The gender wars of household chores: a feminist comic
"The French comic artist Emma illustrates the concept of the ‘mental load’. When a man expects his partner to ask him to do things, he is viewing her as the manager of their household chores".

‘A Million Random Digits’ Was a Number-Cruncher’s Bible. Now One Has Exposed Flaws in the Disorder.
"A 1955 Rand Corp. book had a reputation as the go-to source for figures used by pollsters, analysts, researchers; engineer Gary Briggs has ruined it".
Auf twitter kann man den Artikel lesen, aber im Brauser muß man sich einloggen. Komisch.

Retaining in the condition of east-west emigration.
"Polish sociologist, gardener, and immigrant Anna Zawadzka explores the convoluted ties between work and personal life in late capitalism, between the ivory tower of academia and the harsh conditions of groundskeeping, by critically focusing on the idealization and pathologization of labour."

Carbon offsets burning
"In the middle of a record fire season on the US West Coast, the Lionshead Fire in Oregon burned through one of the largest forest carbon offset projects participating in California’s carbon market. Beyond the tragic effects on local communities and hazardous regional air quality, the expected carbon losses from this fire illustrate how California’s approach of using forests to mitigate climate change may need re-evaluation."

covid-corona-blog #37: Nachtrag
diegolego, 02:34h
Hier herrscht Münzenknappheit. Wir brachen Quaters für die Waschmaschine. Das scheint mit der Pandemie zusammenzuhängen: "A penny pinch: How America fell into a great coin shortage - For one more glimpse at these wild times, people might look in their car cup holders, wallets and piggy banks that are driving the nation's great coin debacle".
Haltet durch!
siehe auch: #36
Nachtrag: Bei der Bank gab es letztes mal jedenfalls nur eine Rolle a 10USD. Das reicht für 5x waschen. Das Problem sind aber auch die Waschmaschinen selbst. Wir finden, daß die die von oben beladen werden und bei denen die Rotationsachse senkrecht steht, einfach nicht so gut waschen.
Nachtrag (8.9.2020): Telepolis-Artikel lasse ich normalerweise von Tilly-Billy prüfen, aber der hat natürlich auch keine Zeit. Deswegen direkt:
Auf Epidemien folgen Unruhen und Aufstände
"Italienische Politologen haben historische Epidemien untersucht und gehen davon aus, dass auch nach der Corona-Pandemie die politische Instabilität stark zunehmen wird"

Hier noch ein Hinweis auf ein Programm zur Verwaltung von wissenschaftlicher Literatur: zotero
"Zotero ... is a free and open-source reference management software to manage bibliographic data and related research materials ... . Notable features include web browser integration, online syncing, generation of in-text citations, footnotes, and bibliographies, as well as integration with the word processors Microsoft Word, LibreOffice Writer, and Google Docs."
Scheinbar kann es auch bibtex.

Probability and consequences of living inside a computer simulation
"The question of whether or not we are living inside a computer simulation has inspired a large amount of fiction ... but, unsurprisingly, not much serious research. Among the more reasonable and quantitative attempts, let us mention Nick Bostrom's simulation argument [3]: if societies do not tend to self-destruct before acquiring the technology necessary to the exploitation of a significant fraction of the computing power inherently permitted by the laws of physics, our probability of living inside a simulation approaches unity. ..."
