I stand by what I said. On a worldwide revenue basis, there are many other manufacturers that have strong incentives to develop a cure. Also, I disagree that "PrEP" would eliminate HIV. It's a prophylactic, not a cure, and

Uhm... Last I checked many pharmaceuticals that compete with Gilead also operate in the HIV space.

General question: I have survived this by working solo for most of my career. Recently though, I'm faced with a barrage of emails and the expectation that they are read or answered within 20 min (!) of receipt. I much prefer answering

In most states and federally, one party consenting to a recording is sufficient, so in those cases it doesn't matter that you, the visitor, give consent. In states with two party consent laws, I think you're required to have signa

I'm another Wikipedian and donor, and I'm pissed about this. Creating an enterprise product with enterprise funding means Wikimedia is directing energy and resources to serve enterprise alone. These APIs were likely demanded by la

And this is how Wikimedia continues metastasizing. Wikipedia is now creating an enterprise version that will "compete" with free Wikipedia (articles words) to cater to enterprise clients. My donations and writings were intended to

In 1933, Roosevelt banned holding gold and silver. In 1934, the Gold Reserve Act allowed the government to set a fixed price for gold and buy out all domestic gold holdings for cash. This remained in effect until 1961 when the laws were rel
