Florian, from the Ulmer Nest team, clarified that, strictly speaking, they didn’t create the project at all—someone else did. “We initially created sort of a ‘think tank’/’creative lab’ project as a team here in Ulm with the (maybe a little bit bold) idea that everyone can drop off their respective problem, whatever it may be, for us to solve it—basically we wanted to challenge ourselves a little bit, being a so far decently successful interdisciplinary team of six designers and technologists,” he explained.
“Before that, we chose some experts whose task was to decide which of the submitted problems we actually would have to work on, for 48 hours each. And then, the city of Ulm basically submitted their ‘problem’ which was something along the lines of, ‘We’ve got homeless people who can’t go to shelters, and we don’t want them to freeze to death—can you do something about this?’ And our experts selected this as a task for us to work on.”
As much as one would wish that all homeless were homeless because no one ever told them about benefits of dutiful employment, reality is as such that there are broken people out there and they will be risking grievous injury nightly during winter months.
my god are you lot monsters ... is that all americans or just the anti socialism ?
nope, not all USA citizens feel this way.
under socialism ppl just starve to death and die in the streets nobody cares,watch interviews with north korean defectors then you know what socialism is,germany is a capitalist country with social programs like the usa but also like the usa not so effective as we can see theres still homeless there
Statism - the most dangerous religion in existence.
Everything run by the state is way too expensive and underperforming
because of lack of competition.
Look at the Postal service - and you want to have more of that?!?
Edit: Commiefornia is good to the homeless, Commiefornyaya so good to the homeless...

nice job, German gov.
one can only wonder why ppl aren't treated equally - the ones that get food and shelter after speaking the magic word 'asylum' - and the ones that don't: the natives.
