Täglich grüsst das Murmeltier, der immer gleiche Artikel zu jedem Thema…

Fakt ist: sie haben keine Innovation.

Sie denken rückwärtsgewandt und wollen mit Deregulierungen den letzten Tropfen aus dem bestehenden System herauspressen.

Cooperatives are not public housing. They are non-profit communities that. buy or construct housing for their members. Each of the members has to bring in capital to acquire shares in the cooperative which in turn is being used for acquisition or construction of additional houses.

Secondly: I am stunned that parking lots occupy so much of potential housing space in cities. Why not put the underground and construct affordable housing above them.

As a foreigner in this country I find it surprising that some of the tested models in Europe are not being adopted in the US. One of them is housing cooperatives, others are philanthropy like the Fugger houses in Germany.

Thanks, Maggie! I will look into this.

Autocorrect keeps changing TRUCOLOR to tricolor!

Tricolor!

Do you know where this print comes from, Maggie?

Charging networks can grow fast once demand is up.

We had the same problem, when ICE were introduced. Only when Ford‘s Model-T was available did the gas station network expand.

Congrats to film scholar @vinzenzhediger.bsky.social for his nomination as the new director of the Cinémathèque Suisse.

„Man darf ja seine Meinung nicht mehr äussern“, aber das in allen Medien und auf allen Kanälen.

Dass denen dieses Paradox nicht auffällt, ist schon bemerkenswert….

Her research on colour has been celebrated and put to use by film experts around the world. In 2023 when the Colour Group in Great Britain awarded her the Turner Medal for her colour research, her Turner Lecture focused on Lye’s films.Her award-winning proposal centres on further research into Lye’s films at the Lye Archive at the Govett-Brewster Art Gallery in New Plymouth, as well as other archives in Aotearoa New Zealand.Roger Horrocks ad Wystan Curnow, speaking for the Len Lye Foundation, said:“There was a very strong field of entries for this year’s Webb Award, from Australia, the US, as well as New Zealand. They included university theses on Lye and in-depth research essays on his films, paintings, sculptures, and links with noted artists and writers. We were very impressed by all entries but saw Flueckiger’s work on colour as outstanding. We hope the Webb Award will bring her to New Zealand, where there's strong interest in her insights on film history and Len Lye's work.”A heartfelt thank you to everyone who submitted entries and assisted the Foundation to get the Award word out there.@scan2screen @fluecolor @timeline_filmcolors @govettbrewster @ngataongasv----------------------------------------------------------------------Portrait image supplied by Barbara Flueckiger.Film stills from ‘Colour Flight’ (1938) A “direct” film made without a camera sponsored by Imperial Airways.

Interessiert mich, aber der Link scheint nicht mehr zu funzen? Zu alt, sagt Spiegel.

Are high resolution scans of these images available?

This photo of Ben Hur looks like mine from the Timeline…

Trust in universities has not been undermined by them, it is public discourse shifting to the right that undermines trust in science.

We see this pattern everywhere, not just in the US where facts and scientific evidence hinder the spread of political propaganda.

Daniel Craig is the worst, he has no humor and self-irony.

It also makes the best use of S3D, see my paper Aesthetics of Stereoscopic Cinema.

Ah, Ja, wir erinnern uns an diese „unangebrachten Flirts“, die viele Kolleginnen von Frau Berben traumatisiert zurückgelassen haben.

Aber klar, „moralinsauer“…

Eine solche Headline ist echt fahrlässig. Biedermann und die Brandstifter.

Ein enorm wichtiger Faktor ist die Forschung und damit Innovation.

Die USA haben auf den Sputnik-Schock mit einem massiven Förderungsprogramm für die Forschung reagiert.

Die klügsten Köpfe gehen da hin, wo es die besten Ressourcen für Innovation gibt. Da kann Deutschland leider nicht mithalten.

What the heck is this horrible auto-dubbing function on YouTube?

I want to watch videos in their original language unless decided otherwise.

Es ist ungeheuer wichtig, auf diese Problematik hinzuweisen.

Bei aller Sorge ums Geld: Am Ende ist die Gesundheit eines der kostbarsten Güter.

Am besten erstellst Du ein Crowd-Funding, damit die OP zeitig stattfinden kann.

Ich verstehe nicht, warum diese Frau immer und immer wieder in Schweizer Medien als Amerika-Expertin gefeatured wird.

Sie verfolgt eine eindeutige Propaganda und scheint insbesondere von den Grossstädten keine Ahnung zu haben.

Falsch abgezweigt.

Wo Birgit Schmid drauf steht, ist Birgit Schmid drin.

Immer total vorhersehbar, was sie sagt.

Viele Leute mit LC behalten ihre Krankheit für sich, weil es mühsam ist, sich all die Zweifel und nicht immer gut gemeinten Ratschläge anzuhören.

Berlusconi in Italy, Brain drain for two decades.

I don‘t necessarily agree on this. Having spent months doing research at Harvard and a daughter with a PhD from the Broad Institute I can testify that this university has a top-level research infrastructure and activity. With research being fully funded they can attract the best researchers globally
