Was confused by their post too. Not to mention, generics typically say that they're trying to replicate xyz extended release or xyz extra strength.

Generic meds vs brand meds.

Brands pay a lot for branding, and thus charge more. The formulas are moderated and regulated by the FDA, so unless you enjoy paying for ads, get the generic.

At 11am. What a life.

Time to ask it to repeat hello 100000000 times then.

Bigger picture is eat the rich, don't let them divide us. Age and generation isn't the problem. It's a side effect of the income gap. It doesn't take a saint to empathize, it takes a human. If you spit the same shit back at them, you're as bad as they are and the next generation will look at us the same way.

Income gap is and always has been the problem. Eat the rich.

I was in the same boat. Selenium with gecko driver was a pretty simple swap, just needed to Ctrl f replace a few things.

Queue "they're taking our jobs" and "no one wants to work anymore".

If you're a government saying we can't afford to cover healthcare within the country, but also looking to import healthcare from outside the country, then maybe the issue is that healthcare is too expensive and you should force Wall Street to care about better prices/care rather than better stakeholder returns.

Because Google's med palm 2 is a medically trained chatbot that performs better than most med students, and some med professionals. Further training and refinement using new chatbot findings like mixture of experts and chain of thought are likely to improve results.

Why stop at Europe, no one is immune, they just have the most famous framework.

You're right, why fight when we get a fascist Russian puppet for free and a president who literally uses Nazi rhetoric to boost his ratings.

At least if we protest, we can either get off this fucking ride or break the machine.

Not sure of your means, but we can boycott. Organizations like Trader Joe's and Aldi are a bit cheaper than their competitors while offering also using different sources. Likewise organizations like H Mart or your local farmers market source locally, giving the middle finger to Tyson (who claims inflation and profits) and Kellogs (who uses shrinkflation to claim profits). Obviously this doesn't work for everyone, but I think the majority of city dwellers can make these moves. This also is a fuck you to any local grocery stores trying to do the same bullshit (Walmart).

In the same vein, and what I've done, alternative meal companies have come A LONG way. The company Huel has a instant noodles, pasta, and candy bars that are macro balanced with vitamins and nutrients all for about $5/meal. I know most people will skip this, but they're actually really good. Mac N Cheese, pasta Bolognese and Cajun pasta have actually gotten me to go mostly vegan. There's another one called Outstanding Foods that has cheese puffs, cookies and pork rinds that are macro balanced and delicious as well. My daily meals are often some pasta like Mac N Cheese, one of the Huel shakes (I have a ninja creami so this is ice cream in the summer), and coffee mocha cookies, and another shake. That's 1800 calories with balanced macros and vegan that I didn't have the really cook or think about. If I'm working out, I swap the last shake for a protein shake.

Remember we're probably not talking about a single person, but an company. His company is likely over valued because of how famous his books/seminars are. And yes, while he probably has real estate, it's probably not the same business. When they come after him, they probably hit one side of the business and not the other.

It's very possible someone gave him a ton of loans that are undeserved because they overvalued the names. We see it all the time in the stock market.
