For the author: Getting all that money without the life experience to build some values or ambitions for your impact on the world is proof enough that your fortune is just random luck. There are millions who have put more thought into life and had no financial reward for it. Give it to them, or get a life for yourself. Then you'll know what to do.
In Europe though 15 days would be illegal. You'd start day one with 5 weeks. Minimum. Plus bank holidays.
Out of interest, how did you see that coming? The discussions I remember here on HN were full of people wondering why, and being generally blindsided by the news...
So, you're saying you want to live in Europe.
Sure, isogenic cohorts, if the lives of living creatures is valueless, that's fine. Better to work towards in-vivo whenever possible, in my opinion.
Yes, several hours per image. This resolution is still an achievement. But in vivo images (alive) are much more useful as they enable longitudinal studies, but obviously far more challenging to get anything close to good resolution in a mouse. More like 150 micron in alive, sedated mouse brains, even from 9.4T.
That's a good point and another reason to encourage it. It would boost rail over road, which makes far more sense.
If you're a consumer in the UK, and thinking about an EV, consider Octopus Energy's Go tariff: https://octopus.energy/go/. They also offer a salary sacrifice scheme to buy EVs: https://octopusev.com/, because this grid-supplementing storage is part of their offering, I think.
Concerns such as, "will my car be charged in the morning -- or for that emergency hospital run?" are considered, I believe, and you can set things like a "minimum charge" with smart chargers.
This is a valuable reply because it describes my own experience so well. Thank you.
