The obstacles for lab-grown meat are conceptually similar to the “impossible” obstacles people were claiming would prevent ever bringing the electric car to market successfully. The same kind of circumstances are being ignored and the time

Hi, I’m terrible at navigating HN and I can’t remember my login in order to use anything besides my mobile to post here BUT I saw you replied to a comment of mine 2 months ago regarding CFTR modulators for treating cystic fibrosis. You conc

This comment reads like an attempt at poorly executed propaganda. The comparisons drawn are not only inaccurate but borderline nonsense.

CFTR modulators have completely transformed CF treatment for +90% of patients. Gene therapy is a possibility, however, with there being +1000 possible mutations that can lead to CF, it’s not the clear cut candidate that some of the other

Saying homosexuality shouldn’t be legal isn’t an opinion, it’s bigotry. Viewpoints that infringe on a persons rights are not opinions, it’s discrimination. I agree people should be able to speak freely but I also believe in standards. To t

I use the lightning network almost daily and I’ve never done that. I just use a wallet that is lightning capable and that’s it.

I very much appreciate the way you’ve discussed these topics in this thread. You definitely have a tendency to give people the benefit of the doubt and I don’t think that quality is inherently faulty. I do think we have to recognize that so

Thank you for sharing this story! I have regretted not going to that tour for years now. I just didn’t have the money but I wish i had found it because I would have been in those cheap seats screaming for Clifford too!

I never liked the idea until I started using a browser based pomodoro timer and I enabled the desktop notifications, it's been a useful feature. Now, I'm wondering if there are other benefits I've been missing out on since I

I remembered your comment today because we had a doctor call our pharmacy to order +1000 hydroxichloroquine tablets for everybody in his assisted living facility, requiring 12 tablets per patient for prophylactic use. Our Pharmacist in cha

AirBnB failed. I don't even check it out anymore when I travel because a hotel typically costs about the same due to the fees charged by the hosts. I would choose a hotel over AirBnB until the price difference is 15-20% lower in favo

This point you made about imbalance in leg muscles has just illuminated a possible source of my back pain that should have been obvious to me but I just attributed it to age. My left leg is weaker than my right due to knee surgery I had a

I agree with this opinion fully and I find it odd that the OP you replied to doesn’t call for the federal agencies that were conducting unconstitutional surveillance to be held accountable in court?
