When I was 12 learning C from a programmer friend

“This is too complicated”

“Why does it matter if it’s complicated?”

Yeah actually, I don’t have a reason to feel threatened by complicated things. There is no cost to tiring your brain, no cost to doing something tedious

You do realize people have the ability to not act upon every urge right

So who cares? You’ve got a brain for a reason

I’d be surprised because countries like Switzerland still have a big skew in their voters demographics

It wouldn’t change anything

Have you seen how old the average voter is?

He’s pushed pseudoscience from ice baths to loonie egypt bullcrap to just about all of the facebook posts your grandpa shares around with no critical thinking at all, conspiracy theories, discouraged young people from getting the vaccine, given a blank check of a platform with no opposition or fact checking to climate skepticism, transgender hate in sports, made LOTS of racist comments that just keep popping up, liberal use of the n word, fearmongering some slippery slopes about “the wokes”

Long way to avoid saying all of the important things

I’d rather they make 4 stories tall, 4m by 4m, modern rows of apartments rented for free, with good lighting, plenty of outlets and furnished with bedbug resistant beds. One dude per dwelling, personal shower and toilets, and a door that locks. The prison basics with a coat of paint, respect and decency.

So that the homeless just get the issue of having a roof over their head out their mind, and have a fixed address, and the ability to keep possessions for good

How many tenants do you know wish they could buy vs needed to rent because they won’t stay long?

Regionalism is a word in France

Imagine if they distributed one of those that contained a strange bind syscall somewhere with a reverse shell.

Why do I feel like you’d be leaving this platform if your feed was 90% german?

?? We can buy regular vapes in France so this is good

Nope! No AGI anywhere yet

What you gonna repair it for? It’s not like it’s gonna work

It’s unusual to see more than 3 weeks where I’ve worked too but it’s more so because of people’s travel habits and not wanting to be out of vacation days the rest of the year

I’d get shock and a comment but yeah it could go through

Places I’ve been to follow the 2-1 rule, try to ask two days in advance for 1 day off

It wasn’t even a bad salary beforehand, it was way above average for my city and I was able to save and invest about 40% of my paycheck, now it’s almost as if all I do is saving since my living expenses are such a small part of the salary

I thought 2.5 meant 2.5 when going in, but it’s more like an 5x on disposable income so it feels completely different

There’s a lot of stuff in defense contracts that aren’t killing people in europe

Procurement, borders, visas, terrorism intel, …

I just make very boring CRUD software for international agencies to make national services interoperate better

It’s only defense related because it necessarily has sensitive strategic information transitting through our databases

I got a new job that has no remote possibilities because we run a defense SaaS thing that’s cut off from the internet, so, a real reason for it

I’m paid 2.5x my old wage for it and everyone keeps leaving despite the insane pay. We’re about to hire a software guy that didn’t know what grep or curl was

Granted there’s a few more hurdles (applicants must speak english fluently and make as few mistakes as possible writing in a country that’s hardly bilingual, top of the chain tech stack that might give people the feeling that they’re not qualified, …) but 2.5x the pay? I’m gonna get enough to straight up buy a house with cash in like two years

You get 5 weeks usually

We don’t specify when you go on vacation in Europe it’s just 5 weeks of paid time off
