To get quickly up to speed on McKinsey, I would recommend to watch an episode of HBO’s Last Week Tonight on the subject: https://youtu.be/AiOUojVd6xQ


To quickly get up to speed you suggest I watch a 26-minute video?

We have different definitions of the word “quickly.”


Watch it at 1.5x speed then. LWT episodes usually include interview clips and other pieces of media to tell the story. I'd rather see that an zero citation op-ed screed that would be a 5-minute read.



Does it? My understanding reading the documentation [0] and according to the press[1] is that it leverages Google and Apple's decentralized frameworks.

It used to be, AFAICR. If that changed, it would be definitely better.


True - however in case of air travel passenger demand it is already forecasted to increase considerably, thus greater efficiency should just make it more sustainable.

I am on the same exact medication. I live in Italy. My 90-day supply is 15 euro (5 euro per box), but the government covers most of it through the healthcare system, so I end up paying 3 euro (1 euro per box).


And you could probably get it even cheaper if you ordered them from a pharmacy in India.


Except they'd probably get stopped by customs.


and might be counterfeit


Anyone who thinks the FDA should be abolished should read the Warning Letter of the Week and reconsider: http://chemjobber.blogspot.com/search/label/warning%20letter...


Our investigator documented that you have an employee food preparation area within your drug manufacturing area with no separation between open manufacturing equipment, cooking utensils, and personal-use items. The practices observed at your facility, which was observed open to the outdoors, increase the likelihood of your drug products becoming contaminated.


Eating in the lab is poor form, it goes against all the social norms a manufacturing chemist has imbibed during their training. Such poor discipline usually points to further trouble, and indeed there are deeper problems:

You provided no evidence that you have performed chemical and microbial testing on each batch you manufactured before making a batch disposition decision.

Aren't most people advocating for the removal of the DEA not the entire FDA?


Lets make it a middle ground, let the fda run its tests, but let people consume the meds they want. FDA charges patients for the benefit of their regulatory overwatch, while those that choose to risk it will find cheaper meds. Everyone happy!


This was last year’s ;)
