Discrimination handling in Germany (4)

Section 4: How to handle cases in general

In general, you need to report cases of discrimination or hate-speech to the police, always with some proof or witness. If you see it on YouTube, report to the police, too.

If someone publically say discrimination, you can sue the person and the Staatsanwaltschaft (prosecutor) must follow [1].

The following citation comes from Wikipedia's ``Gleichstellung von Frau und Mann auf kommunaler Ebene, Beispiel gemäß NRW-Gemeindeordnung (Equality between women and men at the local level, in accordance with Example NRW (North Rhine-Westphalia) Municipal Code) [2].''
Die Verwirklichung der Verfassungsaufgabe der Gleichberechtigung von Frau und Mann ist auch eine Aufgabe der Städte und Gemeinden. Zur Wahrnehmung dieser Aufgabe kann die Kommune Gleichstellungsbeauftragte bestellen. Mit dieser Änderung der Gemeindeordnung wurden die Kommunen in Nordrhein-Westfalen 1984 aufgerufen, zur Umsetzung dieses Verfassungsauftrages in eigener Verantwortung kommunale Gleichstellungsbeauftragte zu bestellen. Seit der Novellierung der Kommunalverfassung NRW im Oktober 1994 sind alle Gemeinden mit mehr als 10.000 Einwohner sowie alle Kreise verpflichtet, hauptamtliche Gleichstellungsbeauftragte zu bestellen. ...
The following is my translation to English from German above.
The realization of the constitutional task of equality between women and men is also a mission of the cities and municipalities. To perform this task, the municipality can hire equal opportunity officers. With this change, the municipal office was called by the municipalities in North Rhine-Westphalia in 1984, to implement this constitutional mandate with their own responsibility, municipalities hired municipal equal opportunities officers. After the amendment of the municipal constitution of NRW in October 1994, all municipalities which have more than 10,000 inhabitants and all related parties are obliged to hire a full-time equal opportunity officer. ...
This means at least one equal opportunity officer should be hired in the city more than 10,000 people.

Why A^{T}A is invertible? (2) Linear Algebra

Why A^{T}A has the inverse Let me explain why A^{T}A has the inverse, if the columns of A are independent. First, if a matrix is n by n, and all the columns are independent, then this is a square full rank matrix. Therefore, there is the inverse. So, the problem is when A is a m by n, rectangle matrix.  Strang's explanation is based on null space. Null space and column space are the fundamental of the linear algebra. This explanation is simple and clear. However, when I was a University student, I did not recall the explanation of the null space in my linear algebra class. Maybe I was careless. I regret that... Explanation based on null space This explanation is based on Strang's book. Column space and null space are the main characters. Let's start with this explanation. Assume  x  where x is in the null space of A .  The matrices ( A^{T} A ) and A share the null space as the following: This means, if x is in the null space of A , x is also in the null spa

Gauss's quote for positive, negative, and imaginary number

Recently I watched the following great videos about imaginary numbers by Welch Labs. https://youtu.be/T647CGsuOVU?list=PLiaHhY2iBX9g6KIvZ_703G3KJXapKkNaF I like this article about naming of math by Kalid Azad. https://betterexplained.com/articles/learning-tip-idea-name/ Both articles mentioned about Gauss, who suggested to use other names of positive, negative, and imaginary numbers. Gauss wrote these names are wrong and that is one of the reason people didn't get why negative times negative is positive, or, pure positive imaginary times pure positive imaginary is negative real number. I made a few videos about explaining why -1 * -1 = +1, too. Explanation: why -1 * -1 = +1 by pattern https://youtu.be/uD7JRdAzKP8 Explanation: why -1 * -1 = +1 by climbing a mountain https://youtu.be/uD7JRdAzKP8 But actually Gauss's insight is much powerful. The original is in the Gauß, Werke, Bd. 2, S. 178 . Hätte man +1, -1, √-1) nicht positiv, negative, imaginäre (oder gar um

Why parallelogram area is |ad-bc|?

Here is my question. The area of parallelogram is the difference of these two rectangles (red rectangle - blue rectangle). This is not intuitive for me. If you also think it is not so intuitive, you might interested in my slides. I try to explain this for hight school students. Slides:  A bit intuitive (for me) explanation of area of parallelogram  (to my site, external link) .
