It sounds like a mess to be honest. More production of heroin for 10 years, then 1.5 million refugees because there is no ground water anymore

Good luck with the company, I think what you're doing is very cool and I can see the use case for low bandwidth conversion for educational/whiteboard video in particular. I think you're right about current web tech being able

I think it depends on the company, AstraZeneca CEO already said a while ago they will be manufacturing this at cost or near cost, this is a time for big pharma to give back. Some drug companies like Gilead though have very high markup, paid

I'm curious why the share price slide after the mainstream news. Sure, there have been rumours about the Lancet paper for a few days, maybe these were priced in already - and AstraZeneca has promised to manufacture it at cost or near c

Great post, tempted to read the book. We just don't have the inbuilt evolutionary incentives for optimising for long-term/generational success in today's landscape. We are new to the role of custodians of spaceship Earth and

this is encouraging - hope the side effects at those lower doses don't turn out to be significant. How does the Moderna mRNA vaccine differ from the other mRNA vaccine in Phase 1/2 trials - BioNTech/Pfizer?

Nice, look forward to the web/desktop version! I think the name is fine, people will routinely use the new name in a few months time. Better to change the name now than 10 million users later. The new site looks great, but the pricing

While the clunky UX and low speed of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies definitely remind me of packet radio of early 90s, it was pretty amazing to transmit data wirelessly like that, and now we have 4g (and soon 5g and satellite internet)

I hope it works out for them, at least they are pushing envelope a bit more for a change. The best fit is for Macbooks I think - low power and being able to run iOS software is pretty nice. For real heavy lifting (6k or 8k editing in Resolv
