The real reason it takes time is because we try not to harm people even in experimental drug testing. It would be much faster to simply toss shit at the wall and see what sticks, but that's not exactly humane. So we have to find analogues that hopefully mimick humans will enough, but they don't really work well. So it takes lots of time to build up enough evidence with those preliminary tests to convince the safety board to allow human trials. Then trials have to slowly scale up to limit the amount of people harmed by unforseen effects with a lot of time between as the safety board reviews the previous results before allowing the next test.

It's all good to do, but it does make development frustratingly slow sometimes. Especially when people are actively dying waiting for the new drugs.

I'm amazed to hear people actually used word pad. It's such a horrible editor with extremely poor file type support.

Removing it has to be cheaper than installing it. Bleed Abbott if he wants to play this game.

Less than you think. These people do not hold punches with family. They might even be harsher on their own family since they "should know better" and "weren't raised like that".

On the LGBTQ front, families have done more damage to them than any random individuals ever did. These people will not hold back at calling their children whores for getting pregnant even by rape.

Linus is surrounded by people who can call him on his bullshit. Luke is very aware of the shit Linus steps in and lets him know. Linus just kinda sucks at publicly admitting it, at least not without getting his own jab in. Hence taking over the "Trust Me Bro" joke.

Linus takes all criticism on LMG as a personal attack regardless of his involvement. Hopefully, once Tarren steps in, he'll be able to wrangle Linus and just let LMG handle the public relations side.

It's because Linus still has startup brain. He was squeezing blood from the stone for the first few years and his success then makes him believe that he needs to maintain that same mentality now.

Fortunately, he's also realized that he doesn't like running a large company and he's hired a CEO. Unfortunately, said CEO is still stuck in his previous role and won't actually be starting full-time for another few months. So now the company gets to sit in an awkward limbo of Linus checking out but Tarren not being ready to take over.

Once he is able to be a real CEO of LMG, I'm willing to bet things will start to dramatically change. Tarren has been running businesses as businesses for a while now and thus should know how to shape the company. He'll be able to adjust the goals and fix the spends to align with those goals. Since the company is privately owned, as long as Linus doesn't step on the process, it should go pretty well.

Yep. They billed themselves and chill and employee focused. Hence the "relaxed" dress codes and atmosphere. Turns out, they're just another corporate pig hiding behind some cheap makeup.

I would argue it's more a problem of lax corporate safety. That's a ton of weight and those shelves should have been overbuilt as hell. They should have also been regularly checked for sagging and wear.

If you're good with mega corps like Zoom, then I'd say Google Meet has been perfectly fine for us as a company. There's also Microsoft Teams.

If you're looking for something to use on a personal level and not corporate, then you've got pick of the litter.

This is not about weapons. That's a ludicrous viewpoint. We've been able to create fusion weapons for decades now by starting them with fission. There's no way to build a pocket fusion device so it would only ever be a giant nuke, which we can already build.

No, this is really real research. Oil and coal barons know the end is coming for oil and coal, that's why they're the primary card holders in renewables too. They don't actually need to burn fossil fuels, it's just more profitable to do so right now. Once it's not, they'll just turn to the next most profitable thing they've got their fingers in.

I would say the expanding foam would still be preferred. Just don't go crazy with it. Then before it's fully cured, cut it back flush. Wait for it to dry then caulk to cover/seal.

That was a documentary, not fantasy.
