But it's fun. I used to watch Civ IV/Civ V playthroughs with all players being bots and it was weirdly entertaining, especially when you made "bets" who would win based on start / …

I am very interested in why you both chose to single Poles out with this, used lowercase AND used slur here. > and polaks

But it is. My worth is based on what my value is, what I can do. What when I can no longer have any value on the job market?

> but there are better ways What are those?

It's hard for me not to think what's the point. I am a very average, even below average person in times of intelligence. What is even my value or reason to be if I know anything I …

Does the website have geoblocking or did HN gave it a hug of death?

How can one work on that and not consider that they're pure evil?

HN is flooded with anti-Europe sentiment recently. I don't know how much of it is Americans genuinely believing or, or if it's astroturfing.

It depends, as always. My Masters degree at a Polish (good) university was... Let's say I didn't learn anything during these three semesters and the only upside is that I have pape…

Yup, in Europe I think almost every undergrad is either 3 years, or 3.5 if you are to get engineer title afterwards. But then Masters is way more common to do afterwards compared t…

Thank you for sharing that, it is a good quote, I agree.

Same in Poland. My civics teacher in high school was a historian. He hated that, he wanted to be a lawyer. But he didn't get admitted to studies, so he had to pick something close …

For entrance exams though... At least in Poland, we had them as well. They were corrupt. Cheating was rampant, and a very common way for getting admitted was paying professors from…
