Reminds me of Max Howell, creator of homebrew, when he applied to Google. His tweet: Google: 90% of our engineers use the software you wrote (Homebrew), but you can’t invert a binary tree on a whiteboard so fuck off. https://twit

All countries (also people) do that. If you have power, you put in use. See USA(Iraq), Russia (Crimea), Germany (WW2), Britain (colonies) etc... I do not support war or occupation but countries behave like high school children - bullies are

Disclaimer: I am Turkish and I live in Europe. I mean, the dispute between Turkey and Greece mostly is about the islands that are literally 5 to 10kms away from Turkish mainland and Greece trying to claim the whole Aegan See for themselves,

First question: I looked mostly in the center, nothing more than 7 kms away from my workplace. I needed somewhere that I can commute by bike, since the traffic and the fight for parking spaces are too exhausting. S-Bahn is too overcrowded.

My first apartment was a limited lease for 6 months (like AirBnB but a private company), which I could terminate within a month if I could find another place. I could not, had to extend it to 2 years (the landlord said it will not be possib
