That's not a laptop so you still need to buy a screen, keyboard, and mouse.

I agree they are but what if you can't afford to spend 800 or 900 on a laptop? There's also plenty of people who use their laptop until it's dead. Infact, I'd argue it's probably more economical to purchase a repair

The M1 is a good chip, but Macs are expensive. Cheapest one you can currently buy is the Air. That starts at 1k USD pretax. That's not within reach for a large majority of the worlds population. Not even within reach for a lot people i

There's a lot to unpack here. Correct, they hyped up the dangers. Considering what happened in Chernobyl and Fukushima, I'd argue the we're and are spot on about what happens when reactors critically fail. In 2011, several of

For the love of god, stop with putting the blame for this absolutely shit situation on the current green politicians. The reactors in Germany were well past their lifetime, some had serious security concerns, and weren't maintained to

Energy prices in Europe are dropping significantly. Spain's pricing is down to 2021 levels again last month. No idea where they host their data in Europe but it's much the same in other European countries. https://www.s

Berlin is not Germany. Yes, every city and region is a bit different but Berlin as a whole has such a different culture, especially if you predominantly speak English. Most of my colleagues are English speaking only and they sometimes compl

I have no input on HN in general, but personally I don't work for FAANG nor do I want/intend to. I don't take issue with layoffs in general. I take issue with HOW they're done. It's clear from all the news and HN co

I think half the value of a mindmap is going through the process to create it. That said, it really depends a bit on what the mindmap is for. Their website lists several examples including what seems to be more technical documentation. For

Different on a country-by-country basis but generally not really. For example, it's pretty common to have a 6 month probation period in Germany where both the employee and employer can quit/let go at any time with a 2 week notice

On a general level sure maybe, but for this particular case, there was little economical need for Google to have any layoffs. They're swimming in money and are highly profitable. Pulling the rug out underneath a new employee who is day

PayPal offers you a virtual account that you can pay money into. You can use that money to make purchases online, send and receive money from friends or other businesses. In effect, it acts like a bank account. However, it's not an act

Reasonably regulating payment processors is far from authoritarian. If you are on a scale like Visa and MasterCard you're not just any private company anymore. Just those 2 companies control well over 75% of the US market alone. Not ha

Not necessarily more. Better in this context means clearer and enforced. PayPal is the prime example where it's operating very similar to a bank. You have an account with a balance and can send and receive money, but it doesn't se

This is not an argument for crypto, it's an argument for better regulations so that processors don't make up their own rules.

If an employee is shocked to be put on a PIP, then something's going wrong during communication. Feedback should be a continuous process so people, managers and employee both, can make small adjustments to ensure they're in the ri

I have had the Brother MFC-L2710DN for close to 4 years now. I have had not a single problem with it. Super easy to use and maintain. 90% of the time it's completely turned off. Once left it unplugged for 5 months. Turned it back on an

ING seems to have excellent resources for this. I'll link their developer portal below. They do also offer CLI and SDKs and a somewhat extensive documentation. https://developer.ing.com/openbanking/home

It will depend a bit on where you are located. I got mine done in a very small shop in Berlin from a Schuhmachermeister. Shes unfortunately not doing shoes anymore. Supposedly there are only around 100 left in all of Germany. I know Florenc

Custom made leather boots. Expensive at around 900 Euros for the pair, but I've had them for 8 years now and they look new. You have to get the sole redone from time to time once it wears down, but the rest of the shoe will last you a

The idea is to provide a system that "Just Works". I know what OP is talking about. Managing ebooks is a pain in the ass. I want to buy books directly from the author and put them on my reading device, but I barely ever have the o

Lyft has unfortunately no where near the global presence that Uber has. In fact, I'm not even sure they operate anywhere outside of North America.
