Meckern ist Volkssport. Wir meckern über das Wetter, die Chefs, die Bahn und die Politik. Was soll das eigentlich? Hat das Meckern eine wichtige Funktion für uns als Menschen und Gesellschaft - oder ist es einfach nur nerviger Ballast?

Alles nur gefaked? Über Vortäuschung und Manipulation bei psychischen Beschwerden In dieser kontroversen Folge widmen sich Andreas und Werner einem heiklen, aber wichtigen Thema in der psychologischen Praxis: Der bewussten oder unbewussten Verzerrung von Krankheitssymptomen. Wie lässt sich zwischen echtem Leiden und übertriebener Darstellung unterscheiden? Wann werden Beschwerden heruntergespielt, wann überbetont? Die beiden Hosts beleuchten die verschiedenen Facetten dieses komplexen Phänomens - von der Simulation nicht vorhandener Symptome bis hin zur Bagatellisierung ernsthafter Probleme. Sie diskutieren, warum Menschen ihre Beschwerden manchmal verzerrt darstellen und welche Beweggründe dahinterstecken können. Dabei wird deutlich: Nicht jede Übertreibung ist bewusste Täuschung, und nicht jedes Herunterspielen ist mangelnde Krankheitseinsicht. Besonders spannend wird es, wenn die beiden ihre praktischen Erfahrungen teilen: Welche diagnostischen Instrumente und Beobachtungsmethoden helfen bei der Einschätzung? Wie können Diskrepanzen im Verhalten erkannt werden? Und welche Rolle spielen standardisierte Beschwerdevalidierungstests? Eine aufschlussreiche Episode für Fachleute und Interessierte, die zeigt, wie komplex die Unterscheidung zwischen authentischen und verzerrten Symptomdarstellungen sein kann - und warum eine sorgfältige Diagnostik so wichtig ist.

Stephen Wolfram answers questions from his viewers about the history of science and technology as part of an unscripted livestream series, also available on YouTube here: https://wolfr.am/youtube-sw-qa Questions include: Can you tell us anything about the history of quantum mechanics? - What's the craziest historical debate between physicists about quantum theory? - Thoughts on extending Kirchhoff's blackbody experiments to astronomical bodies? - Was the Copenhagen interpretation a mistake, in regard to how paradoxical results were "glossed over"? - Can you tell us more about Schrödinger's cat? What is actually happening? - Aren't zero-point fluctuations an absolute reference frame and therefore a fatal blow to relativity? - Did Feynman's work on quantum electrodynamics completely change the game, or was it just building on others? - What do you think about Wheeler's participatory universe idea? - You got to meet all these neat people Mr. W! It's nice to hear your stories about meeting them.
Christopher Kirchhoff, co-author of “Unit X: How the Pentagon and Silicon Valley are Transforming the Future of War,” and a founding figure of the Pentagon's Defense Innovation Unit (DIU), joins host Tammy Haddad to explore the military's race to integrate cutting-edge technology. From key breakthroughs in AI and autonomous systems to the hurdles of bureaucracy and global tech rivalry, Kirchhoff delivers an important history lesson on defense technology and an insider's perspective on the dangers ahead. He discusses his work on AI safety, and offers analysis of Anthropic, OpenAI, and all the frontier labs.
War is never pretty, but its privatized high tech future dominated by companies like Palintir and SpaceX is particularly chilling. In Unit X, their FT shortlisted best business book of the year, Raj M. Shah and Christopher Kirchhoff's explain how the Pentagon and Silicon Valley are transforming the future of war with the creation of a new kind of military-digital complex. As Shah and Kirchhoff explain, Unit X is the elite unit within the Pentagon known as the Defense Innovation Unit which is now the military bridge between Silicon Valley and the Federal government. And with Elon Musk's deregulatory zeal driving the upcoming Trump administration, expect to see closer and closer cooperation between the Pentagon and cutting edge AI and biotech tech companies. Raj M. Shah is a serial technology entrepreneur, venture capitalist, and former director of the Pentagon's Defense Innovation Unit. He is currently the managing partner of Shield Capital, an investment firm focused on technologies at the nexus of commercial and national security applications. He started his career as an F-16 pilot in the Air National Guard and continues to serve part time. He obtained an AB degree from Princeton University and an MBA from the University of Pennsylvania.Christopher Kirchhoff, an expert in emerging technology, helped create the Defense Innovation Unit, which he continues to advise. During the Obama administration, he was the director of strategic planning for the National Security Council and senior civilian adviser to the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Chris obtained an AB degree from Harvard College and a PhD in social and political sciences from Cambridge University.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators.

If the war against Ukraine has highlighted any truth, it is that the defense industrial bases of the United States and Europe are woefully underequipped for the demands of high-intensity conventional warfare. The United States was and remains the only country that retained the kinds of stockpiles necessary to support Ukraine's defense and future offense, and it faces competing demands for those declining inventories. Yet, for a country with a nearly $900 billion budget, it seems unable to get what it needs, when it needs it, and at a scale necessary for what it anticipates as future conflicts, not the least of which is with China over Taiwan. The issue is, fundamentally, one of acquisition and procurement. The speed and urgency that drives the bureaucracy of the Department of Defense has not kept pace with the speed of innovation that drives Silicon Valley. In the age of the iPhone the Pentagon is using the Blackberry, at best (and not a late generation one, at that). There are shoots of growth through the concrete of the military's purchasing systems. Groups like the Defense Innovation Unit (; formerly known as the Defense Innovation Unit - Experimental or DIUx) have sought to bridge the gap between Washington and Silicon Valley. Authors Raj M. Shah and Christopher Kirchhoff, the former director of DIU and a driver of its creation, respectively, recount the creation of the Unit, its struggles, and its successes in the aptly titled book "". It would seem to be a tall order, make Pentagon acquisition a thrilling read, but Shah and Kirchhoff manage to pull it off and rather well. Filled with anecdotes of how the supposedly technologically cutting-edge services of the American armed forces operated in a surprisingly analogue manner, the authors tell the story of how DIU and others sought to match the warfighters' needs with Silicon Valley's innovations."Unit X" rightly focuses on the challenges of rapid innovation and rapid ingestion of new technologies. This is something for which the Pentagon, as the authors demonstrate, is not designed. "Unit X" is not a story of nifty new technologies alone. It is really about the challenge of how the United States stays ahead of China, the pacing threat in strategic competition. Here, the Chinese Communist Party enjoys considerable competitive systemic advantages. A vertically integrated authoritarian-capitalist system, Beijing can better direct resources - human or capital - with rapid efficiency and arguably fewer bureaucratic hurdles. China's aggressive corporate and military espionage campaigns have allowed it to leapfrog generations of innovation and trial and error. More alarmingly, the gap between theft and indigenous innovation is rapidly closing, with China able to develop more novel, domestic technologies at a greater rate than once anticipated. The authors close "Unit X" by focusing on Ukraine (as is de rigueur today), which for many is seen as the standard-bearer for technological innovation, testing, and deployment. Senior military leaders on both sides of the Atlantic look to Ukraine wistfully, as a model of how they wish they could innovate and ingest new technologies - they want the war-time acquisition system without the war. That last part is key - in the absence of a clear driver of change, change is not forthcoming. The problem is Ukraine is not the model they often think it is - that rapid adoption of new technologies is by consequence, not design. Those impressive and haunting first-person-video drones are used at such rates due to insufficient quantities of conventional artillery (which the United States and Europe are still failing to deliver). Those drone videos are also only the successful strikes. The ratio of failure to success decidedly favors the former over the latter, especially as Russian electronic warfare improves. Ukraine's naval successes are deeply impressive, but miss key that when included make the lessons of the Black Sea unapplicable to other thea...

In an era when America's chief rival, China, has ordered that all commercial firms within its borders make their research and technology available for military exploitation, strengthening the relationship between Washington and Silicon Valley is an urgent necessity, argue Raj Shah and Christopher Kirchhoff. They come to Commonwealth Club World Affairs to offer an inside look at an elite unit within the Pentagon—the Defense Innovation Unit, also known as Unit X—whose mission is to bring Silicon Valley's cutting-edge technology to America's military. Shah is a technology entrepreneur, venture capitalist and former director of the Defense Innovation Unit; Kirchhoff is the former director of strategic planning for the National Security Council under President Obama and is the co-creator of the Defense Innovation Unit. Until recently, the Pentagon was known for its uncomfortable relationship with Silicon Valley and for slow-moving processes that acted as a brake on innovation. Unit X was specifically designed as a bridge to Valley technologists that would accelerate bringing state of the art software and hardware to the battle space. Given authority to cut through red tape and function almost as a venture capital firm, Shah, Kirchhoff, and others in the Unit who came after were tasked particularly with meeting immediate military needs with technology from Valley startups rather than from so-called “primes”—behemoth companies like Lockheed, Raytheon, and Boeing. A vast and largely unseen transformation of how war is fought as profound as the invention of gunpowder or advent of the nuclear age is occurring. Flying cars that can land like helicopters, artificial intelligence-powered drones that can fly into buildings and map their interiors, microsatellites that can see through clouds and monitor rogue missile sites—all these and more are becoming part of America's DIU-fast-tracked arsenal.

"History is telling us that we're likely to get some new discoveries from introducing seismic into our mixture. Nobody understands mineral deposits like the geoscientists who work on them day in, day out." Dr. Heather Schijns explores the groundbreaking use of hard rock seismic data in mineral exploration with insights from one of the most popular papers at IMAGE 2023. OVERVIEW > The transformative impact of seismic data in identifying deeper mineral deposits and reducing exploration risks > The successful application of advanced processing techniques, like full waveform inversion and Kirchhoff pre-stack depth migration, on the Olympic Dam IOCG deposit > The counterintuitive cost benefits of seismic exploration as mining ventures deeper > The strategic approach to de-risking 3D seismic surveys for business stakeholders > The importance of seismic interpretation in effective mineral exploration and the evolving role of geoscientists in this domain > The potential for seismic methods to enhance safety and reduce high-risk activities in mining Host Andrew Geary and Heather Schijns discuss her expanded abstract, "Sparse 3D seismic survey over the Olympic Dam IOCG deposit." This episode delves into why now is the perfect time for the mining industry to embrace seismic methods, especially as the search for base metal resources deepens and conventional geophysical approaches face limitations. Listeners will be captivated by the journey from a sparse 3D seismic survey to a comprehensive understanding of the Olympic Dam deposit and how this approach paves the way for future exploration strategies. The episode also tackles the critical business aspect of seismic exploration, urging listeners to consider the value and risk reduction seismic data can provide.

This episode of MCAT Basics covers the world of circuits. We will explore electrical circuits and their fundamental principles. We'll start with dissecting the essential parameters that form the backbone of circuits: voltage, current, resistance, and power. These are the building blocks upon which all circuit dynamics are based. Next, we'll explore a variety of circuit elements, from resistors to batteries, capacitors, and switches. Each of these components plays a vital role in shaping the behavior of circuits and understanding their functionality. Finally, we'll delve into Ohm's Law and Kirchhoff's Law, two fundamental principles that govern circuit behavior. By grasping these laws, you'll gain essential insights into how circuits operate and how to analyze their dynamics effectively. Visit MedSchoolCoach.com for more help with the MCAT.

Bestsellerautor Bodo Kirchhoff ist überzeugt, Schriftsteller sein könne man nur in manchen Momenten, wenn man etwas Gutes schreibe. Das sind dann aber auch die einsamen, stillen Momente am Schreibtisch, in denen Sehnsüchte, Fantasien ausgelebt und Innenleben der Figuren ausgestaltet werden können. In seinem neuen Roman "Seit er sein Leben mit einem Tier teilt" durchlebt er diese Momente mit dem Protagonisten L.A. Schongauer. Ein in die Jahre gekommener Kleindarsteller aus Hollywood, der sich nach dem Unfalltod seiner Frau mit seiner geliebten Hündin Ascha an den Gardasee zurückgezogen hat. "Die Fehler, die Schongauer in seinem Leben gemacht hat, habe ich in anderer Weise auch gemacht", erzählt Bodo Kirchhoff im Gespräch mit Jürgen Deppe. "Seit er sein Leben mit einem Tier teilt" ist ein Roman über das Verhältnis von Mensch und Hund, Mann und Frau, Freund und Feind, Alt und Jung, Schmerz und Glück, über Einsamkeit, über Schuld und Scham. Bodo Kirchhoff stellt sich den großen Fragen des Lebens, lotet Grenzen aus, immer auf der Suche nach der richtigen Sprache und dem treffenden Ton, für ihn bis heute eine herausfordernde Motivation fürs Schreiben.

From "A Minute for Caregivers- When Every Day Feels Like Monday" An Instrument of Peace Walter Kirchhoff stepped into history on Christmas Eve in 1914 when the opera singer/German officer sang “Silent Night” in both English and German on the battlefields of World War I. On a “beautiful moonlit night, frost on the ground,” Kirchhoff's voice rose from the trenches—and touched battle-hardened soldiers from Belgium, France, Germany, and England. The moment's poignancy spurred other soldiers to sing while temporarily laying down arms. Incredulously, the battlefield became festive as soldiers tentatively walked toward one another and extended Christmas greetings. Despite Pope Benedict XV's earlier plea for a Christmas truce, the fighting continued until soldiers chose to sing rather than shoot. More than likely, Kirchhoff had no idea of the resulting impact of his voice echoing over the scarred landscape; he followed his heart and honored the moment. Sadly, the truce was temporary. Yet, history doesn't record the first soldier to resume firing; it only remembers the one who first sang of peace, reverence, and the meaning of Christmas. The teachable moment extends today. Families remain filled with conflict over caregiving challenges—many of which may erupt at Christmas gatherings. Yet the precedent stands: in the darkest of times, one voice lifted heavenward can calm a battlefield. If enough follow Kirchhoff's example, we might not only witness a truce—we may also have peace. Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love. —St. Francis of Assisi Merry Christmas from Peter and Gracie Rosenberger

En este decimosexto programa de "Obsesión por el Cielo: Punto Focal" hablamos de la técnica observacional de la espectroscopía en general, y cómo la utilizamos en la astronomía en particular para conocer el Universo sin tener que traer muestras de los objetos estudiados ni transladarnos hasta donde se encuentran. Por medio de la espectroscopía podemos enterarnos de la composición química de los objetos celestes así como las condiciones que prevalecen en ellos tales como temperatura, presión, abundancia, distancia, velocidad, etc. Iniciamos el probrama con un poco de historia (Newton, Herschel, Fraunhofer, Kirchhoff) y explicaciones básicas de cómo descubrimos el espectro electromagnético y cómo lo asociamos con la mecánica cuántica para conocer la relación entre la materia y la forma en que absorbe y emite radiación elecromagnética. Continuamos platicando sobre los instrumentos utilizados para separar la luz en sus distintas longitudes de onda y estudiarlas individualmente. Durante el programa tambien damos ejemplos y experiencias personales de casos en donde aprendemos sobre el Universo utilizando esta técnica.

The current pricing proposal from FieldTurf for the Westerly High School Stadium Field is $1,385,000. The School Committee committed $500,000 for turf fields and the Town Council matched this commitment for a total commitment of $1,000,000. The excess unassigned fund balance is $1,869,317, with an anticipated surplus of $633,720. Kirchhoff recommended the committee use up to $374,000 of committed maintenance funds for the stadium field, plus $11,000 of the $50,000 that was set aside for field design services. The design contract total was $39,000, she said. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/canwekeepitreal/message

The men of the Norgan System had a tough decision to make concerning the planet in A93. Yet there was no hesitation. Can you blame them? Day of Wrath by Bjarne Kirchhoff... that's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode.As we begin our 2nd year of The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast we do so with incredible momentum. More people around the world are listening to us in more countries than ever before. We thank you for that, you are sharing the podcast on social media which helps us attract even more listeners. Thank you.And we're getting more emails and comments too. This comes to us from a country where we are experiencing tremendous growth.“Greetings from Israel,I am a candid listener to the podcast, and I wish to congratulate the great narrator with his acting skills.I greatly enjoy the stories' introductions about the authors and their life. I suggest the narrator indicate in the introduction the reason for picking that specific story from the others.Especially I enjoy stories that I find relevant/correlate to our times. My favorite is #22 Paradise Planet by Richard S. Shaver. I find it corresponding with the pandemic/cure we had last year. And #016: Sales Pitch by Philip K. Dick which corresponds with the coming AI technology.Blessings and greetings. Dudi”Send us an email scott@lostscifi.comThank you Dudi for your email and your kind thoughtful comments. I'd love to say that there's a grand plan behind the selection of one story over another but that isn't typically the case. Oftentimes I get a request for a certain story or author. One of the reasons I started narrating these stories is that many of them had never been available as audiobooks. Being a sci-fi fan, I want to change that so everyone can enjoy them. When I found today's story and started doing research, I could find nothing else written by Bjarne Kirchhoff. In fact, I couldn't find out anything about Bjarne Kirchhoff. And that is the reason I narrated it and the reason it's on podcast.Starting on page 69, from Planet Stories magazine in the summer of 1948, Day of Wrath by Bjarne Kirchhoff…Next week on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, a Science Fiction Grand Master returns… The first great rocket flight into space, bearing intrepid pioneers to the Moon. The world's ecstasy flared into red mob-hate when President Stanley canceled the flight. How did he get that way? Rocket Summer by Ray Bradbury.That's next week on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode.
