@Fionnindy @Mr_Brankijam @mekkivelli @formfetish Vielleicht besagt dein Satz auch nur, dass Özmen analytische Philosophin ist und sich andere analytische Philosoph*Innen, die mit Özmen cliquenhaft verbunden sind, vor Sauer stellen. Um das beurteilen zu können, kenne ich Özmen nicht gut genug.

[Mark Thomsen @MarkMaximum7]

@Fionnindy @Mr_Brankijam @mekkivelli @formfetish Schau mal bei Bluesky, was Özmen da zu Sauer gepostet hat- definitiv negativ wertend. Kennt man nur ihre Reaktion auf Hartmanns Post, könnte man denken, sie stelle sich vor Sauer, dem ist aber nicht so.

[Mark Thomsen @MarkMaximum7]

@_sergiotahini @KanowskiJoris Das ist aber eine ziemlich unsympathische Behauptung.

[Mark Thomsen @MarkMaximum7]

@stevemagness @SageCanaday @GDellaMattia I actually read all of your books and most of your other stuff, Steve. Most is really really good and helped me a lot. So when you said that "Sawe did as much as he could about taking that off the table", I prb. would have believed you, if I hadn't read article about Berardelli.

[Mark Thomsen @MarkMaximum7]

@stevemagness @SageCanaday @GDellaMattia There is also a good case to be made that doping is a contributing factor. Many developments in endurance sports have later been traced to doping, doping is rife in Kenya. Cycling has seen larger improvements, spillover not unlikely. And btw Ross Tucker also "raised concerns".

[Mark Thomsen @MarkMaximum7]

@stevemagness @SageCanaday @GDellaMattia Since you are still on that topic, why don't you mention that Berardelli's past should raise serious doubts (actually much more than that)? While I agree that most of improvement is from shoes and nutrition, some of it will have come from doping.

[Mark Thomsen @MarkMaximum7]

@stevemagness Sawe did as much as he could? Ah, Steve, that is not very truthful. Remind me, what is the name of his coach again? And has said coach ever been accused of providing doping to one of his runners? Come on, Steve, that is not so difficult.

@_sergiotahini @econ_lessmann @SchmolkeUlrich Das bräuchte ich auch nicht. Für die viel weitergehenden Thesen von Banaszak aber schon.

@econ_lessmann @_sergiotahini @SchmolkeUlrich Ich hielte es auch für angebracht, dann auch konkrete Studien zu benennen. Es gibt mindestens klar fehlerhafte Darstellungen in einigen Studien.

I'm still seeing a lot of people who don't understand what this paper is saying, so a quick summary...

What this paper is not saying:
The harder you train, the lower your risk of major disease/death.

What this paper is saying:

Adding a small amount (~4%) of brisk walking or light jogging to your gardening or vacuuming is better for your health than gardening or vacuuming alone.

That's it.

In the paper...
- The cut-off for "vigorous" activity was a 30s bout of accelerometer data at 400mg. Many will reach this just walking briskly. For some it will take a light jog.

- Positive effects for most health problems plateaued at 4-5% of total PA. So it is not saying the more high-intensity intervals you do, the better off you are, it is saying that 10 minutes of brisk walking/d is a good thing to add on top of your gardening.

- Importantly, it *might* also be saying that your ability to walk briskly for ~10min/d is protective in itself, as fitness was not measured/controlled for.

#######

While the paper certainly doesn't show a link between the intensity of training and health, I've little doubt that there *is* a relationship between the number of idiots that I see on this platform who talk about the paper without understanding the paper and my own health.

So, please, if you lack the background to properly understand a paper, don't position yourself as an expert and talk about it as though you do.

My health thanks you.

@micha_bloss @MDoennebrink @moritzkoerner @f_schaeffler "Ich habe selbst nicht zugestimmt". Du hast gar nicht an der Abstimmung teilgenommen. Das solltest du erklären, anstelle es durch wieselhafte Formulierungen zu verschleiern.

[Mark Thomsen @MarkMaximum7]

@matthiasfuchs_ @fbrantner Einer der schlimmsten Tage als Grünen-Mitglied. Wirklich völlig absurd. Die Abstimmungsentscheidung an sich (substanziell als auch strategisch), die Ignoranz in Bezug auf gleiches Abstimmen wie AfD und andere Rechte, deren Zustimmung für Mehrheit essentiell gewesen ist.

[Mark Thomsen @MarkMaximum7]

@micha_bloss @jensspahn Wie kann das der einzige Kommentar zur Abstimmung von dir bisher sein? Wie charakterschwach und intellektuell feige möchtest du denn erscheinen, Micha?

[Mark Thomsen @MarkMaximum7]

@darioschramm Danke, Dario. Genau die richtige Einschätzung.

You could plug in racist, antisemitic views instead of opposing political views and I bet you would also rule out dating and having friendships with them.

[Mark Thomsen @MarkMaximum7]

@lxeagle17 Okay, those survey answers show a problem. But it might be easier to convince those who wouldn't date a republican that they should still hang out and discuss with them (even if it is not a friendship) and it might also be the wiser moral judgement.
