@ecommerceshares No
Just opportunist

@wallstengine Yes
Also FOMC seems more sensitive to employment than inflation at this time
Seems appropriate

@nilikm @andrewaperez @TheHubCanada @liberal_party @NDP @CPC_HQ Since Trudeau in power :
Canadian productivity has been declining when compared to US
Civil service increased over 40%

@Rory_Johnston Comments on the proposed technology :

It cost energy to overcome this inefficiency
Always

@anish_koka @AngryCardio @helloanhta @PeterKolchinsky US Pharma market competes for innovation
For instance ACE inhibitors starting in mid 80s with perhaps Captopril to now (select your favorite) the trend is amazing
Commodity or near-commodity markets compete on prices

@CGrantWSJ @daviesbj He most likely feel unwell about this
One day he will be 17 and in a bad snow storm at night he will get in a car accident (true story)
You are happy that he is ok but the car not so much
My view: cut some slack create some delay, have conversations

@PeterKolchinsky @Frank_S_David “Investing early in a medicine that works” How do I know that ahead of FDA decision?
I cannot
So I have to discount the odds
This discount makes raising $ to finance R&D very hard
One always need more because of unforeseen challenges

@TOWiU2 It will take some time to make aware the payors of the Econ advantage of gene therapy

@PDRennert @JoeP450 @WuXiBiologics What is going on in China, broadly, is disinflationary for manufactured goods

@ianbremmer @craigss @EyeOn_AI Certainly
Yet every year quite unfortunately death shows up
So safety is with shades of gray, no absolute

@binarypharmer 6th grade

Hard lesson

That kind of situation presented with my son at about that age, it never occurred afterwards

@EricTopol Weight loss benefits outweigh the muscle loss

@CloisterRes Hard to create knowledge without actual new data and analysis

Without new data all that is possible is reassembly of old perspectives. That is precisely what she did

Soft Plagiarism is the reassembly of old thoughts

@BigBullCap Very sorry to read this news

[Pierre Bedard @PRB51]

@Jonheathcote @PhilWalkable @ojblanchard1 No

I love when they drop by for the weekend
They would not if we did not have additional room available

@ereguly @globeandmail Agree
Oil production is NOT the problem, il is the lack of alternatives

Oil demand is inelastic
Price won’t hinder demand

EV car are very expensive with 2 yrs wait, charging station are largely absent

No carbon tax will not change any of that

[Pierre Bedard @PRB51]

@JamesEKrause Is the tox mechanism known?
I get the accumulation in fat

[Pierre Bedard @PRB51]
