Хитрые бактерии и антибиотики

habr.com/ru/articles/828834

И рынок стал важнее разработки, затраты на RnD обычно несколько миллиардов долларов — а на маркетинг могут быть в 2-3 раза выше. Плюс с антибиотиками есть куча проблем. Во-первых, от них пациенты выздоравливают. Это очень плохо, потому что не получается продавать годами.

OPenn: LJS 51 Collection of alphabets and encoded correspondence

openn.library.upenn.edu/Data/0001/html/ljs51.html

Collection of encrypted correspondence between the compiler and various correspondents, in approximately 150 alphabets, accompanied by transcriptions of the letters in Arabic. The compiler cites Shihāb al-Dīn al-Jindī al-ʻAlāʼī, Burhān al-Dīn al-Qudsī, and Taqī al-Dīn Muḥammad ibn Jaʻfar al-Ḥusaynī as authorities for some of the alphabets. The manuscript is incomplete, lacking its beginning and end. Occasional marginal notes. Some worm damage in margins.

Documents Are the Wrong Metaphor

screensresearchhypertext.com?stackedPages=/Documents-Are-the-Wrong-Metaphor

So the author says. They say, the right metaphor is songs! This is non-sensical, documents are the right metaphor, and we should do our best to preserve it.

The author of the website claims to know a bit about hypertext, and they do, but look at this URL! How to fix it? UPD. From the computer I managed to close the extra tabs on the page which were not visible on the phone and fix the URL.
