Germans: There is electricity coming in and going out. What should we call it? In and out? Too easy, let's go with 1.8.0 and 2.8.0. The end user can easily remember that *not*.
🆕 How does workforce diversity evolve when labor demand rises sharply, but no targeted diversity policy is in place? Our DP (with my fabulous co-authors @barbaraboelmann.bsky.social, @lenajanys.bsky.social & Luisa Santiago Wolf) addresses this question using a natural experiment. Thread 👇 (1/n)

How come that we have detailed knowledge of all members of the #NSDAP? Because on April 18th, 1945, the production boss of a paper mill near Munich, Hanns Huber, hid the membership documents instead of destroying them, as the Nazi commanders had told him to do.
