Well, Pomodoro is a good technique.

You may also try doing it with another person. Sometimes coding is quicker in a team, paradoxically.

Also, maybe tinker with the layout/userface in the program you're using? Or try doing it with some non-invasive background music so that the brain has more to do

Are they all the same type/content? If not, switch it up! You may be bored of the things you read in the material, not the coding activity itself.

Alternatively, if they come in batches, pick small ones and celebrate completion. This gives a dopamine click & may increase your motivation for more.

Naja, auch faktisch nicht korrekt. Viele Unis (z.b. Jena) schafften jetzt besonders eine Stelle Beauftragte für Antisemitismus - damit die, die als Palästinenser/Muslime und als JüdInnen zur Beratung kommen, nicht bei der selben Person bei der Stelle für Antidiskriminierung landen. Unis kümmern sich

Es gibt auch nicht so was in PL. Es gibt fünf offizielle Nationaltänze (krakowiak, polonez, kujawiak, oberek, mazur) + zig weiteren, die als lokal gelten und alle, außer polonez, kommen aus konkreten Regionen.
Man lernt sie bloß in ganzen Polen in Sportunterricht. Mit polonez öffnet man Abi-Ball.

I am very happy that there is a ceasefire and that the hostages returned home.
Simultaneously, I am appalled by the discourse around it. "A great day for Israel", "an end to a nightmare".
Well, how about the 70k Palestinians killed and many more starving? How about persecution for the responsible?

That being said, they were never in charge of transport or infrastructure. That was always in the hands of CSU, CDU or FDP.

Sure, they should have pressed their coalition partners more, or even insist on taking over the resort. They are not fully innocent. But they are also not the main culprit.

Nee. Was Chancen blockiert, sind Perspektivlosigkeit und ständiges Umbewerben. Projektstrukturen, d.h. Stückwerk ohne Nachhaltigkeit. Die Notwendigkeit, immer wieder neue Leute suchen und einstellen zu müssen. Ganz zu schweigen davon, dauernd denselben unsinnigen Pseudo-Argumenten zu widersprechen.

A map of spread of the bubonic plague in Europe in 14th century

PL avoiding the bubonic plague in the 14th century.
It resulted in:
1) the raise of Jewish population in PL to be the largest in the world,
2) raise of economic dualism in Europe, with the decimated West moving into manufacturing, better wages & rights,& the East sticking to feudalism & agriculture.

The neverending story of 🇵🇱 trying to fix the faulty legal system after PiS contaminated it it with anti-rule-of-law bills shows how hard it is to clean up after non-democrats.
The looming prosidential veto also tells us that they are hardly ever fully gone - sth we'll likely see in 🇭🇺 if Orbán loses.

So, let me get this straight. A veneer of a ceasefire is sufficient to make everyone forget that Netanyahu engaged in an unnecessary genocide of Palestinians instead of pursuing members of Hamas, after a colossal intelligence and political failure he is in part responsible for?!

My second week on the new campus, and someone in the neighborhood building is playing Bad Religion very loudly. I guess I'll find my people here.

Mindestens nicht "Háiková"!

Aber ehrlich, wie sie es schaffen? Sie geben sich die Mühe, die Sonderzeichen mit den korrekten Akzent zu nutzen, aber dann nicht die korrekten "normalen" Buchstaben. Oder statt einfach den ganzen Namen copy&pasten.

Genauso wie man den deutschen (deutschsprachigen) Sonderweg der Habilitation endlich aufgeben sollte, sollte man die Ausbeutung der Privatdozent*innen durch unentgeltliche Titellehre sein lassen. Sie ist ein Instrument der sozialen Auslese.
Ich habe unterschrieben. Unterschreib Du auch!

My favourite bit of trivia about town twinning is that Dull, Scotland proposed a twinning to Boring, Oregon, USA, for no other reason that it would be hilarious. Then Bland, New South Wales, Australia asked to twin with them as well. And so, in 2013 they created the 'Trinity of Tedium'.

Gibt es ein Land, mit dem Deutschland gute Beziehungen hat? Mit Polen - im Keller. Mit Frankreich - nachbesserungsbedürfitg. Mit Österreich - seit Jahren ignoriert. Mit Italien - seit Jahren vernachlässigt. Mit Dänemark? Ärger um Bauverspätungen beim Fehmarnbelttunnel.

Now I can make it official:

On October 1st I started a new job at the University of the Bundeswehr Munich.

I have joined professor Julia Elad-Strenger at the Chair of Social and Conflict Psychology as a post-doc.

The feeling when a technician complements your power tools is like nothing else.

(I had one over to check my Internet connection at the new place. My drill-driver was standing in a visible place, next to some to-be-assembled furniture. It was the same brand as the one he had in his tool box.)

In Polish when someone provides false or unsubstantiated information with confidence, they are described as having taken it from IDzD. IDzD stands for Instytut Danych z Dupy (the Institute of Out-of-your-Ass Data).
