A cure for baldness is one of those holy grail drugs like a drug to treat obesity, or a drug to de-age your skin. The profit on this is potentially vast and Im assuming the 10 year patent limit wont apply to it.

This is positive for Google. Spending $23bn on a company of that size was insane. Shareholders are probably relieved.

Arent they planning to have sub 3nm fabs operational before TSMC? I also think the US government and other western governments will help prop it up because its too strategically important to have a non-asia based chip manufacturer.

To me it looks like Apple's first attempt at true portable computing, no monitors no keyboards. A Lisa to the eventual Mac. They should use their media arm to popularise it by making sure are the media they produce has an enhanced vers

With the US re-industrialising, semi-conductors are a strategic priority so Intel will be at the heart of the process. They're going to be a major beneficiary of the process, here and in Europe. They'll be a significant player. Th

Its the best source of investigative journalism in the Uk, generally you'll hear about a story in Private Eye years before it gets to the national press or the BBC. Its a great souce for stories of wrong doing in national and local go

I learnt about the story from Private Eye, they'd been following it for years, there were other sources as well though, but none of them were the national press or the BBC or ITV. This story wasnt glamourous for them and they only swoo

My understanding of the strength of British Libel laws is due to them being used to eliminate dueling which was quite prevelant amongst the officer classes in the British Army. They took two measures. One was to ban the military pension of

Judging by Disneys upcoming roster of films and TV shows I don't think they have learnt. Even after every film they released this year flopped, they're still persuing this failed philosophy. Their last two releases this year, the

They need to rebuild trust with the developer community after the recent debacle, and the CEO seems to be most closely identified with unpopular changes. Whether this will work is debatable, too much trust has been lost. I cant really think
