Okay, I have a question about stocks. This book, Lights Out, says that in 2017, the stock of GE was trading at 17 USD per share. But when I look, it doesn't seem that it ever got below 60 USD. Is the book that wildly wrong? Is there some nuance of finance that says both numbers are correct?

@byroon It's a difficult decision. I really dislike Labour's approach at the moment. They've ditched pretty much every policy to appeal to a small proportion of the electorate whom really don't deserve the right to vote (given their ignorance has effectively destroyed this country). But that said, the Tories are much worse, & if you don't (ie for the party most likely to win in your area) in the then essentially it's a vote for the Tories. Which means we NEVER get PR.1/2 .

На 4 месяц жизни в обнаружил, что с пиратскими кинотеатрами таки борются. Ну как борются, провайдерский DNS считает, что у домена кинотеатра адрес 0.0.0.0

Не то, что бы это кого то останавливало.

Je vois que GE a mis à jour son application du VScanAir (leur appareil d’echographie ultra-portable dont je suis ravi ! ) et a rajouté le doppler pulsé et le (mode M)!! Bon je n’ai pas encore trouvé le bouton pour l’activer; peut-être n’est ce pas encore fonctionnel en Europe, mais c’est bon signe ! A moi les joies du Doppler pulsé ! 🥳🥳🍾🍾🎉

2022: EPA approves pilot project to release genetically modified mosquitoes into despite widespread opposition

By Bethany Blankley | The Center Square contributor Apr 4, 2022

"'Scientists have found genetic material from in wild populations at significant levels, which means GE mosquitoes are not sterile. GE mosquitoes could result in far more health and environmental problems than they would solve,' Dana Perls, a food and technology program manager at , and California resident, said in a news release. 'EPA needs to do a real review of potential risks and stop ignoring widespread opposition in the communities where releases will happen.'"

This from 2016, but the bring up some genuine concerns about :

"This new evidence from the Cayman Islands highlights that is aware of a major flaw in its single-species, technological approach to eradicating disease-carrying mosquitoes. Oxitec makes clear that the release of the GE Asian Tiger mosquito Aedes albopictus might be needed if the release of the GE Aedes aegypti results in an increase of the numbers of . Oxitec’s 2014 application to the Cayman Islands Department of Environment states, 'Should Aedes albopictus begin to occupy the Aedes aegypti niche upon reduction in their numbers, a concurrent operation will begin to reduce the numbers of Aedes albopictus'.

"The company has also previously hid information about the mosquito’s potential to survive. Company data noted that 15 to 18% of its GM mosquitoes survive when fed on cat food containing industrially farmed chicken, which contains the antibiotic tetracycline. Environmental groups have warned that this could lead to the survival and spread of large numbers of GM mosquitoes, when they encounter this common antibiotic in the environment e.g. in discarded takeaways or septic tanks."

More concerns about mosquitoes -- especially since they can breed when exposed to

Science snipes at transgenic-mosquito trial

Nature Biotechnology volume 29, pages 9–10 (2011)

"'s plans for transgenic trials have not been without controversy in the past. They have been criticized by environmental groups, such as Ottawa-based and of Oxford, concerned about the risks of releasing an entirely new strain of organism into the environment".

So, yeah, concerns about were brushed off as "conspiracy theories" (probably twisted by Q-Anon types), but it turns out that those concerns were real. To summarize, GE mosquitoes, allegedly bred to be sterile, become not-so-sterile when exposed to -- a common antibiotic used in cattle, companion animals, and humans!

Following Review of Available Data and Public Comments, EPA Expands and Extends Testing of Genetically Engineered Mosquitoes to Reduce Mosquito Populations
For Release: March 7, 2022

"To ensure that no OX5034 female mosquito offspring survive, EPA has taken the precaution of restricting release of OX5034 mosquitos within 500 meters of potential sources of tetracyclines, as there is a remote chance that environmental sources of tetracycline could have enough tetracycline present to act as a counter agent to the OX5034 female mosquito-lethal trait. Releases must not occur within 500 meters from the outer perimeter of 1) wastewater treatment facilities; 2) commercial citrus, apple, pear, nectarine, and peach crops; and 3) commercial cattle, poultry, and pig livestock facilities. The 500-meter distance creates a conservative buffer zone between OX5034 release points and potential environmental tetracycline sources."
"Oxitec must monitor for OX5034 female mosquitoes within 100 meters of those potential environmental tetracycline sources."

There are concerns that can breed if exposed to tetracycline (links in thread)

Environmental groups relieved as release of GE mosquitoes avoided in

In what some environmental groups call a ‘major win,’ the release of genetically engineered (GE) mosquitoes in California has been averted, at least for now. The company behind the project, Oxitec, has voluntarily withdrawn its application to release these mosquitoes, which had been funded by the Bill Gates Foundation.
