A similar book is „The Sparrow“ by Mary Doria Russell - humanity catches a radio signal of signing from another planet 4 light years anway and, since it’s so close, they send a delegation. The main character is a Jesuit linguist priest and

I jumped ship quite often in Europe myself, without any problems - 8 or 9 employers in the last 15 years. I think being able to switch between jobs like this is a sign of a competitive job market and not necessarily a by-product of normaliz

It's not irreversible in any sense of that word. First of all, you have a trial period of 3 to 6 months where you can fire someone without even giving a reason. Second of all, you can have fixed-term contracts, like 1 or 2 years - also

Yes but that is almost universally true. Buying now is better than buying in 10 years and buying in 10 years is better than buying in 20 years. I meant the people licking their lips because the prices may drop now, or who specifically waite

I’ve seen a really good summary for this situation and for people hoping that the recession will bring prices down: - house in 2021: 500k €, monthly mortgage 1500€ - same house in 2022: 450k €, monthly mortgage 2000€ It’s not seeing the for

What learning curve? Setting up the account in the first place? Sure, that’s a tad complicated, but I really don’t understand why your girlfriend finds it easier to call you when she just has to open the app and the code is simply there.

The german post did this last year for the physical stamps - the electronic stamps already had a code. This way, you get some tracking, but the only advtange is that you can see when your letter was automatically processed in a center, the

How does linking to other companies help me find a career tho? I’m assuming that if I’ve found your site, I’ll definitely find the others. Especially since they are big-ish names. Probably applied there before too

Most certainly there are cables that are much better than the ones Apple is selling. I’ve been an iPhone/iPad user for more than 10 years and I no longer use Apple cables because they are gone in 6-8 months. This is an issue they had f

I have doubts about this working in Europe, where water culture is, well, more prevalent. But I would love to read market research about it. I for one hate buying water when out, it always feels like something _wrong_ to do, because of the

No, that's the exactly problem. Nobody knows why they ban accounts. And once an account is dead, it stays dead, no matter how much bad press they get (see the guy that sent a photo to their doctor). I've seen well described in ano

For me it was a couple of hours of work, going though the password manager, logging in and changing the e-mail address in the profile. I haven't migrated all and probably never will - the accounts I don't care about can stay on gm

I too am a happy user of Fastmail, but I am plenty dissapointed with the file storage, which was one of the main reasons I switched to them 2 years ago (and not to a competitor). Their support in both cases was just awful and more or less e

I missed that passport got autocorrected to password. More or less the process is described above: you send the initial request anonymous, so the IP is used to presume your nationality. We, the portal, would have contracts with different pr

Most definitely, that’s why most airline websites are blocked in Tor. Hotels do also, based on nationality. I’ve had to implement something like this when working at a hotel aggregator (like Trivago but not them). You would start the bookin

This used to be the case when we used Airbnb a few years ago. Is it no longer so?

We had a good run with Airbnb, but it’s no longer the guy renting his apartment because he’s leaving over the weekend. It seems like all the offers available now are from people who bought lodgings specifically to rent them out hotel style.

I am also very interested in data to support your claim. I offered my anecdotical experience and you're saying (quite aggressively) that that is objectively not true. Can you please provide a comparison between the # of messages sent a

How big of a problem is this in the states? In Europe, nobody I know, and I really mean I don’t know one single person that uses SMS or SMS-like apps like iMessage. If I open my messages app, I only have there my 2FA messages. It’s either W
