    From my perspective you can’t bet both sides and still expect gains on average. Sure you can be lucky that the one bet wins more than the other loses but typically that doesn’t work if you bet on two opposite outcomes. There are no magical and safe ways to multiply money other than maybe being super rich and already too big to fail.






  • I got the chance to drive the Ioniq 6 and from my perspective it’s a great car and feels significantly safer to drive than a Tesla Model 3. It has physical buttons for many important features and an additional set of touch buttons. It has a screen behind the steering wheel + optionally a head up display. I never had a case of phantom breaking in around 10,000 kilometeres, while I had two in a 100 kilometres test drive with a model 3. And it is really efficient. I drive it at around 13 kWh / 100 km (slightly less than 5 miles per kWh) and it has around 550 km (340 miles) of range. In terms of software it has support for Android Auto and Apple Carplay which I personally prefer over the closed app store that is provided by Tesla. I can basically use any app that I want to stream music or navigation.

    The only really downside for me is the size. I would have preferred a much smaller car but unfortunately all the smaller ones I checked out (Volvo EX 30, Smart #1, Renault Megane E-Tech) had poor efficiency in comparison. In comparison to the model 3 the size is only slightly larger.

    In the meantime as Musk went full lunatic, I anyhow would no longer consider a Tesla. So I would say if you’re looking for an EV of that type, I’d give it a try, also if you don’t love the design at first sight. As you usually sit inside the car rather than in front of it, that anyhow shouldn’t be too important I guess. :)

    Ernstgemeinte Frage: Sind solche Details des Steuerrechts wirklich explizit in der Verfassung geregelt? Wenn es um grundsätzliche Gleichbehandlung von Einkommen ginge, müsste ja die bei 25% gedeckelte Kapitalertragssteuer auch gegen das Grundgesetz verstoßen, da sie im Vergleich zur progressiven Lohnsteuer in der Regel meist niedriger ausfällt.

    Also meinetwegen könnte man das gerne reformieren, ich wundere mich nur über die Aussage der Verfassungswidrigkeit.


  • Maybe I phrased it in a confusing way. Coffee does not smell like dog poop to me. It’s just exactly as disgusting. Can’t really compare it to anything else but it’s a very intense smell that I just can’t stand. I noticed that microwaving chocolate milk can lead to a similar smell but by far not as bad as coffee.

    It’s not roasted stuff in general that I despise and also not related to milk.

    Sorry I was out on a hike since I posted the challenge in the morning. And yes, you were meant to find the “nut” and you did a perfect job in doing so. It is indeed a Eurasian Nuthatch! 🎉

    I didn’t want to make it too easy, so I explicitly chose a picture with not only the bird itself but also some seeds as a red herring. ;)
