Is there still a clear path from angularjs 1.x onto angular 9.0? Anyone done it recently? Supporting a large 1.x codebase right now, and would love to start incrementally moving to angular.

I would hope that ultimately, to the authors point #1 - collaboration - that it shows that we can all still come together to fight a common existential threat, or to accomplish a common goal.

You are absolutely right, I failed to note that the increased specificity means you lose the broad spectrum effect. I still think in the cases you describe that they could stand to replace e.g. Vancomycin - BEFORE that fails. The side effec

How about $10-13k in fees / mandatory education classes for a DUI in California? That is pretty punitive AND crippling. The classes are given by for profit companies. Also does nothing to stop the small percentage of hardcore repeat du

This feels like grasping at straws here: How do you handle acute illness? Do you just "push through" and potentially get your coworkers sick, all while cranking out sub-par work? Further, should I be fired or reduce my schedule if

Your argument is a bit contradictory: I can skip one day of work just like I can skip 1 workout ("nothing bad will happen"). However, I am pretty sure there are dire/severe consequences to not maintaining your physical health

I think your points are fair. Sample size for their analysis was about 100 drugs. FDA approves about 25 per year. My main point is that drug development is more expensive than most realize. Beyond R&D, a lot of that cost is in postmarke
