30 min in midday sun can produce 10.000-20.000 IU. It's big but not outlandish. One time mega-dose safety is established at 10.000 IU/kg for infants and toddlers [1] [1] https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19506025&#x2

You cannot take an argument I make at the extremes and apply it to the whole salary curve. It's way easier to predict performance at the lower, middle and even reasonably higher salary ranges. If you believe otherwise I'd like you

by JanSt 6y ago
No, but salary is an s-shaped curve. The higher you go, the less the additional benefit, if any. It totally does make sense, because you reach levels where differences in performance cannot be predicted at all. It's naive to believe ot

I agree and also think it's stupid to think you'll get better leaders by paying huge salaries. Would you rather see Ken Lay manage this fund?

That's pure theory. How do you know who is marginally better?

by JanSt 6y ago
No, I'm saying you can pay as much as you want, you cannot know which person will generate the best returns. What's your process for picking the person?

When your boss of a two pizza team is paid more than $600k they are probably overpaid? He seems very capable and is ready to work for that (still good) money. Do you think paying someone tens of millions would improve results for the fund?

Even self-made cloth mask show an effect on reducing spread. More and more studies show this now - and you can try for yourself. Put flour in front of you in cough into it, once with a self made mask and once without. The spread will be muc

The 2% is a guideline and is meant to be reached in 2024 (!), but it‘s no obligation. Don‘t believe everything Trump spits out. The US has a huge military interest to station troops in Europe and most people in Germany would like them to wi

Putin depends much more on selling the gas than Germany on buying it. Russia also sold gas all through the cold war. They can‘t use it as a weapon, because it would destroy themselves. Germany is also building LNG terminals. And even if t

It‘s a question of distribution power. If the power is granted to the executive branch, they can do it. It‘s part of decisions on their own country. I consider it much more questionable to exert power over allied countries to stop extraterr

Was the US lockdown so hard? I thought Europe locked down much more and the contractions there were in the 6-13% range.

The question does not make sense to me. It‘s a market. You require a masters degree and an additional tough 1.5 years of training? Better pay me well, through salary or benefits. Let‘s not kid ourselves: most of us (highly qualified) white

Teachers in Germany also have 19.5 (now 18.5) years of education. There are few jobs that require more (e.g. doctors).

I have cycled between heavy consumption and no coffee intake at all. On the first few days I often had headaches and felt slightly depressive (I'm pretty much never feeling depressive otherwise) and unproductive. After a week or so off

I'm german and I have never heard that. Coffee has a great reputation and pretty much everyone I know drinks it. It's more of a social stigma not to.

Quoting a lot of studies makes a great impression, but it's only worth it if you're not cherry-picking. Have you read the actual studies he's quoting? I did. Well, I read the first 50 or so. More times than not, they did not

It's a stupid move, because the tech and reserves won't go away. As soon as prices rise again to levels needed by Saudi Arabia the reserves will be exploited again. Probably they hope that banks give less money and hedges to shale
