Universities sell and lease IP every day. Academic research is largely theoretical. Biotech companies spend billions every year trying to get from theories to practice.

Yeah my tax situation isn't complicated since they made it much more difficult to itemize. Businesses and unusual (or complicated) investment strategies can add layers of complexity. I'm married to a CPA, but I still do our taxes.

I have used freetaxusa for the last 3 years. I know I could do it for free if I am willing to just do the paper forms, but the convenience of e-file worth the $12 I have paid.

Reply to comment by nellirn in eli5 What do blood labs do with your blood after they have tested it? by ratboy_r97
The same thing for amputations. I work in the lab at a hospital and we have whole limbs wrapped in biohazard bags that are dated with their disposal date. I've accidentally knocked them off their shelf a couple times... surprising heavy.
