@anncathrin87 Man hätte stattdessen auch einfach die Semestergebühren übernehmen können, sind in den meisten Fällen auch um die 200€.

@anncathrin87 BundID hat sich im Dezember '22 selbst dafür gefeiert, dass ≈0,3% aller Bürger eine verknüpfte BundID haben. Jetzt wird von ein paar Millionen Studis verlangt dieses bürokratische Verfahren zu erledigen...
Zudem hat man ca. 450k internationaler Studis in DE - das wird ein Chaos.

Students at Tehran's Amirkabir University chant "canons, tanks and guns won't work anymore, tell my mum she doesn't have a daughter anymore" on day 25 of nationwide protests in Iran after the death of #MahsaAmini.

My government has decided to remove Soviet monuments from public spaces across #Estonia. As symbols of repressions and Soviet occupation they have become a source of increasing social tensions – at these times, we must keep the risk to public order at a minimum.

On "prime day" don't forget. Amazon does everything it can to avoid paying the taxes that make it possible for the company to have such colossal profits. #AmazonPrimeDay https://t.co/QhxoiRHR5p

Even if we were to find evidence that AI is reliably able to infer emotions, that alone would still not justify its use. Our emotions are the most intimate parts of our personality & are protected by human rights, my interview @NBCNews @Elliot_Lewis23 https://t.co/DEdo9uKHGh

Wie wird man zum Autokraten - und wären Sie bereit, für die gute Sache die Demokratie ein wenig zu biegen? Hat das Web die Demokratie befördert - oder zerstört? @derStandardat-Schwerpunkt, mit Hans Rauscher, @krisenfrey, @wolflotter, @HNSGR, @andererfellner, @L4ndvogt

„Unseren Widerstand als Kriegstreiberei zu beschreiben und als eine Provokation Putins darzustellen, ist völliger Unsinn. Für das russische imperialistische Regime ist schon unsere Existenz eine Provokation, weil wir eine Demokratie sind.“ https://t.co/vynD0YRxHy

This description of Tucker Carlson's demagogic method by is dead on: "gleefully courting blowback, then fashioning himself as his aggrieved viewers’ partner in victimhood..." Well done, @nickconfessore. Link should work for non-subscribers. https://t.co/Yz3pfh6DpF

The richest man in the world chose to champion freedom of information, transforming life for many.

That man was Andrew Carnegie.

The 1,500 cities that he gave libraries (at a cost of $1B today) in the early 1900s had 8-13% higher patenting rates than similar cities without them

NEW: for the first time in the pandemic, a Covid infection now carries less mortality risk than a flu infection in England, the result of widespread immunity and the emergence of a less virulent variant in Omicron.

Weil es öfters heißt Linke seien Putin Buddys und Verschwörungsheinis wenn sie auch auf Probleme der inneren Verhasstheit der Ukraine und zB das ungeklärte Maidan Massaker hinweisen. Das ist der Doktorvater von KT zu Guttenberg. Keine Pointe 👇🏽 https://t.co/0EG3fC4qDI
