The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.

Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.

But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

Remember this.

The FPbase spectra viewer just had it's biggest software refactor in 6 years. It *should* be largely invisible to the end user (hopefully just faster and less buggy). Please let me know if you find any issues as you use it!

On my last day at @flyneuro.bsky.social I am happy to share my latest paper about the DN1a clock neurons and their central role within the clock network. :)

I am grateful for the nice time I had here in Würzburg and looking forward to new adventures in Okayama and Münster in the next years!

Hermann Hesse Todestag +09.08.1962

"Der Steppenwolf" war Mitte der 80er meine erste Schullektüre und hat mich nachhaltig beeinflusst.

Aus der heutigen Perspektive waren es vor allem die Schullektüren, die mir persönlich den Zugang zur Literatur eröffnet haben.

Weimer argumentiert, dass er bevormundend empfundenen Sprachgebräuchen mit bevormundenen Sprachverboten entgegnet um die Vielfalt der Sprachkultur zu bewahren. Er hätte auch einfach sagen können dass er als alter weißer Mann nicht damit klarkommt, dass Sprache anders als männlich gelesen werden kann
