Are you up to date with the current state of Alzheimer’s research ? Much of it has been shown to be fabricated ie average alzheimer researcher has probably made zero impact. https://www.science.org/content/article/potential-fabricatio...

Also I said the average researcher, meaning taken from the global population, ie not from a top institute. Jane Street is highly concentrated in talent that produce real results in the world.

The average cancer researcher has probably done more good than the average trading firm worker though.

It's wildly inaccurate to say that much of Alzheimer's research has been shown to be fabricated. The article you link to is about one person's work. Even though he is a very influential researcher, there must be at least thousands of people doing research on Alzheimer's disease, if not more.

I wonder if this is somewhat representative of what JS workers think, or not ?
