According to the Ken Burns cancer documentary on Netflix the main reason why immunotherapy was so slow to get momentum was there was very little intellectual or academic effort involved. Science isn't really the hero here. Science is just introducing the immune system (which was not by any account created by science) to the cancer.
The elites decided it didn't help their careers much so they were more than happy to throw the cancer funding into the furnace, annually. Business (*yes* BIG PHARMA) is saving the lives here.
You seem to suggest stopping profits is more important than saving lives.
Given the drooling over euthanasia and eugenics on slashdot I am inclined to believe your goal is really just wanting as many people to die as possible and marxism is just a stretch of a way to get there.
As I was getting in the elevator this morning, I noticed Plato was headed a few flights above me so I asked him, "Do we tend to talk about the things we do?"
He answered: "No one wants what he already has."
There's a lot of stuff he doesn't get (love, Jesus, etc), but I thought he nailed that one.
Ugh... tried finding C++ work 7 years ago. Was hard to even get an interview (was 29 at the time). A lot of C++ devs chasing very few C++ jobs. When I switched to C# (which is not in the top 3 programming lanuages according to TIOBE, PYPL, etc) and got lots of people waving money at me.
All that to say sometimes older tech means you are competing against A LOT of people for only a few positions. That being said I'm thinking about learning mainframe stuff. It doesn't really show on Google Trends, but I saw a bunch of hits on indeed.com.
>> "The Tea Party regularly encourages people to find every way they can - legal or not - to reduce their taxes."
Where has anyone even made the claim the tea party is encouraging illegal tax cheating?
In any case the IRS requested information about what the tea party orgs were mailing, claiming, and even their prayer information. No such information was requested for MediaMatters, DailyKos, MoveOn, etc.
It's a good thing people on slashdot keep repeating the phrase "Raegan's failed Star Wars" because otherwise people might see the connection to the existing ABM ABL systems we have in place and remember how the tyranny of the USSR collapsed shortly after Raegan's administration and remember how many administrations and parties continued Raegan's foreign policy and think *gasp!* it was an amazing success. Perhaps you think Carter's military campaigns were successful or the stealth program (which started under Raegan) had no effect on Desert Storm?
>> You need to look up what is actually described in the constitution
What makes it a constitutional crisis is the Constitution does NOT say anything about it (in this case the consequences of the president not enforcing the law), but it involves or or more branches of the government completely overriding another branch -potentially in all circumstances. That is exactly what selective enforcement is. It basically prevents the government from doing what it is supposed to be doing.
Why didn't the IRS grant tax exempt status to the Sierra Club and all the pro-government expansion groups no questions asked? This was all over all forms of media and yet you claim I'm in a conspiracy theory somewhere? The NSA was totally spying on people wrongly. You think Eric Snowden is on an extended vacation in Russia or what exactly? And why do you think Susan Rice has changed her answers so much about whether she authorized the unmasking of Hillary's political opponents?
I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you just aren't following any of this.

Came out a year or so go the resvitrol studies were largely fabricated. Not sure if this informed your claim above.
Usually talking about something is a pretty good indicator you aren't doing it.
At slashdot it sometimes means it isn't even crossing your mind.
Uh ... maybe you're thinking of the Puritans in New Orleans or something like that?
Btw was Bruce Cambell in the movie where you learned about this?
Ah, touche !
Interesting that you feel the government is qualified to be telling ordinary people what is important.
Exactly! The guy gets 2 SCOOPS OF ICECREAM for dessert! We are doomed!
Trump overthrew conventional thinking, but it has to happen every generation.
This kind of sounds like the "Hillary has a 100% chance of winning" headline the media was enforcing itself to believe.
As a Republican, I would like to ask that you continue to look at the odds this way.
If a phishing email is sent to help one candidate, the other guy (or girl here) should automatically win.
This will COMPLETELY stop foreign governments from being able to manipulate the process!
When the IRS misleads people about taxes that is SUPER COOL in addition to be completely protected from all liability (at least in the US).
I hope the Australians don't interfere with our beloved friends in the IRS.
I cringed when Trump became president because, what if the government has to start doing what they say? They can't be burdened with that !
Btw, when you ask someone you are going into a business transaction with what your legal rights are, that is ALSO super cool.
So let's just have the government going around threatening everybody then.
Having trouble learning a programming language? Have the government threaten Oracle or Microsoft.
Drop your iphone? Have the government start threatening the companies that make the stuff you want.
My daughter slept in too late. Sure, send the cops to her bedroom.
Problem solved!
Encouraging. Sounds like you are laying it out straight.
What pushed you into management? How did that discussion happen? Was it with a manager or with yourself?
Yay !!

I see a lot of upsides to that strategy, but I wonder how long it can play out.
I see a lot of posts about how people are still programming in their 40's and 50's, but not a lot about how people are getting hired at those ages.
What tech stack / age / geographic region are you in?
If you have clients, do you work for them? If so, do they practice age discrimination?
Not rhetorical questions. I really don't know.
I think age discrimination is real, but this doesn't show much IMHO.
There are valid and invalid reasons to hire people in different ranges and this approach doesn't sufficiently isolate them.
People cling to anecdotes when there is a broad sense the books are cooked.
Is this a reference to Diotima? I was hoping people weren't reading the Symposium anymore.
If you want to distribute a new life-saving medical breakthrough it has to go through (on average) 20 years of trials.
Which YOU pay for out of your pocket.
IF it succeeds you get to use it for (on average) 5 years before it goes to your competitors. They get access FOR FREE.
So WHY would anyone ever come up with a new break through?
People are dying because the federal government via the FDA PUNISHES success and helping people.
I hear the FDA is corrupt, but even if it isn't, disbanding it would save many, many lives.
