It started in 2007. I don't see the peak oil connection there - what is it?

GFC = Great Financial Crisis. I'd look at that first rather than some peak oil for Europe's underperformance.

Isn't TRUMPF a German company?

If have a hard time linking a slowdown from 2007 on to oil instead of the GFC.

How do you get enough data? If, for example, you need a lot of people in the sample, that might not be so easy. In the abstract, should it not come done to what is the best experimental design for each case?

The laser and optics for the EUV light source are from the US?

What's an example of a report rejected because of the use of VAERS data itself?

> In directly applied math, such as engineering, it is in fact much more common to work with unproven but well tested conjectures.

What specific areas were you thinking off? I don't recall, e.g., in numerics that things were often just unproven/conjectures, but might be subject matter specific.

Then you have to make sure that the AIs understand the theorems (sort of build a "world" for that - otherwise how'd there be confidence in the use of said theorems?

If cryptography didn't exist but the maths did, how'd you use it?

What don't you like about current reporting such as VAERS? Where do you see the barriers there specifically? Do you have examples of doctors getting their licenses revoked for reporting something?

How would you suggest to establish causality?

Don't know. But would standard smaller trials have captured it?

We are kind of back to my initial question that is conceptually unrelated to the vaccine trial: do you need trials to run into millions or billions of participants or into decades if you want to capture certain (rare) things?.

Who refused to acknowledge there could be adverse effects? I certainly was given information prior to vaccination that outlined possible adverse side effects.

Operation Warpspeed addressed that by running a very large stage 3 trial. One reason that isn't normally done is the high cost of such a large trial.

How large a trial do you want to run to capture "rare conditions"? Millions? Billions of participants? How long do you want to run trials? Years? Decades?

How should the US have pursued WWII if government force weren't an option?

Yes, comparisons are difficult between countries. With respect to unions and wages, not sure hourly wages are that bad a starting point - but happy to look at research there on differential impact. Adjusting for taxes and social programs also can create issues in terms of accounting for things accruing from those for the future (pay as you go pensions come to mind).

Not looking at households or disposable income here but at hourly wages.

No. (And comparing one country to another seems fine anyway.) Hard to make the case that unions in Germany have had no effects on wages, working time, etc.
RandomLensman

Hourly wages in Germany are not that different from the US. Depends a bit on how exactly to compare - nominal, PPP, net/gross, etc.: e.g., average nominal is about 10% higher in the US, real median is higher in Germnay, ...
