“With CalRx, we are getting at the underlying cost, which is the true sustainable solution to high-cost pharmaceuticals,” Newsom wrote in a message explaining why he vetoed the bill on Saturday. “With co-pay caps however, the long-term costs are still passed down to consumers through higher premiums from health plans.”
So there's a state backed insulin manufacturer he thinks will drive down prices. He thinks if you were to force insurance companies to bring down the price of insulin then they'd push the price back into consumers through higher costs elsewhere.
OP, they look through telescopes and figure out how far away the stars are. They record it in a little diagram on a computer and eventually they get a good idea of what it looks like from the outside.
Wait we can know what it looks like though. They can plot the distance and position of the stars and then they will have a model of its shape as a point cloud.
Is it absolutely a good ol boys club. Like, oh my God it's unbelievable. To be fair, most people aren't like that but they have a shit ton of young, talented, neurotic, male engineers who just graduated college and have been told they are super geniuses. These are not the creme de la creme when it comes to emotional intelligence.
The Israeli Right sees the inevitable future; Israel will lose its Jewish majority in the next generation or two. Bibi said "Arabs breed like dogs".
This is it. They may not get another opportunity to keep the Arabs down. They feel they need to crush and occupy Palestine because the alternative, in their eyes, is Arabs taking control of Israel and the Palestinians winning.
I don't know if Google threatening the DDG employee would change the situation. Wired published it. If their writer came back and said "I was threatened by a megacorp for my excellent work. Please take it down and tell everyone I was wrong" wired, at very least, would not issue that statement.
"oopsie I accidentally wrote the hit piece of the year about my competitor and it turned out to be a lie! Tee hee silly me what even is journalistic integrity?"
This article was a smoking gun. Google is scummy but this was shocking. And it was a fucking lie? I actually hope Google goes after wired. That's not justice against Google that's malpractice.
Unfortunately I don't think this is mostly religion. A lot of people are stupid. Sincere question, when was the last time you talked to a normie?
I chatted with my hairdresser yesterday. She didn't know:
what a DMZ is.
who SBF or Elizabeth Holmes are.
that there is an anti trust case against Google.
the word "query" as in "search query".
For Halloween my girlfriend and I are going as SBF and Elizabeth Holmes. She commented that "no one outside [my] little circle is going to know who those people are." I started to disagree but, in a way, she's right.
Don't get me wrong, she's wonderful and hilarious and chill af. She's just a bit dumb. And that's okay but it's true.
It needs approval from Congress but they got that approval 70 years ago and it's never expired.
Israel is the #1 recipient of foreign aid from the US. (Before the Ukraine war). Egypt, by treaty, received 10% of what Israel gets. That makes Egypt the #2 recipient of foreign aid.
The next country we voluntarily give foreign aid to receives less than 10% of what we give Israel.
Do you think Microsoft removed features from their language because they hate Linux? Or do you think maybe the way syscalls and the filesystem work are different in Linux and that makes hot reload a bit of an engineering problem?
We can never know, but I'm guessing Microsoft didn't port their language to Linux just to shoot themselves in the foot. On the other hand, it is Microsoft.
If I were Mossad I'd be ashamed right now. How the fuck did they miss this? The FBI missed 12(?) 9/11 hijackers and it was the fuck up of a lifetime. Mossad missed an ENTIRE MILITARY OPERATION. Wtf?
I punch a dog. The dog bites me. I put the dog in a cage. The dog scratches me. I beat the ever loving shit out of the dog. The dog bites me. I torture the dog and then go to the UN and cry that the dog bit me. The UN looks the other way as I attempt to beat the dog to death.
There is zero historical evidence outside the Bible for the enslavement of Jewish people. The Egyptian wrote down everything and there are no mentions of Jewish slaves and certainly no mention of locust, frogs, the Nile turning to blood, or the mass slaughter of children in the middle of the night.
You can't say that, it's "impolite", but it's true.
I'm not going to disagree with you, but I am going to push back on your theatrics. You obviously know that nations exert sovereignty over land. You imply as much by your criticism of private property.
You use a lot of quotes to imply these ideas are foreign and odd to you. Even if you disagree, at least have the courtesy of intellectual honesty.
"Spike"
I mean, yeah no shit.
