What a page turner… Fritz Stern’s 1977 book on Bismarck and Bleichröder (“good old” diplomatic history, enriched with Bismarck’s personal banker‘s correspondence). 💷🧳

AI-assisted writing in 1716. #skystorians
A man is sitting at a desk, writing a book with a quill. He is not looking at the page. A godly book, illuminated, is also present in the copperplate print of 1716. The godly message of the flying book is in German and from the Bible: Im Anfang war das Wort Joh:1 v:1". A light beam from the holy book to the yet blank page can also be seen with the words inscribed: „Dein Wort ist ein Licht auf meinem Wege Ps. 119 v. 105“. So, basically, god is the textual inspiration of the author's work. It looks like he is waiting an artificial hallucination in 1716. The source: https://portraits.hab.de/werk/17512/mirador

If confirmed, this is great news, offering thousands of young people in the UK and EU the life-changing opportunity to immerse in the language and culture of another country by studying there. Would make good a highly damaging consequence of Brexit. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Belgen zijn gedisciplineerde spaarders, maar de rente van spaarrekeningen beschermt niet langer tegen de inflatie. Beleggen in ETF's is het beste alternatief, maar 48 procent van de Belgen heeft er nog nooit van gehoord. Zo belegt u eenvoudig, ook als u weinig tijd of goesting hebt.
