She ate her own dogfood. BioViva CEO got injected with her own company's lifespan-extension product. That's confidence in one's own reseearch. Hope it pans out.
California really is full of mini-dictators, isnt it? Lawmakers there want to make it a crime to question school boards. WTF, guys? It's really becoming a prison state, and they want to be the wardens. Need any more reasons to move out of the state?
Gee, small businesses don't want to let Oregon government run their retirement program? Why not? Don't you have confidence in the State? /s
West Nile virus infections are showing up in Eastern Oregon. Climate change will be blamed somehow. What else could it be, right?
And another one goes. Hoffman Construction will leave downtown Portland when their lease expires in 2025. Another vote of no-confidence. And the city is closing public parking spaces, too. Nice tax-base there, Wheeler. Be a shame if something happened to it.
Maui death toll is up to 93 now. And we read that the disaster warning sirens never went off. Geez, they go off when there's no danger. But when there IS danger, nothing.
But here is a real danger: Lahaina residents are concerned that the rebuild will place the town in the hands of affluent outside developers. Here's where reality sets in. That cottage you were living in by the beach might have once been worth $1 million, but it was all "just on paper" and only had that value when there was a Lahaina town nearby. But now the town needs to be rebuilt, and the developers aren't going to pay market value. They're going to insist on par value, and that small square of gravel and ash doesn't really have much intrinsic value, does it? Maybe the community can get together and create some organization that developers will need to negotiate with, instead of just one household individually, where they have no leverage. Just a thought...
Tech giants are threatening to leave the UK. Can't blame them this time. The UK wants all encryption hobbled. They want a key to a backdoor so they can snoop on their citizens. And with the way they've been behaving lately, I wouldn't give an inch to the government. What a bleak dystopian nightmare the UK has become. It's the Democrat FBI/DOJ/CIA in miniature, although still worse in some ways.
