European here, American date format is better.

I think prices today are to some extend inflated by government action. But it is hard to tell by how much, since also the global economy will grow again very soon. And if anyone be…

My feeling is that best Indian software engineers are in the US (or even Europe) already. I have great Indian and Pakistani colleagues at my company, but we had very mixed results …

I am in Germany (where software engineers are ridiculously undervalued) and would consider 80k an underwhelming mid-level salary. According to levels.fyi, salary in the netherlands…

Thank you! Any other optimistic and believable sci-fi you would recommend?

Sounds like "Pandora's Star" by Peter F. Hamilton.

I only read Pandora's Star so far, but I really liked the fact that it was a rather optimistic vision of the future. Humanity had colonies on dozens or hundreds of planets, and due…

However, the "controversy" has been overstated by the German media as well. Drosten, virologist who has been cited as one of the critics, called the Gangelt/Heinsberg study "very s…

"ANY SURPLUS IS IMMORAL" "AUTOMATION IS DEADLY" ... wait, what?

At my current company, Powerpoint is used as the main medium for communication and reporting. Powerpoint slide decks are even considered some form of documentation by many, even th…

It was in a press conference with the German minister of health and the RKI. The British chief medical advisor estimated 20x in Britain. Of course nobody really knows at this point…
