sorry for hurting your feelings. I had tweeted it before and thought it was quite relevant to the post so I shared it here as well. If a couple of hashtags bother you, you should re-evaluate your priorities in life.

First #GDPR, now #Uploadfilter... What is next? A totally censored internet? The EU is becoming more and more absurd with its regulations that do nothing but hinder technological advancement. Already way behind than the East Asian countrie

My MacBook has the screengate issue. I had it replaced two times! After a while, the antireflective coating starts peeling off. When I took it to the service again, Apple's response was hilarious: "We cannot keep changing your scr

There has to be a golden middle - I neither like German-style poker-face, almost angry looking baristas nor American-style fake-as-hell smiles when being served at Starbucks. Korean style service is very close to the golden middle - very ki

My router started acting weirdly about three weeks ago (intermittent disconnections, slow connection etc. ) and then stopped working all of a sudden. I asked for a replacement from the provider and they changed it last week. Now I am freake

I would guess so. However, the original comment I replied claimed that businesses pay even less than private citizens.

you cannot advocate for a change for all if you are the only company in that field. Uber was literally a revolution of transportation. However, as a side effect, the changes you advocate sets a precedence, thus also affects everyone, which

yeap, the ones who didn't ban are the ones who didn't apply all these useless strict regulations. In Germany, it is still not possible to take an Uber ride, for example. Besides, if it started in Europe as a small start-up it woul

the lack of strict regulations is one of the reasons start-up businesses flourish in the US. Although I am pro-regulation in some issues, I think that European style pain-in-the-ass regulations only hinder technological advancement. Would

nope, not in Europe. Businesses have to pay a lot more than private residences.

one of the advantages of living in the US. Nowhere in the world can a high school student earn 600$ a night by doing a simple, effortless side-activity. Even in countries like Germany max you can earn as a student would be less than a 1000$

It is interesting. I would have imagined that Amazon refunded it right away, with a free 2 months of Prime membership extension as an apology. Most of my interactions with Amazon Customer Service has been nothing short of perfect. Just the

Once Facebook algorithms detect that your account is managed by bots, they can simply discard whatever you did since you started the bots, rendering your efforts useless. I am guessing it wouldn't be that hard to detect account anomal

Another Germany related comment today. Made my day :) It really becomes annoying when you have to wait a minute because an old lady needs to count all her coins in Lidl. Back to the original topic, as someone who can speak a few languages,

Another article that was published a while ago had an interesting take on it. There is a quite high correlation between numbering system of a language and how quickly/well kids speaking that language learn counting and math skills. Ap

To those who are affected by the incessant hum, have you ever tried to actually measure it by some technical equipment? I am pretty sure there are devices that can detect and register sounds of almost all frequency levels. What about the n

I just signed up and I am a little freaked out. How did you know what my Native language is and what other languages I speak? The only info I provided was my email.
