You should drive if the train will make you late. Can you pay me more so I can afford a car? No, you come in late and expect a bonus?!

Maybe if the trains were like in Japan where if they're even a minute late you get a tearful, anxious apology from the CEO of the train company then trains being late not being a valid excuse might be slightly more understandable

Accelerando shows what the right thinks the singularity will be, Glasshouse did fully automated gay space communism and brain worms before it was cool. If you want to know what my dream society looks like, it's that first section of the book loving the anime robot, having gay sex, and doing drugs with nanomachines.

One of the only things that capitalism hasn't taken from the joy of our own humanity is raising our own healthy children. These loving "overpopulation" people want to like sterilize the planet rather than promote adoption and education. The malthusians want the poor, the 3rd world non whites to starve to death while they sit in the first world and complain about gridliock in their commute to work a useless desk job. They should be murdered willingly. Manslaughtered idk what to call that, euthanized. hypocrisy if a single one of them has a family

I love my kid and all but I can't deny that there are way too many loving people and that the universe would be much better off without humans. We and our solitary child will sign up for the voluntary extinction movement about ten seconds after the religious weirdos who have twelve kids do, though. Until then I'm not going to feel bad about our family being at 50% replacement level.

Crazycryodude posted:I very strongly hope it's got nothing to do with the yellow vests because if they DID burn it down they just killed the movement. But it's almost definitely nothing to do with them, more likely related to the renovation work that was going on. It's not but it's being framed by right wingers as the "decline of Western Civilization" or something.

The trains here are often late and there's no seppuku being committed by executives. The train I was on just a few minutes ago arrived 25 minutes late. That won't get a mention in the paper let alone a press conference by the staff. Fake edit: gently caress me, they *literally right now* announced a delay on the train I've gotten onto

so basically even without the insulin edit, this is saying the only thing that hasn't gotten insanely expensive are things that are mining your data and selling it to advertisers, subsidizing what would be the true cost of the good by stealing from your privacy

There's no generic for insulin I take it? How hard is it to make synthetically? I'd also be curious as to when the IP on Humalog runs out. It would seem that more than one company would be able to make this...?

How hard is it to make synthetically? since 1979, synthetic insulin has been produced by genetically modified e. coli. as biological tricks go, it's as close to a solved, trivial problem as can be. here's the original paper, even. https://www.pnas.org/content/pnas/76/1/106.full.pdf

actionjackson posted:There's no generic for insulin I take it? How hard is it to make synthetically? It's super easy and cheap to make but the market was cornered allowing for prices to be jacked up. There are few than 1.5 million type 1 diabetics and entering the market to introduce competition would mean tanking the price and making it a shaky investment for the newcomer. There are a ton of drugs out there like this and once a manufacturer is able to corner the market they jack the costs up like crazy. The humalog patent expired in 2015 and the prices have continued to skyrocket.

A few years ago I was big on the overpopulation problem, I did not endorse eugenics but i took a "we need to educate people on the consequences and costs of children" approach. It really is overconsumption, not overpopulation. Africa's population is going to sky-rocket this century but lol at the idea it will leave a worse impact than a fraction of the western world, who are currently mourning a burning building whilst living in a paradigm of mass starvation and exploitation.
