Well for music or movies there's the weekly paquete. /u/Saickyo, is this correct? Also, is it known in Cuba who creates it? And do you use it, or is the internet enough?

With 2, do you not account for risk? Risk that the research doesn't pan out, obviously, but what about the risk that the problem is solved? If I set aside $5000 for malaria prevention, but invest it so I can help more people -- let's say I get 7% real return, so in ten years I can save two lives, in twenty four, in thirty eight. So I decide to put the money away and wait thirty years -- but then they somehow otherwise solve malaria, and now my money is useless. So wouldn't that translate to a discounting rate for those future lives?

I'm 18, I started thinking about if I would be able to do what he did in that situation, until I realized -- I wouldn't've even gotten the chance to. If I lived where half of my family did at the time, I'd either have been drafted into the Red Army or shot at home for being a Jew like most of my grandpa's family was. And I'm still basically a kid, fuck
