Wie wäre es denn statt die Kinderlosen an die Kasse zu bitten, mehr Anreize zu schaffen, dass Menschen in D Kinder bekommen wollen, weil es sich mit Leben und Beruf vereinbaren lässt. Klar, wenn ich wenig Geld am Ende des Monats auf der Hand habe, in einer - vielleicht auch deswegen - sozial schwachen Ecke wohne - von denen es in D nicht wenige gibt - und das ganze System (Krankenkassen, Arbeitsmarkt, etc) einem um die Ohren fliegt, fragt man sich vielleicht zweimal, ob man Knirpse in die Welt setzen möchte. Doch … das ist zuviel Arbeit für Frau und Herr Politiker, die sich stattdessen lieber die Diäten erhöhen. ROFL!

I think the problem is mostly systemic rather than individual. Most scientists do not enter academia in order to waste time. They are often curious and motivated. But universities and funding systems reward publications and other measurable output more than impact or risky new ideas.

IMO this is the reason why we see many researchers end up producing work that is technically correct but has little relevance. The system forces you to survive inside academia than to explore. As a consequence, the system can become self-perpetuating and disconnected from societal or industrial needs, which makes the entire situation far more worse.

So, these are all in general systemic problems, but one should not forget that individual scientists have also the responsibility for how they approach their work.

I see the problem how it is presented - sometimes like new findings. Replication is just replication and the question always remains if the results are just different due to new technics (computer, larger experiments) or due to errors. Does it really push science ahead? Is it really new. Don’t think so, because it just adds the information that the constellation (!) may affect the hypothesis, while the hypothesis is not said to be false at all. I hope you understand what I mean.

IMO you get new findings more often in astrophysics when they approach new dimensions of the universe and suddenly certain laws does not apply or in medicine where due to mutations and resistance new frontiers and challenges appear.

I have the impression that since pretty much 20 years or even more, the number of published papers, where scientist repeated old theories or hypothesis and concluded the same, skyrocketed. This may not be in every field the case, but in some fields like ecology there is a certain tendency. Just recently a team published with large excitement a paper which showed that trees communicate via volatile organic compounds (https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2021/05/04/993430007/trees-talk-to-each-other-mother-tree-ecologist-hears-lessons-for-people-too). Well, studies, which showed the same, were already done in the 80‘s.

Da stimme ich dir zu. Denkt man an Dynamo‘s Hool Szene, die nahezu alle in der rechten Szene sind, sollte trollercoaster sich umsehen, wenn er in der dunkelsten Ecke von Dunkeldeutschland unterwegs ist.

Zwischen „wollen“ und „machen“ ist bekanntlich noch eine Lücke.

Jump Style.

I think one important point are the costs. Who is paying for the rent? For the houses? For assurances, electricity, warm water, etc?

You don’t have such fields in openrc, runit or S6.

I would say that you don’t leave any living being in the car, which is not capable to opening the door with ease by itself, when temperatures are elevated outside!!! This counts for elderly, immobile or physically or mentally disabled people as well as for any animal - dogs die often due to leaving them alone in the car when it’s hot, sometimes the window slightly open, though this does not help.

So, please, take action if you see anybody or any animal suffering in a car, because it is hot. In some countries you can call the police.

The impression does not leave me that he would fight if the situation would be much in favour for Russia and the treatment at the front by the commanders way better. But perhaps I missed a critical sentence in the article.

Funny, you are using with lemmy something for free, which is to some extent in the spirit of FOSS.
