  • Yeah I'm doing work today so I can get you the exact figure. So this is kind of a composite of different research as we have two points here:

    • heightened pay disparity leads to all the outcomes I described earlier (Wilkinson, R. & Pickett, K. 2020; Bloom, 1999; Bloom & Michel, 2002)
    • research assessing what this level of disparity looks like in companies for CEO pay (n= 55,238, 45 countries sampled) shows that individuals roughly find justifiable pay should be between 5-10x the lowest paid employee. So if you have your lowest paid employee making 75k the CEO should only make a maximum of 750k to keep a level of perceived equity. (Kiatpongsan & Norton, 2014)
  • This is actually supported in the scientific literature as we know that once the pay disparity between leaders and employees goes over a certain threshold it starts to decrease basically everything for employees from wellbeing to basic productivity (I know the citation but not home and lazy to send it). Problem is most organizations don't actually really want to make good effective workplaces that are good for everyone as they only want to benefit the people on top in the short term.

  • I live in this neighborhood, let me tell you, you fucking don't. I don't own a car, I have 0 problem getting anywhere or doing anything. If I ever need that kind of vehicle our city had an entire service to easily get one for very cheap.

  • Experience has one of the lowest predictive validity out of all job selection criteria. Situational judgement is fine but I'd suggest pairing it with structural behavioral interview and job knowledge as a replacement for experience https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2022-17327-001

  • Let's say you live on the moon and need to reach earth for the funeral of your Aunt who rules the underground city of Uthrangon.

    You are discussing edge cases. Urban planning should consider edge cases but not base the code design of a city after them.
