      In der DDR lässt es sich für den bekennenden Kommunisten Franz Walter (Lars Eidinger) gut leben. So kommt es für ihn wie gerufen, als er nach seiner Promotion an der Berliner Humboldt Universität ein Jobangebot beim Auslandsnachrichtendienst des Arbeiter- und Bauern-Staats erhält. Der Job bietet viele Vorzüge, also lässt er sich blenden und wird Teil des Geheimdienstes. Gemeinsam mit seiner Freundin Corina (Luise Heyer) genießt er fortan das angenehme Leben und findet in seinem Vorgesetzten Dirk (Devid Striesow) sogar einen neuen Freund und Mentor. Wo es in seiner Tätigkeit anfangs nur um reine Informationsbeschaffung geht, verlangen die Aufträge nach und nach immer mehr von Franz und er ist gezwungen, zu Mitteln zu greifen, die er nicht mehr mit seinem Gewissen vereinbaren kann. Gerade als er sich auf dem Höhepunkt seiner Karriere befindet, kommen ihm moralische Zweifel an seiner Tätigkeit und er will aussteigen. Doch im Netz aus Unterdrückung, Erpressung und Befragung ist er Opfer und Täter zugleich und es gibt für ihn kein Entkommen... filmstarts.de

      Ein dunkles Kapitel deutscher Geschichte, beklemmend und hochspannend inszeniert als Mischung aus Politdrama und Psychothriller – ganz weit weg von jedem Lehrstückkino. Als Verkörperungen des Kampfes Mensch vs. unmenschliches System holen Lars Eidinger und Devid Striesow das abstrakte Grauen des DDR-Überwachungsapparates so nah heran, dass es weh tut. filmstarts.de 4,5/5

      Angelehnt an eine wahre Geschichte erzählt „Nahschuss“, wie ein Mann für den DDR-Geheimdienst arbeitet und erst zu spät erkennt, worauf er sich eingelassen hat. Spannend ist dabei, wie die widersprüchliche Figur gleichzeitig Täter und Opfer ist und für seine anfängliche Naivität einen hohen Preis zu bezahlen hat. Oliver Armknecht 7/10

      In naher Zukunft: Cameron (Mahershala Ali) ist todkrank. Dem fürsorglichen Ehemann und Vater wird von seiner Ärztin (Glenn Close) ein Weg aufgezeigt, wie er seine Familie vor dem bevorstehenden Leid bewahrt: Er soll sich durch einen Klon ersetzen lassen, der wie eine Abbild seiner selbst aussieht. Während Cameron mit der Frage konfrontiert wird, ob er das Schicksal seiner Familie ändern soll oder nicht, lernt er immer mehr Wahrheiten über das Leben, den Verlust und die Liebe, als er sich jemals vorgestellt hätte. Cameron erkennt daraufhin immer mehr, was bedeutet, Opfer zu bringen und wie weit ein Mensch in der Lage ist zu gehen, um seinen Liebsten ein glücklicheres, besseres Leben zu ermöglichen... filmstarts.de

      „Schwanengesang“ handelt von Klonen todkranker Menschen, welche den Platz ihrer Originale einnehmen sollen, damit die ahnungslose Familie nicht leiden muss. Das überwiegend ruhig erzählte und schön bebilderte Science-Fiction-Drama stellt existenzielle Fragen zu Identität, aber auch moralische, welchen Preis das Glück haben darf. Das richtet sich vor allem an ein Publikum, das gerne nachdenkt, bietet aber ebenfalls emotionale Momente, die auf das Konto von Mahershala Ali gehen. Oliver Armknecht 7,5/10

      Handlung

      Ein gemütliches Häuschen auf dem englischen Lande: Der Weihnachtsbaum ist liebevoll geschmückt, das Feiertagsfestmahl opulent vorbereitet und nostalgische Evergreens klingen durch die Räumlichkeit. Als Nell (Keira Knightley), Simon (Matthew Goode) und ihr Sohn Art (Roman Griffin Davis) Verwandtschaft und Freunde in dem kleinen Cottage willkommen heißen, scheint dem perfekten Weihnachtsfest im Kreis der Liebsten rein gar nichts mehr im Wege zu stehen. An der Geschichte gibt es jedoch einen Haken, denn überleben wird niemand die Weihnachtsfeiertage...

      Rezension(en)

      Jüngstes Gericht am Heiligen Abend: Das bitterböse „Was-wäre-wenn“-Kammerspiel von Camille Griffin lässt die Generation „Fridays For Future“ unterm Tannenbaum mit der Dekadenz ihrer Eltern kollidieren – und das ist tatsächlich ein (dunkelschwarzhumoriges) Fest! (filmstarts 4/5)

      „Silent Night“ beginnt wie eine typische Weihnachtskomödie rund um eine dysfunktionale Gruppe, bevor es sich nach und nach in ein Endzeitdrama verwandelt. Die Mischung der einzelnen Bestandteile geht nicht ganz auf, da fehlte dann doch ein schlüssiges Konzept. Sehenswert ist der ungewöhnliche Mix aber, zudem mitreißend gespielt. armknoli

    1. Office of the Memoriali

      This was a tricky one to find due to when the Memoriali was set up and likely issues from translation and the possibility that the office has changed its name or has been absorbed into something else.

      At the time, Bologna had the Libri Memoriali set up where notaries had to register articles with a value of 20 Lire or more to it. The term itself likely means "memorial books" if google translate is correct.

      With this, it is likely to assume that the Office of the Memoriali was likely a place to register wills, death certificates, etc. for official legal records.

      Winthrop uses the phrase "estate of regeneracy" as a way to say to be born again and how they were godly in other words. A way of bringing in biblical ideas into them as they thought they, the Puritans were somehow living through these scriptures during their journey exploring the New World.

    1. ugust 14, 2021, rain was observed at the highest point on the Greenland Ice Sheet for several hours, and air temperatures remained above freezing for about nine hours. This was the third time in less than a decade, and the latest date in the year on record, that the National Science Foundation’s Summit Station had above-freezing temperatures and wet snow. There is no previous report of rainfall at this location (72.58°N 38.46°W), which reaches 3,216 meters (10,551 feet) in elevation. Earlier melt events in the instrumental record occurred in 1995, 2012, and 2019; prior to those events, melting is inferred from ice cores to have been absent since an event in the late 1800s

      Sketchnotes are ideas not art.

      Squiggle birds - take squiggles and give them beaks, eyes, and bird feet. (Idea apparently from Austin Kleon.)

      How you might take notes if you'd never been told how to.

      • There is no particular app or platform that is the "right" one.

      Common elements:

      • Headlines and sub headlines are common
        • Elegant text / fancy text
      • Icons
      • containers - ways of holding information together
        • this can be explicit or via white space
      • flow of information (arrows)
      • arrangements or layouts of how information is displayed
        • top to bottom, circles, columns, stream of flow of ideas
      • people
        • emotions, perhaps using emoji-like faces
      • shadows, highlights

      Icons

Cloud software distribution, namely SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS models, invaded the technology world and will not go away any time soon. At the same time, the COVID-19 pandemic increased the importance of remote work for a business to survive, as well as high profitability. That is why the demand for SaaS solutions that tend to be more cost-effective has risen markedly.

      The New York Times may be objective, but journalism is not free of emotions - regardless of whether there is visualization or not. The consumerist nature of the news requires emotional marketing to make people want to read the data. As such, they are going to include context and details that force readers to view the material with emotions. Look at the article: Las Vegas father of five dies from COVID - 'I should have gotten the damn vaccine. https://www.nydailynews.com/coronavirus/ny-covid-vaccine-dad-dies-20210731-f2jblbmtwzfhjoplxxzf6rmgje-story.html. Yes there are facts, but there is also an appeal to create an emotional response in the reader.

    1. Using multiple copies of a neuron in different places is the neural network equivalent of using functions. Because there is less to learn, the model learns more quickly and learns a better model. This technique – the technical name for it is ‘weight tying’ – is essential to the phenomenal results we’ve recently seen from deep learning.

    1. information that can be analyzed for patterns.

      I found myself wondering previously if the concept of co-citation networks could be used to instead display research questions and patterns and I believe that text-mining would be a tool to use for such a project. How exactly one would undertake such a project remains a mystery to me at this point.

    1. What it is

      Perhaps one day, when I am prepared to share my experiences with domestic violence and substance use disorder within my family, I will create such a resource

    2. A Network Visualization: A Co-Citation Network for Philosophy

      I wonder if rather than creating a co-citation network, one could create something that analyzes the information in the articles, then create a network that visualizes the current discussions on the topic. The article does say co-citation networks are a way to learn about the discussion surrounding a topic, I would be interested to see a visualization that explores something like the state of knowledge surrounding epigenetics and addictions.

    3. A Gallery of Primary Sources: Making the History of 1989

      This looks like an invaluable resource to have access to. Imagine starting a research project and being able to reach 300 relevant primary sources, introductory essays, and interviews from one consolidated website. It will be interesting to see if this type of source becomes more popular for scholarly activities in the future. Though again, the question remains, if such a resource were used in a field that is not historical- who will update and maintain these sites?

      Ironically, we tend to get easily overwhelmed by the sheer amount of tasks. What place is ok for a night stay? Which is the best camera backpack? Where to refuel?

      So today, we will figure out how a travel website works. We will also share tips on how to make your own travel website genuinely shine.

    1. “The humanities and social sciences are the emerging domains for usinghigh-performance computers,”

      Though these fields may be at the forefront of computerized projects, I believe many fields will benefit from the technologies and practices that are developing and that digital humanities projects may serve as an important resource to individuals throughout their educational lives. Do you remember being 13 and learning about war and other events from work-sheets and textbooks? How much of that do you remember? How much more meaningful could that experience have been if it consisted of an interactive timeline and map?

    1. Anyone can be a publisher on the Web and within a rather short time the focus of a broader base of interest in humanities computing became the delivery of scholarly material over the Internet. The advantages of this are enormous from the producer's point of view. The format is no longer constrained by that of a printed book. Theoretically there is almost no limit on size, and hypertext links provide a useful way of dealing with annotations, etc. The publication can be built up incrementally as and when bits of it are ready for publication. It can be made available to its audience immediately and it can easily be amended and updated.

      Isn't that the truth? With a $50 investment one can run their own website and publish whatever information they please, free of constraints associated with physical texts and the associated editing processes. While I can appreciate the benefits of the online format of information, it certainly does put more of an onus on consumers (both academic and lay-people alike) to find reputable sources of information.

    2. The technical aspects of this are fairly clear. Perhaps less clear is the management of the project, who controls or vets the annotations, and how it might all be maintained for the future.

      I think this is an interesting point. The increased ability to collaborate on projects is a benefit of going digital, however, where such projects allow commentary from the public, how are these comments managed? Who will ensure that a project does not become full of irrelevant or even false information?

    3. It is believed that the first use of computers in a disputed authorship study was carried out on the Junius Letters by Alvar Ellegard. Published in 1962, this study did not use a computer to make the word counts, but did use machine calculations which helped Ellegard get an overall picture of the vocabulary from hand counts (Ellegard 1962). What is probably the most influential computer-based authorship investigation was also carried out in the early 1960s.

      What an interesting use of technology. Authentication of works by quantification. Clearly there is overlap between digital humanities and scientific fields such as chemistry where quantifiable data is a substantial part of research.

      I work for a jewelry store and get to see all of this happening first hand. I believe this is like what we did when Covid hit and our store kept closing down and re opening. We use Shopify that is linked to our website and then I have a Shopify POS system in store that helps keep everything connected. So I believe that is an example of this.

    1. Course content headings should stand out in terms of font and position relative to other wording and outline. Use of bullets, italics and balancing does not enhance readability. Also, consistency of the columns and layout for the table are off, causing inconsistency and confusion due to improper alignments and proportion lacking overall for the contents table and outline. Topic headers are of the same color, value, shape and form for calling out new and important categories, where they should have different shape and form as well as alignment. Additional emphasis could be added to grading section to call out evaluative criteria for this are. Movement from section to section should be consistent with formatting and shapes as well as alignments that guide reader and students strategically. Hyperlinks could be properly formatted to allow for seamless movement through syllabus allowing for better connectivity and fluidity. More strategic use of images that guide learner in direction of necessary materials and reading texts associated with the class, which also allow for a variety and contrast between themes and required materials.

    1. Instead of reading for content or to better understand the ideas in the writing (which you will automatically do to some degree anyway), you are trying to understand how the piece of writing was put together by the author and what you can learn about writing by reading a particular text.

      The ability to understand Historical events requires a different skill set than the ability to put those understandings into words. historical study is saddled with the expectation of years of compiling data and research. To even pursue higher education it is required to do so. Learning how other Historians and individuals put their thoughts and research into an essay or collection is one of the most important weapons in a Historians arsenal.

    2. As a college student, you must be ready to explore and examine a wide range of ideas, whether you agree with them or not.

      This is my biggest take away from this article. Before understanding strategy, theory, or study one has to be able to take in and understand multiple objective points of truth. Our one understanding of an event or idea is just one of billions. To fully embrace other ideas even if they go against our very moral fiber is the most important tool any person can learn. It is not something that can be taught in school or through reading but in practicum and years of conscious effort and even that may not be enough.

    3. Review

      Some of my classmates have already highlighted this particular strategy but I feel it bears repeating. Reviewing not only helps to ensure you have a fresh understanding but also to make certain that an individual is confident in their study. If we also span a few years, revisiting old work and research can help put into perspective how our views have changed and the growth we've certainly achieved. Putting points together from two different times is a fantastic way to chart and understand growth from a personal and Historical perpective.

    4. . This means that the goal of the paper is to research a topic and develop an argument about it using evidence and facts to support your position.

      Argumentative style research and discussion helps to create an environment of discussion. By researching a topic through your own means and building an objective opinion it expands the avenues for how History can be interpreted. but more than that it allows researchers the means to justify and have discourse on their varying perspectives.

    5. Web sites and blogs can be a source of insight and information, but not all are useful as academic resources.

      The most important thing I believe for Historical study learning how to identify reputable sources for reference. Looking towards an authors experience on the subject, the domain of the website, and even if the material has been referenced elsewhere can help determining the validity of the material.

    1. How does the armed conflict in Guatemala compare with other wars?

      Here the author is showing exactly the questions he hopes to find answers to. These listed questions enable us to understand his motive and purpose for the layout of this article. Similarly I am looking for what his main purpose is in conveying the information and how best to look at it. Why did he write this? What does the information relate to? how can I interpret and utilize this research myself? these are my biggest questions and goals in tandem with understanding his own.

    2. (pp. , )

      The article utilizes annotations like these to directly link to articles and passages that the author used throughout. However more importantly the author uses dates throughout the writing to build not only physical reference points for curious users but to also enable the audience the ability to have a starting point for their own desired study.

    3. the geographical review

      The article is laid out in segments, distinguished by headers. This breaks up the information into easy to comprehend bursts that shift the focus onto new topics.

    4. As sick-ening as they are incriminating, the teeming contents of the ahpn are unlikely,given the impunity that prevails in Guatemala, to bring little more than tokenjustice to the perpetrators of among the most heinous abuses of human rights in allof Latin America.

      There seems to be more emphasis on building a foundation for explaining the history predating this event than the construction of an explicit argument. The piece acts more like a conduit with reference and definitions to help readers understand the context of preexisting organizations and events. This in turns enables us to understand the event more. By forgoing an overall argument we are instead able to better understand the grotesque nature of the themes of the event and form a base realization of its ramifications. Not all historical articles need to be argumentative, teaching is just if not more effective.

    1. Identify key distinctions. Scholars often make important conceptual distinctions in their work.

      This entire point right here from my personal opinion may be the most important in understanding History. The distinctions of ideas and experiences is what makes Historical Study so rewarding and complicated. Different viewpoints on the same event can create a whole picture and build a narrative inclusive to as many sides as possible. The variation is what creates depth of study and builds a base for further research.

    2. you must become what one author calls a “predatory” reader. That is, you must learn to quickly determine the important parts of the scholarly material you read

      This piece may be the single most critical point take away from the article. It states the overall message trying to be conveyed as well as sets up groundwork for further exploration. In study of any topic there is an abundance of information, deciphering and cross referencing that material is the objective purpose of historians. In order to understand and compile that information one has to be able to study quickly and efficiently past and new works. The steps that follow this statement are building upon its base claim.

    3. They also tell you what the paragraph that follows will be about.

      THE most valuable piece information,because if there is no other pieces of good evidence you can look back at the topic sentence.

    4. Identify “signposts.” 

      Having the knowledge of the basic foundation of literature and composition. Knowing the vocabulary and applying it to the subjects.

    5. Think pragmatically. 

      making sure to have a realistic mindset

    6. you must become what one author calls a “predatory” reader. That is, you must learn to quickly determine the important parts of the scholarly material you read

      You have to learn how to become a more assertive, dedicated reader that knows how to handle/ comprehend the material. While also learning to prioritize what is most important

    7. Finally

      "Predatory" reading makes me think of building a house. You have to get the foundation (argument?), build the frame (topic sentences and "signposts"), and add the walls, roof, ect. (the rest of the written work). After you've built your house, you should inspect it (reread) to prepare for sale.

    8. Signposts

      A good signpost should let us know where we are going and help us find our place when rereading.

    9. argument

      "Argument"-this is our main target.

    10. What does it “do” for the author’s argument?

      Ask your "why?" (Why does this matter? Why was this included?) and your "What?" (What is the writer's goal? What is the main take away here?)

    11. you must learn to quickly determine the important parts of the scholarly material you read

      Reading for pleasure gives us the time to take the material in as thoroughly as we'd like. "Predatory" reading of scholarly works requires us to select our target and take firm hold of it.

    12. Reading scholarly material requires a new set of skills.

      The best way for comprehending scholarly works is to understand the meaning of the work that you're reading and to look at all different angles.

    13. Think pragmatically.

      Reading for pleasure is a lot simpler than reading nonfiction books because when reading for pleasure, it would typically be a fiction story and those are always one path of reading. But when reading nonfiction or scholarly books, it's only taken form that persons point of view, even though there are probably a bunch other angles you could look at it through.
