I own a car and that’s single reliable mean of transportation in/around Munich. Airport line causes me always the stress since I am not sure if I am in the right part of the train or I will go to Freising. I double check it, triple che

I don’t know about Estonia, but Lithuania (number 2) has prices like in Switzerland with salaries being small fraction of Swiss ones. Plus political instability. Just watch the Taiwan embassy opening and Chinese retaliation. Or railroad to

Maybe overworked and tired population needs spandex instead of Tarkovsky’s movies. After 1,5 hours commuting and 9,5 hours in the office I prefer Netflix’ Red Notice over Stalker. And I guess I am not the only one. On the other hand as non

Google delivers worse and worse results. I have a hypothesis, that’s my problem searching in 3 different languages depending on topics. But also simple English engineering inquiries I must occasionally repeat on bing or DuckDuckGo.

Model Y was too expensive for me. Took Kia EV6. Trunk is smaller, but I will do just fine with that. BMW iX is super cool, but I can’t justify the price.

I fell you! I am thinking about nice 3D sensor for robotic applications. I have hardware prototype and rudimentary software. However no parts are available for sale, so I am not able to advance to production ready version. Very frustrating!

What’s so special about Tesla today? The promised self driving isn’t here. There are better cars on the market today to show how rich you are. Yes, Tesla cars are more efficient than competition. But heck, who cares about 2 kWh more when bu

We buy what’s available in stock, design with these parts small runs(500-2000 units). And then the run in 3 months is being made with completely different parts that were available. It’s emergency solution. But it’s better than being out of

The people are different and their taste is different. One must really love Tesla’s design language. For me it’s weird with single big display in the middle and I picked competing Kia EV6 model just because of that. Tesla is/was a stat

Thanks. According levels.fyi L5 might have this base salary. Funny thing is that none of these salaries are for the roles working with hardware. As electrical engineer I am sad about this situation.

The same is valid for Munich. 2-3 bedrooms plus dining room is <2k here. However it’s not the best apartment in the city, rather okayish. Also it’s hard to hit 5k after taxes salary limit here.

The good think is that EU is not holding you back from experiencing perfect democracy in Russia or China. Maybe you can become a poster boy/girl as a political refugee from rotten West there.
