As someone living in Tokyo, I can only say: Too bad that earthquakes and tsunamis do not define the way how nuclear power plants are built, though....

They are not going to find a Lead developer for this price. And if they find someone, that person will move to another company after realising how salaries are in London. http://www.monster.co.uk/jobs/search/?q=lea

Up to £45k is an offer for an entry level job. If you have experience, you should be looking for £60k or more. London is an amazing city if you can get a good job, otherwise, it can be quite hard to live there.

I had that same experience when I lived in the UK many years ago and I was still not completely fluent in English. On the other hand, when I lived in France, everybody loved the fact that I was making the effort to try to speak French. YMMV

I chased a girl to France, the worst decision I ever made. Some time after, I chased a girl to Japan, the best decision I ever made.

I'm afraid that you are comparing pears and oranges. If you want to be fair, compare American cities with European cities. In Barcelona or the center of Copenhagen, there are not free parking spaces. And I can assure you that there are

> In Europe, the state _is_ responsible for their people; this is how it's been for a long while. This not a really good analysis. In Europe, the state is responsible of guaranteeing that the basic Human Rights are protected for all

So true. Some years ago, I changed my career from Linux System Engineer to Web Developer (Rails and JS). I know that the fact that I was building HA clusters some back then has 0 relevance with the job I am doing now, but it is hard for me

I have visited California several times for work (and tourism) and I tend to hang out on forums where most of the users are from the US. And now I live in Japan, which helps me to have an "external view" on my own European culture

That's not exactly true. Do you have a degree in some engineering and speak Japanese? You can get your visa in about 2 months. Actually, if you are a programmer you may not even need Japanese. http://stackoverflow.com/j

You are talking about love hotels. They are extremely common in Japan and they are really not a big deal. Almost all of them are perfectly clean and they are cheap as well (for Japanese standards); for less than the equivalent of $40 you ca

But that's the big problem about the American approach to this problem (IMHO). The problem is not homlessness, some people can choose to live out of our society rules and I don't see any problem about it. We also built a society t

In Japan (except with some minor providers), your contract is linked to a concrete terminal. If you break your terminal, you must buy a new one from the company that is providing you the service. Also, if you want to use iPhone, you must ge
