I seem to have been maintaining this guide for over five years now; I started in June 2021. 79 edits so far, most of which have been mine.

Zum 2. Mal den Film 3 1/2 Stunden @… gesehen. Es geht um den Tag des Mauerbaus und einen Zug, der auf dem Weg in die DDR ist.
Der Plot ist gut und es gibt zahlreiche mikro-Plots, die alle noch viel besser erzählt sind.
Insgesamt ist der Film großartig, denn es stimmt alles. Tolle Schauspieler mit glaubhaften Rollen, die Tiefe haben. Wunderbare Bilder und Licht.

Five years ago, the West risked a
full-blown diplomatic crisis with NATO ally Turkey
when 10 ambassadors called for the release of a man they saw as a political prisoner,
prompting an angry President Tayyip Erdogan to order their expulsion.
After two frantic days in 2021,
the sides stepped back from the brink with the U.S., French, German, Canadian and other envoys issuing conciliatory statements
and Erdogan saying they would be more careful in the future…

Improved Approximation Guarantees for Groupwise Maximin Share Fairness
Georgios Amanatidis, Anna Korfiati, Evangelos Markakis, Christodoulos Santorinaios
https://arxiv.org/abs/2606.04731 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2606.04731 https://arxiv.org/html/2606.04731
arXiv:2606.04731v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: We study the problem of fairly allocating a set of indivisible goods to a set of $n$ agents with additive valuation functions. We focus on the very demanding notion of \textit{groupwise maximin share fairness} (GMMS), which requires that each agent $i$ receives value comparable to their maximin share, where the latter is computed \textit{with respect to any subset of agents that contains $i$}. We show that it is possible to compute $(\phi-1)$-approximate GMMS allocations in polynomial time, where $\phi \approx 1.618$ is the golden ratio). This improves on the previously known guarantee of $4/7$ of Chaudhury et al. [SICOMP; 2021] and Amanatidis et al. [TCS; 2020]. We propose a simple algorithm that maintains the same main properties as the Draft-and-Eliminate algorithm of Amanatidis et al. [TCS, 2020] and we improve on the approximation guarantee analysis by carefully bounding the relevant value within any subinstance induced by the restriction of our allocation to a subset of agents. Our analysis is asymptotically tight for algorithms that share these properties and has the additional benefit of giving improved guarantees for restricted settings; in particular, when the agents agree on the top $n$ goods or when the number of agents is small. To illustrate the challenges of going beyond the guarantees of our algorithm, we also present a variant with an improved approximation of $(\sqrt{10}-1)/3 \approx 0.72$ for the case of three agents. To achieve this improvement we partially characterize the maximin share guarantees of short picking sequences for a small number of goods.

Voor wie niet slapen kan, geen voetbal kijkt en een VPN heeft.
'Berlijn, 1931. De stad heeft te lijden onder de economische crisis en onzekerheid. Terwijl de 32-jarige Germanist Jakob Fabian overdag zijn werk als reclame-copywriter doet, verkent hij samen met zijn medestudent Labude 's nachts de onderwereldkroegen, bordelen en kunstenaarsstudio's. - Dominik Graf's Film (2021) is gebaseerd op de originele versie van de beroemde roman van Erich Kästner.'
