Dividing people into "the left" and "the right" (or Republican / Democrat or whatever) as if it's over homogenous entity is very bad for any discourse. Not writing this as an answer here to address you specific

Not sure what your point is. Exercising democratic rights by organizing protests is a good thing, isn't it? You didn't like watching it, so what?

It was installed by the US after WWII, because the Nazis took over the media and this public broadcasting system was installed to prevent that in the future. It's technically not paid by tax money and the government can not shut them d

It's still a misleading characterization of the situation.

They rely on GitHub actions, not the repository itself. I hope people here are aware that you can push your repo somewhere else if wanted. Git is a distributed system, there isn't even a server, only other git repo instances that are r

I have done that in the past to provide zero-setup development environments for our internal python packages. What's the problem with the approach?

A knife doesn't kill you, what kills you is the blood you lose after you get stabbed. Lack of sleep doesn't kill you / does kill you in the same sense.

The brain is a large network and humans learn best when an information doesn't life in isolation but can be integrated within.

You should lead with substance then. Instead you joined the discussion here with a polemic statement.

That's what Europe is currently doing. The US has indicated that it does not intend to lead the current world order or the Western world anymore so Europe is adapting and forming new bonds and alliances as fast as possible. Just closed

That's actually a common pattern and to me that's a bit off-putting as well. I have seen examples where some opinion gets momentum and it's repeated over and over again on the Internet even though the merit is very questionab

Most important thing is to use material (or tell LLMs) that use C++20. If you don't need compile time techniques (templates, concepts, consteval, context, ...) then C++17 might be acceptable, too. Modern C++ is pretty nice to write and

And then, people who come to work and use the official processes for legal migration suffer from complicated and insane rules and huge inefficiency. I have seen it with people I know, it's unfathomable. Administration trying to force s

As far as I know agriculture works similar in Germany in the sense that it relies on cheap labor. Except, I believe it's mostly legal because they come from inside the EU, making it easier to work here. Also giving them the same rights

In the Netherland, as an immigrant - not sure if always, but definitely in tech - 30% of your income are tax free for the first 5 years. I am actually looking for jobs there right now because of that.

Is it possible that VC decision makers just don't care to much at the moment? Do they have big incentives to have "Invested in 37 AI companies" on their power point slides or something similar? Will somebody ask question abou

They are trying to infiltrate the life of people with their politics. They will keep going as far as they can because they obviously use all leverage they have as the current administration to distribute their narrative. Using official gove

Happens as well in Germany and it's pure insanity. The US at least does not depend on migration as much as Germany, I believe. Even the current right wing party CDU doesn't seem to want to make migration harder, but when the extre

Mailing every (potentially) affected entity is common and good practice for major incidents.

> Maybe they're ashamed and are trying to limit the visibility while only technically issuing an announcement. I think that's panic mode from some decision maker (i.e. head of marketing or head of security).

Nobody needs the Ukraine war. It's only 35 years ago that the cold war ended, and Russia just tried to invade another European country after invading parts of it (Krim), so assuming they might attack another European country is not fea

I am right now actually trying to change job. In Europe it's not AS bad as in the US, but still bad. I'm pretty niche (sensor simulation) so I don't struggle to get Interviews, but jobs that fit are quite rare. I see a lot of

If you intend to discuss, you need to state an explicit argument.

I would say it's part of the US culture. It's not a thing in Europe (one reason might be practical reasons. We have less space to do it safely).

When the Nazis attacked, it was important for the Soviets and the world that the Soviets had a huge army. So yeah that kind of supports my argument. Doesn't have anything to do with the fact that Putin transformed the young post cold w
