    >(because you shouldn’t move a small town if you are non white) Where does this rule come from? It does not match my experience.

    "Early 2025: First enterprise contracts secured" "Today: Powering Fortune 500 engineering teams" - I guess that is all that is publicly available for now.

    Built what you want to use yourself. AI for engineering and physics sounds like the perfect product a company like ASML (Mistral investor) could use.

    Yes and they are open about it. That is why they are building their own data centers in Paris and other places.

    What does a Physics prof at Berkely earn these days? In Germany it would be around 10K€/month (lets ignore all tax etc stuff, just ballpark figure)

    The challenge with CO2 monitoring is the sensor, not the electronics. Sensor accurracy and service life are key information. It is easy to create a low power chemical CO2 sensors w…

    "it is the exact contract in force for May 2025." - No, it is not. That is your mistaken thinking. In 2025, TV-L 13 starts with 4629€ a month and goes up to 6580€ (= 78K€+), depend…

    You are good with insulting, but weak on math. Even with your 2022 data/source, I get a salary that is >=Harvard. And if you look at the latest 2025 salaries the difference is even…

    So you are saying the average German Postdoc salary is NOT >= Harvard salary? What numbers do you have in mind?

    We have 2025, not 2022. So it is certainly not current. Inflation is a thing! ;-) My data (see above) is from the same source ("Tarifvertrag"), but from 2024. I am really surprised…

    Did you actually read the page you linked??? It supports exactly what I wrote. Just keep in mind that the latest salary data there is for 2022. The postdoc salaries I quoted are fo…

    You think of CEO salaries. PhD students and PostDocs earn more (or at least equal) in most of Europe compared to even the US top universities. Harvard Postdoc salary: $67,600 Germa…

    500 US$ = 442 euro. Does that include the higher doses? Than it is actually cheaper than in Europe. 15mg Zepbound is 489 euro in Germany for a month (4 shots).

    "World's best OCR model" - that is quite a statement. Are there any well-known benchmarks for OCR software?

    In my main job we provide SaaS services. We get more and more requests for "EU located" services. A new trend I see is that some customers even rule out using EU located servers th…

    Honest question: What major German company is in a 20,000 pop town in the middle of nowhere? And if so, would that mean life in such a town is worse than in a comparable small town…

    I disagree. The main downside of moving to Germany - or any other EU country except Ireland - is the need to learn German (or French etc) if you want to fully participate in daily …

    The German car industry is completely outdated and very, VERY conservative. This includes Bosch. I would never work there. The VW board even fired the CEO (Herbert Diess) because h…

    Dubbing in Germany is horrible and pervasive. Even in the news and interviews. Subtitles are cheaper and better. As others have said, it is better to expose kids (that can read) to…
