The old East–West divide is fading. Berlin’s electoral map is now clearly structured by a center–periphery divide: inside the S-Bahn Ring—the circular urban rail line surrounding central Berlin—the left camp dominates. Support for the right bloc rises with distance from the center. (1/2)

Underbart när Frändén vänder sig till Simone Weil i dagens politisk läge som kräver kompromisser: "Ett råd: Lita på att svenskarna är vuxna och förstår att kompromisser är nödvändiga ... Tala om att det smärtar, be om väljarnas förståelse och förklara varför ni valde det minst dåliga alternativet."

Two extraordinary charts from today’s PISA test results: 1) School test scores continue to collapse internationally, underscoring how this is no longer a Covid effect but sustained decline. Those falls in reading and maths are equivalent to about two years of lost schooling.

props to Mary Douglas for turning this apparently regular domestic frustration into an academic publication rather than a totally justified murder. (Deciphering a Meal, 1972)
Screenshot of text “Sometimes at home, hoping to simplify the cooking, I ask, "Would you like to have just soup for supper tonight? I mean a good thick soup- instead of supper. It's late and you must be hungry. It won't take a minute to serve." Then an argument starts: "Let's have soup now, and supper when you are ready." "No no, to serve two meals would be more work. But if you like, why not start with the soup and fill up with pudding?" "Good heavens! What sort of a meal is that? A beginning and an end and no middle." "Oh, all right then, have the soup as it's there, and I'll do a Welsh rarebit as well." When they have eaten soup, Welsh rarebit, pud- ding, and cheese: "What a lot of plates. Why do you make such elaborate suppers?" They proceed to argue that by taking thought I could satisfy the full requirements of a meal with a single, copious dish. Several rounds of this conversation have given me a practical interest in the categories and…”

In 2023, @nature.com published 'Papers and patents are becoming less disruptive over time', receiving world-wide media attention. Our Matters Arising, published after a 32 month delay (more on that soon), shows that the reported decline can largely be attributed to dataset artefacts. 🧵
