Die Stadt genehmigte vor etwas über einem Jahr ein zusätzliches Parkhaus mit 200 Stellplätzen am Hannibal-Center.
Zusätzliche Radabstellanlagen: 0

Jetzt ist die Politik anscheinend überrascht, dass kostenlose Parkplätze Autofahrende anlockt und die Anwohnenden beschweren sich seit Jahren über zu viele Autos.
Hier hätte die Politik und Verwaltung sichere Gehwege und attraktive Radwege schaffen können. ÖPNV ist hier schon gegeben.
Mehr Mut zu weniger Autos!

Operation Overload: Russia wilfully flooding newsrooms with fake news
A new report says that the scheme also seeks to amplify certain fake narratives by having reporters publish their debunks and share them far and wide. #TheCube

US: Russia looking to Iran to supply more drones, missiles
Struggling to maintain a steady supply of arms for its war in Ukraine, Moscow is looking to Iran once again to resupply the Russian military with drones and surface-to-surface missiles. That's according to a National Security Council official and a United Nations diplomat. The official says there is growing U.S. concern that Russia may seek to acquire additional advanced conventional weapons from Iran. The official spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss U.S. intelligence. The official says …

Double-Anonymous Review for Robotics
Prior research has investigated the benefits and costs of double-anonymous review (DAR, also known as double-blind review) in comparison to single-anonymous review (SAR) and open review (OR). Several review papers have attempted to compile experimental results in peer review research both broadly and in engineering and computer science. This document summarizes prior research in peer review that may inform decisions about the format of peer review in the field of robotics and makes some recomme…

Demystifying Anonymity: Uncovering the Structure Underlying "Read-Write Wait-Free Covering"
The study of particular synchronization problems in anonymous shared-memory models -- be it processor anonymity, memory anonymity, or full anonymity -- has produced ad hoc, so-called covering arguments in which processors overwrite each other's writes. Those arguments give us proverbial fish, but they do not teach us how to fish. In this paper, we take a step back to ask more general questions. First, what does it mean to solve a task under processor anonymity? With tasks such as renaming, th…

One Month After a Supposed Cyberattack Hit NY's Legislature, We Still Know Next to Nothing About What Happened - Hell Gate
During the final hours of the state's budget negotiations, a critical bill drafting system went offline. We still don't have an explanation of exactly what happened.

«Laut Robér Bormann von den SBB sei das Problem aber erkannt und das Buchungssystem Ende letzten Jahres geändert worden. Doch seien noch Tickets im Umlauf, wo Probleme auftauchen könnten.»
Ich vermute mal, dass sie keine Buchungen mehr für Wagen 308 annehmen.¹ Dafür Last-Minute-Upgrades anbieten? Oder haben sie ein magisches Buchungssystem, welches die fehlenden Wagen einfach herzaubert? 🫣
¹ Wagen 308 scheint es in Richtung Wien nur im Buchungssystem gegeben zu haben…

Vast, high-N, longitudinal studies of health trends can be a truly good use the kind of data that ubiquitous personal devices can collect.
Wouldn’t it be beautiful if we lived in a world where stringent, agressively enforced privacy law let us feel unequivocally good about the collection of this kind of data, knowing it is tightly monitored, anonymized at the source, and never ever ever misused? Wouldn’t that just be wonderful?
