I got a lot of strange looks from white people in cars while walking through Capetown, SA. I could not imagine to live in a place where I were afraid to just walk where and whenever I want! Until now, I never had any negative experiences, a

Interesting. Always wondered how studying Shakespeare feels for native speakers. I had a hard time with Shakespeare, but enjoyed equivalent German poets a lot (though Goethe etc. worked more than a hundred years later ... no plain text tran

Maestro is huge in Germany. Many people do not have CC cards, but every singe adult has an EC / Maestro card. And we are really annoyed when they don't work abroad (though they do work with ATMs worldwide in most cases).

I disagree, because I think the 1st of April has turned into a challenge towards our own perception of news. While it is most often easy to detect an April's fool, it is hard to rule out false positives. So many news stories are so str

To get this started: In Germany, many local agencies have developed online processes to obtain birth certificates. In some places, i just need to fill an online form and payment and identitiy verification is handled by the postal service. H

Well, they may have the last word in some cases. But no judge is ever bound to act according to a supreme court judgement. They might do so, but they don't have to. To make decision permanent, the parliament has to pass a law.

As I am young, I often get the chance to start at a company that just laid off many old employees (because most companies know they cannot stop hiring at all, because I am cheaper, and because I'm educated in recent technology). But do

But be careful - as we are talking here that the 10H - 10T - 10H ... sequence is equally unlikely. The likelihood that exactly 38 get head and 38 get tail is pretty significant ;)

On the other hand, overhead in nothing close to 100% - more like 20%. (On top of the gross salary - The dev will only get about 55% of his salary after tax, insurance etc.). No mid-level dev expects 50k EUR after taxes.

It really depends. Minimum: 30k EUR Recent graduate: 35-45k EUR Senior: 45-60k EUR Like everywhere, salaries are higher in larger companies and for older people. As Berlin is quite poor, expect maybe 10-15% below German average, but take in

Fun fact: If you have a private German TV broadcast license, you are required to give a certain amount of airtime to independent companies. And you are required to air news-segments - the quality may vary :)

Sounds like a good reason to publicly shame amazon, thus damaging their brand value. If the damage to their brand is high enough, decent working conditions pay of. People start to be proud to claim that they "stopped to use Amazon"
