Is this about concentrated synthetic vitamin C or about the natural form? From a chemistry perspective the same, but the natural one comes in a different "package" of other substances (vitamin C complex). I wonder if the effect is the same.

Shameless plug: https://www.beehome.design/ I worked on an app that lets you design your own Bee Home and let it be fabricated at a local makerspace. This way you can help the population of solitary bees.

It actually isn’t. 400 IU is based on preventing disease. To obtain optimal health though, dosages should usually be much higher. Obviously this differs from person to person, but 2000 IU should lead to optimal vitamin D levels. This is an interesting video on the topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeLC_b5gDUM

Isn’t this different from read access? Apart from server resources, downloading content doesn’t effect a web site as much as posting on it.

Amsterdam is not a country. The country is called The Netherlands. Amsterdam is the capital.
Ask HN: Switching from developer to project manager. What to keep in mind?
What is the most important thing to think about when you’re switching from a development to a (project) management position?
