SciAm really should prefer a headline such as: Psilocybin opens up new pathways to treating anorexia

I guess in the sense that if your goal is to sell, you'd optimize on revenues. That being said, when I look at an income statement I am usually more suspect of costs than revenues.…

Pre-GFC subprime mortgage market size was $1.3T. Seems like AI debt market is plenty big enough to reverberate widely.

Silly person didn't you see that film with Ashton Kutcher?

And if your bets aren't correlated.

Long on bluster, short on execution. Seems to be going around these days.
