I think it's less about the cash than the PTO. People plan ahead for time off during the holidays. If instead you have to spend the holidays frantically looking for employment, then you're massively stressed during what should be

Overturned on appeal but MS was fined heavily over the years using the same justification. The one I remember off the top of my head was the WMP fine[0]. If you have an OS, everything within should be open for competition and courts have ge

The Hep C cure was 100k USD when it released in 2014. 10 years later, it’s 25k USD max before insurance. The price you see now will likely shrink in the coming years. Pretty good opportunity for an analysis on CRISPR pricing if you have a w

That only seems useful if said bioweapon can’t be determined by anyone else to have been DNA-based. Otherwise, why not just use a conventional bioweapon (lol) and target it more precisely? Using this hypothetical DNA targeting technology do
