The true happiness divide isn't the chasm between the city & rural areas, but the gulf within #city gates. @crhistianjoel.bsky.social, @pfaggy.bsky.social & Veneri argue in @urbanstudiesjournal.com we are consumed by losing the race against our neighbours, not a rival city. doi.org/10.1177/0042...

POV: you go to your local mall and run into a urban digital twin presentation! The #Wiesbaden digital twin supposed to help in participatory planning processes. Curious to hear more. Check it out: wiesbaden.virtualcitymap.de#/

‚How close is close?‘ Joe Shingleton using LLM to compare AirBnB claims of proximity /w actual distances. See how many listings say ‘close to Buckingham Palace’ all over the place 😁 #AGILE2025

When winter feels the longest, we fortunately organize our own PhD-peer workshop at BiB! The ‘wall of compliments’ – where only pep talk is allowed – was a good balance to useful and critical feedback to my paper 🙏 Thanks @eliashofmann.bsky.social and everyone else! #phdlife #populationgeography

Yes, suburban areas have gained population, but for the average city, urban areas have considerably gained more in Germany recently! I was fortunate to present current work, comparing building-based to other urban-rural classifications at #PAA2024 in Columbus ➡️ tinyurl.com/suburbangrid
