel
