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.

Wheelchairs are beautiful, a marvel of technology. They are mech suits, cybernetic enhancements, they are machines that we join with in a nourishing symbiotic relationship. They are not prisons; wheelchairs are liberation. They are freedom, they are a walk in the park, they are the sunlight on my face after years in dark tunnels.

Aphantasia veils the past and the future from the mind’s eye. That can be a gift to philosophers like Derek Parfit and me
