Warhol, Haring, Pollock – after the NFT art market of contemporary artworks failed, they now go for the safe old modernists?

Sometimes when the boss is away the team works better. At least, that is the case with my team. I don't really know why. Because I really think I am not a bad boss. But apparently either I am or they just don't need one and I am i

It's nice when science confirms personal experience. Early 2020 I started to change my life. Exercise, healthier food, weight control. My conclusions: I got stronger, had less back pain and less fat, felt calmer. Weight went down signi

I would like to argue that point by saying these 100,000 are not separated in 100,000 vaccinated and 100,000 unvaccinated, but I am not sure. Anyway: in Germany the numbers are: 4 times more probable for the unvaccinated. I all depends on h

Cause, if you write "twice as likely" you will have to measure against vaccincation rates. If 1000 people are vaccinated, and 10 get infected, versus 10 unvaccinated with 1 infection: who is more likely?

Yet, the latest data out of the UK (COVID-19 vaccine surveillance report Week 42, Page 13) [1] shows that the double-vaccinated are around TWICE as likely to catch COVID-19 I hope you don't work in programming or data analytics

You are talking about two different topics. The first case: this story is not an article. It's a press release, and I wish we would stop treating these like "scientific publications". The second case: there is a real debate g

Same with me. In my case, the Economist, who does the same like the New York Times. Subscribing is a click, canceling is a call to a representative who will talk to me about how they "love to discuss a more affordable or flexible subsc

Do you need a prescription for Ibuprofen in Spain? Strange. In Germany, go to the drugstore and buy it yourself. € 10 for 100 400mg pills. And if you are ill, usually you go to a doctor near you. Only in real emergencies, go to the hospital

Having the Economist, NY Times and WP reporting according to a certain liberal, free market bias is bad. But, in a world of post-truth, not having them at all would be worse. For me, there is still a difference between bias and not caring a
