Holy crap I love this article. Long form, in depth, about important topics, talking to key players, and distilling the learnings into comprehensible and actionable items. This is some seriously fine journalism. It seems that economics is the core problem to be addressed in science today. Figure out how to generalize the money pool, remove the perverse incentives, and give scientists the time to do science, rather than apply for grants. I could solve this problem in 10 minutes flat, if I had 4 billion dollars. Sheesh. Now I have to go invent something Google will buy...
