It's not just weight loss that Ozempic and the other GLP-1 drugs encourage. They also help people stop drinking to excess, and help lower pangs for other harmful drugs like heroin.

I believe that these attributes are so promising, that the idea of government subsidized Ozempic just seems like great domestic policy to me. I believe that whichever politician pitches this idea first will get a ton of support from the public and the press.

It feels to me like another one of Elon's stubborn whims. Sometimes these result in great innovations, like Tesla's giant car part 'gigacasting'.

Staffing humans on the moon requires efficiencies and innovation in rocket launches, landing, inhospitable settlement, and transport of goods and people between the Earth's surface and the moon.

It is a good stepping stone towards further exploration farther out.

My great hope in these cold war-esque times of tension between China, Russia, and the US is that the field of battle becomes competition in Great Achievements for science, engineering, and space exploration.

Permanent human-staffed moonbases are a good goal to strive towards.

> Around the same time that Kambhampati’s latest application was turned down, another arm of the government, the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, gave Dr. Lana Ray, a professor at Lakehead University in Thunder Bay, Ont., a $1.2-million grant to study cancer prevention using traditional Indigenous healing practices. When the award was announced, Ray said “We need to stop framing prevalent risk factors of cancer as such and start thinking about them as symptoms of colonialism.”
