[#]StandingTogether #omdimbeyachad #עומדיםביחד
The Israeli Peace NGO "Standing Together" (@omdimbeyachad) writes today:
"The moment we have been waiting for so long!
The declaration of a ceasefire in Gaza opens a door to hope after a devastating war.
The road to recovery and reconstruction is still long. Families and children are still living in tents, and humanitarian needs are increasing. After bringing in about 150 aid trucks, we continue to support the people of Gaza, focusing on bringing warm clothes and blankets. The ceasefire is not the end, but the beginning of the road to restoring hope. There're great challenges, and together we will continue to work for a better tomorrow for everyone living on this land.
Now, just after the announcement of the deal, we have the opportunity to bring in more warm clothes, shoes, sheets and tents for the population in Gaza."

[#]Media #SocialMedia #Advertising #Instagram #Twitter #Facebook #Threads #BlueSky
We've grown so accustomed to social media and to advertising and the connected industry that it feels entirely normal. But —
the very idea that somebody could earn money from our social interactions — isn't that absolutely bizarre?

[#]SpeedLimit #Germany #Traffic #CO2 #Tempolimit
Schnelles Autofahren verbraucht erheblich mehr Benzin und produziert deutlich mehr CO2.
Wir brauchen deshalb ein Tempolimit! Und jetzt ist ja die FDP aus der Koalition raus!
Im Internet gilt kein Tempolimit — deshalb jetzt gleich so schnell ihr könnt zur Petition:

[#]Germany #Berlin #AntiFascist #Protests #b1412
Die AfD und andere Rechte hatten zu heute, Sonnabend 14. Dezember, zu einer Demo für Recht und Ordnung aufgerufen, ausgerechnet in Berlin Friedrichshain. Etwa 16 Organisationen (zB #OmasGegenRechts) haben daraufhin zu Gegendemos eingeladen. Am Ende waren die Straßen voller Gegendemonstranten, die Originaldemo war nirgends zu sehen. Laut Ansage von Beobachtern waren das wohl "40-50 Leute mit einem häßlichen Plakat und asynchronen Sprechchören".

Thank you @screw_dog for pointing to the paper — and good to see that the rotating-table theorem was actually proven, not refuted:
https://ar5iv.org/html/math/0511490
Knowing this, I will now rotate tables in the street cafés of Berlin with pride and confidence.

[#]mathematics #geometry #cafés
There was a claim that a circle on a curved surface will always conain the vertices of a square that lie in one plane.
Differently put: You can always rotate a square table to find a position where it doesn't wobble.
There was a paper, I think — unfortunately I don't remember where I read it, nor whether it confirmed or refuted the claim.
I've done a couple of tests in cafeś — in case you see someone sitting at a diagonally rotated table in a café in Berlin.

[#]latex #elsevier #publishing
Question: In an Elsevier paper, do you include the CRediT statement in the frontmatter of the paper draft, before submitting?
If yes, how do you do that? It doesn't seem to be part of the elsarticle latex package.

[#]Trump #Election #Speech #Debate2024
One thing that strikes me in Trump's way of talking – "They're eating the pets. Of the people that live there." — is the use of "that" instead of "who". The people "that" live there, not the people "who" live there.
He's talking about people as if they were objects.

[#]daylightsavingtime #autumn
Daylight saving time's over, we're back to normal again. While everybody likes the extra hour, I was wondering:
Do you feel we lost an hour last spring and are now getting it back?
Or do you feel we're borrowing an hour now and have to give it back next spring?

Sagt mal, "Gel" ist doch sächlich, oder? "Das Gel", nicht "der Gel"?
Frage nur, weil der Laden um die Ecke "Schutzengel" verkauft. Wahrscheinlich was zum Einreiben, jetzt wo es kälter wird.

[#]Reprieve #DeathPenalty #Petition
The death penalty is one of the most inhumane institutions I can think of. I know no good reason to support it, but many reasons to oppose it. And hence to sign this petition:

[#]Israel #Palestine #MiddleEast
More big anti-war protests in Israel, while police keeps denying demonstration permits (picture and information shared by @omdimbeyachad.)
The writing on the floor calls for an end of the war. (As far as I can read it: "... stop the war. But Bibi prefers...").

[#]Israel #Palestine #MiddleEast
In the middle east, there's war.
One one side: Israeli and Arab/Palestine religious and nationalist groups and leaders, saying to one another: "We are native and peaceful, you are foreign and violent, we need to fight you."
What they're doing you can read in the news.
On the other: The peace movement, the Israeli Left, NGOs like @omdimbeyachad, saying: "All who live here belong here, no-one's going anywhere".
Here's what they're doing:

This looks hopeful:
An #Isreali-#Palestinian #peace #conference, organised by NGOs like @omdimbeyachad.
"is the first public event in Israeli society in which Jewish and Palestinian citizens will ... begin a peace process that derives from the people. ... more than 50 civil society organizations are working together to build the infrastructure for such a process."
