And perhaps one of our states leaves the country.

Even worse: They are hoping that LLMs in training don’t realize that it’s an ad

Hosting with close allies shouldn’t be a problem.

Within the EU, I still don’t care in which country the data is hosted

I wouldn’t say forever. But it will take a long time to rebuild.

Universal healthcare providers sometimes choose to cover drugs or treatments that have slightly worse outcomes instead. The treatment that was state of the art 10 years ago probably still works just fine.

Patents last 20 years. But most of that time, a drug is in trials.

Providers can also choose not to cover other drugs by the same company, if they refuse to budge. Not being able to sell any drugs across an entire country would be a big problem for companies.

I thought generics were handled relatively similarly in the EU and the US, but apparently the US does grant a bunch of exclusivities, on top of patents.

However the biggest difference between those health systems still seems to be how providers bargain for lower prices.

In the US, insurances bargain for rebates. That means that if you buy a drug with insurance the insurance only pays a small percentage of the drug price. They are still allowed to demand copay on the list price. So often the insurance makes a profit in that transaction. But if you try to go around insurance you have to pay the full list price and will pay even more.

Over here, the universal healthcare providers bargain with the pharma companies to lower the list price. And with a much greater bargaining power to boot.

High prices are due to a lack of government regulations.

Pharma companies can set the prices according to what people are willing to pay. And people are willing to pay everything if it will save their lifes.

It doesn’t have to be. Here we have mandatory insurance. So it’s still called a premium.

I have, or well from other doctors at least. Our universal healthcare doesn’t pay things they don’t consider important. Paying everything would undermine their bargaining power.

But those bills are always itemized.

They aren’t going to manufacture there. Chip manufacturing happens almost exclusively in Taiwan. That new building is just an office to design those chips.

A lot of maths goes into designing computer chips. You need an army of highly trained mathematicians and engineers for that.

And Israel is a really rich country that gets a lot of gifts and “investments” from people who want to show they aren’t antisemitic. They invest a lot of that money into the education of their citizens.

Israel’s universities are some of the best in the world. While US universities are on a steep downhill.

Did I use too many big words for you? Or is that a commentary about the for-profit health system?

Exercise intolerance is a symptom of really serious shit. Heart disease, lung disease, kidney disease. Those are things OP should really get checked out. Even if they can barely afford it. That might well save their life.

If you can hear them peeing, that’s not an apartment. That’s a paper cell

Unciv. Basically civ V on mobile.

It’s very questionable in terms of copyright, though

I second the doctor.

It might just be an utter lack of fitness. But even then a doctor might give you tips.

Or it could be something more serious.

Don’t take medical advice that doesn’t come from a doctor.

(Did you take spironolactone for Hyperaldosteronism, or just for the breasts. Because those side effects look horrible)

i recently discovered Tom Lehrer through some shit post. But I guess it depends on what you define as new

Most cheeses aren’t made from raw milk nowadays. And in some countries (e.g. the US) that’s even illegal. Even though raw milk cheeses are delicious
