Yes, $15k would not be the same for a biopharma company, but they explicitly do not have the same goals of a biopharma company, nor are they a biopharma company, nor do their people come biopharma, nor are their users biopharma companies. B

Not necessarily true, just look at soccer in China in the past two weeks. Just buy all the Lebron's until you figure out the template and can mass produce it.

I think it's amusing that your backend is still human, because really you're just shifting the task onto others, not necessarily solving it. We've "solved it" per se on Experiment by getting good at training other s
