Ein historischer Moment: 65 Jahre nachdem der erste türkische Gastarbeiter nach Deutschland kam, wird mit @oezdemir.de erstmals ein türkeistämmiger Deutscher Ministerpräsident von Baden-Württemberg. Das erfüllt mich mit Stolz auf dieses Land. Glückwunsch an Ba-Wü und Cem!

The sheer size of the child penalty in labor markets (worldwide) makes it so important. Here's a new study digging deeper. @jonasjessen.bsky.social @kinnelavinia.bsky.social

But we hear all the time that GDP is growing 2% or 3%, so how is that possible? That’s because the US population is growing (especially the adult population, age 20+) GDP has grown 2.3% a year since 2010 But GDP per adult only 1.3%

It has become received wisdom in Brussels and Washington that there is a new “euro-sclerosis”: that the EU economy is lagging the US This view is wrong A little primer on the measurement of productivity – and why reports of the economic death of Europe are greatly exaggerated🧵

A lot of attention is rightfully on gender inequalities in the labour market and, to a lesser degree, on inequalities in unpaid work ⚖️ But men falling behind in education and the lack of debate around this is also a big societal problem. Great paper 👇

Ich hab keine Ahnung wie man das Berliner Urteil einordnen soll/muss. Ob die Bundesregierung Recht hat oder nicht. Aber die Art wie jetzt von vielen die Justiz oder einzelne Richter angegangen/delegitimiert werden, ist nicht weit von dem entfernt was gerade in den USA passiert.

I don’t know about the paper but agree with this being a *super* important open issue and the statement that worst case use is happening in schools. It will be key to promote the willingness to learn & think (which LLMs can help with) and not laziness (which LLMs currently seem to often do).

Heute vor 80 Jahren hat das NS-Regime kapituliert. Nach einem Weltkrieg mit 60 Mio Toten und dem Menschheitsverbrechen Shoa. Warum nach den Erfahrungen des 19. und 20. Jh noch irgendwer glauben kann, Nationalismus, Rassismus und Extremismus wären eine super Idee, wird mir immer unbegreiflich sein.

Sehr begrüßenswert, dass es ein Modellprojekt zu dem Thema Grundeinkommen gibt! Allerdings habe ich auch Zweifel am Erkenntnissgewinn der Studie: Ein "Grundeinkommen" für 3 Jahre ist einfach ein niedriger Lottogewinn (€42,200). Effekte eines permanten Grundeinkommens könnten sehr anders sein.

Keine Sondersitzungen, keine Talkshows, kein 5-Punkte Plan. Es ist klar, welches Ungleichgewicht in medialer und politischer Reaktion herrscht. Dennoch reagieren Medienvertrer:innen und Politik auf Kritik mit der plumpen Rückfrage ob sie denn über die realen Probleme der Menschen schweigen sollten.
