It's a damn shame that years after this became a thing we are still waiting for a proper commercial product to hit the market <i>at a reasonable price</i>, I had a male relative with T1 diabetes and it was a complete burden on his life, We have the technology to improve peoples lives markedly (because we already did) but because of what the author mentioned in the article and the lack of "skin in the game" manufacturers are still dicking about and a lot of this only works because those manufacturers couldn't secure a blowjob in a brothel.<p>$8000 is just insane (yes I know FDA approval, testing all that jazz) but there ~1.3m Americans with Type 1 diabetes alone, there is a massive demand for a cost effective product at scale.
