Dazu gab es im letzten betteroffline Podcast eine interessante Diskussion - IIRC dass die Bereitschaft zu zahlen eher an Personen geknüpft sei als an den Publisher selbst. Da fällt mir z.B. Krautreporter als Medium ein, dass in die Richtung eine gute Balance findet.

Bürgergeld: Mit dem Bürgergeld lässt sich der Haushalt nicht sanieren Die Grundsicherung ist eine ökonomisch unbedeutende Leistung. Das eigentliche Problem ist ein politisches – und den Antworten linker Parteien fehlt etwas Entscheidendes.

1,3% des BIP fließen ins Bürgergeld – ein haushalterischer Nebenposten. Die echten Brocken: Rente, Gesundheit, Pflege. Mit dem Bürgergeld lässt sich kein Haushalt sanieren. Warum also die politische Dauerberieselung? Warum so viel Lärm um so wenig?

@bahn.de Ist das Buchungssystem Richtung Dänemark gestört? Ich kann derzeit keine Buchung von Kopenhagen aus machen, mit der Fehlermeldung, dass die Reservierung nicht möglich sei(zumindest bei allen Zügen, auch nicht am Reisetag, die ich probiert habe). Vielen Dank

I had the immense pleasure of interviewing Dr. Joana Cabral ahead of her keynote lecture at #OHBM2025. It was fascinating to hear about her work on metastability and chat about her research journey.

Preserve the Open Science Room at the Organization for Human Brain Mapping Annual Meeting Can you spare a minute to help this campaign?

At #OHBM2025 the Open Science Room has been squeezed and next year is at risk of being dramatically reduced/cut. If you like the OSR please consider signing/sharing this petition! chng.it/yjs4Bnyf9s

Wissenschaft als Beruf fühlt sich an wie ständiges Umsteigen zwischen Zügen, die nie anhalten, an jedem Bahnhof rennt man aufs Neue hinter einem her, je weniger Gepäck man hat, desto höher die Chance, den nächsten zu bekommen, wer nicht mehr kann & stehenbleibt verpasst den Anschluss. #IchBinHanna

Irrsinnige Summen von öffentlichen Mitteln werden investiert, damit Wissenschaftler_innen Expertise auf- & ausbauen können. Und was macht D, wenn diese Leute am Höhepunkt ihrer Expertise angelangt sind? Es wirft sie raus & fängt mit neuen Leuten wieder bei Null an. Teurer ‚Spaß‘! #IchBinHanna

Warum ist diese oft geäußerte Idee, Wissenschaftler*innen, die in den USA ihre Stellen verlieren, könnten ja zu uns kommen, so unsinnig? Nicht nur wegen der Prekärität unserer Strukturen ( #IchBinHanna) und weil es schlicht nicht geht (viele können halt nicht mal schnell den Kontinent wechseln). 1/5

Science is political. It wouldn't necessarily have to be partisan.

But when one party is opposed to science-based policy, scientists have a choice between saying "you're right, thoughts and prayers are probably as effective as reducing carbon emissions" or saying "fuck that."

Misinformation isn't random - it's strategic. 🧵

In the first cross-national comparative study, we examine 32M tweets from politicians.

We find that misinformation is not a general condition: it is driven by populist radical right parties.
