Yeah, sadly it is legally allowed to spam company contacts.

The Tax and Customs Board does not look too kindly on that, because those would be considered costs not related to your business and you would have to pay all the ordinary employee taxes (fringe benefit taxes) on that. If your company'

1. Mobile-ID requires a pretty good cellphone connection to work properly and avoid getting timeouts. 2. Mobile-ID requires you to pay for signing up and after that, 1€/month to your mobile provider.

Am Estonian. The remote upgrade system is still working, but only enabled for high-priority users right now because of the high load - medical professionals, social workers, people who used the card more than 100 times over the past 3 month

It always seemed that South Korea's attitude was harsher thanks to the manhwa (especially Lookism). But now that I think about it, Japanese manga do not even feature fat characters unless they are completely irredeemable social outcast

A correct system disallows abuse to happen in the first place. I would draw a parallel to buggy software, that loses the trust of its users. I feel that the same thing can happen to a legal system: and then what will happen?

It's said that it's a very bad idea to do that. Women go to those activities to have fun, not for single guys to hit on them.

Because in many languages, this is trivial to the level of calling .reverse() on the array.

One of the usual complaints women have about their husbands is that men don't take their fashion advice into account. Sometimes this gets to the level of women dragging their husbands into clothing stores to buy new clothes that are pr

I have noticed that these things matter only when someone has been burnt by it once already. So before your class, nobody in their life had even bothered to check for plagiarism. Had to fail the projects of 1/3 of the class in a commun

That is the crux of the issue, isn't it? Actual productivity does not matter that much on a grand scale, the perceived productivity and therefore sales is what matters.

Agreed, agile seems the only way, but does indeed require experienced managers. A lecturer once pointed out that business/normal people would always expect some kind of point estimate, they are never satisfied with some kind of distrib

Is it actually the law though, not just lazy officials? We had that problem in Estonia too, but some procurement officials have actually begun to write scoring systems for proposals and so being the lowest bidder is sometimes actually negat

I wish that you could explain that in Estonia. Around here, anyone doubting e-voting is viewed as part of the fifth column and mocked like a 9/11 truther even by fellow techies, who really ought to know better.

The current claim is that the passenger was a doctor and had appointments he had to make the next day. So I can't say that this was unreasonably escalated at all. Actually, scratch that - the profession does not matter. Flying is an ex

It might be some kind of weird older generation disdain for computers. Graduated high school in 2005 in Estonia, some of my language teachers and relatives pretty much looked down on anything computer-related and saw it as only 'playin

Is it true? From what I heard, people with degrees from Fachhochschule are very much looked down upon. Also, anyone with a degree feels the need to add it as a title to any kind of correspondence.

IIRC, the best thing to do was to apply clustering to the rows/columns (k-means and hierarchical both worked, but I think it was hard to find the appropriate tree height for hierarchical clustering) and then to apply seriation: http:&

Oh come on. Like, don't 50% of Estonians have a misdemeanor because of traffic violations? Unless you wanted to work for Kapo or military, you should have no issues with that fine. Guys who have drug offenses still get work as software

Depends on the use case. A local POS vendor is running most of their local databases in stores (1..10 registers) on the Express version. Not sure how often they archive data out of the main database, though.

You willfully mixed up and misrepresented the 2 paragraphs of my post. I hope that wasn't with malicious intent, so I will clarify. The first paragraph dealt with the 'poor college student in Eastern Europe' side of doing a p
