Yeah, that too. I've listed some above, but also forgot Erlang, that's pretty important one.

But once we have AGI it will solve climate change forever. Probably.

Oh, I missed that part. Berlin has experienced a COL explosion recently, so not sure how easy it is to find a good engineer for 80K. Dresden would do probably, but south is also crazy expensive AFAIK.

Pre-tax salary is lower too though. And health insurance is paid on top of taxes.

No, take home is less, and we pay for our healthcare, it's part of mandatory social contributions (on top of taxes, that are normally higher too). At least in Germany we do have more paid time off though, but I don't think that&#x

Either the pay you offered was too low or your recruiters didn't do their job. Multiple functional languages have been created in Europe, there is a big and competent Rust (which is not exactly an fp language, but is not Python or C ei

Which argument? There are disadvantaged groups in the society (including by race), and several important aspects of them being disadvantaged are measurable. That's my whole argument here.

I think PG is right in tracking modern political ethical standards (that he prefers to refer as wokeness) to the student movements of the 60s. It is worth reminding about the roots of 60s movements itself though. It was spread over the whol

With this coordinated oligarchic turn to the right I finally feel very progressive again.

> There is none for the ubiquity and material impact of racism in 2025 What do you mean? Many ways in which people of color are being disadvantaged (net worth, income, representation in positions of power etc.) are very measurable, in 20

Not the only one, but to be honest, I also find most of SaaS-related content boring. Technically interesting content is as rare as it was, there is definitely some though, which I'd why I am here.

Is it a glitch of my memory or has the headline been edited? I thought the policy on HN was to use original headlines.

There is some good advice, but the way she assumes old people have a lot of money, costs go down because of accumulation of assetes and salaries rise faster than inflation, might not be transferable to everyone in all geographies and genera

Erosion of middle class has been happening for quite a while, and the heavens will not fall if it's accelerated. We might well end up in a future where labour has no leverage any more, and the society is divided into a small owner clas

It's not ARM vs RISC-V per se, it's how RISC-V is implemented in RP2350. But also RISC-V only has a replacement for "big" Trustzone AFAIK, so it might not be easy to bridge RISC-V with Trustzone-M aware bus/peripher

Out of curiosity: did you already have an education that certified you for the job, or is it something you acquired recently?

In my bubble coders find LLMs least useful. After all we already have all kinds of fancy autocomplete that works deterministically and doesn't hallucinate - and still not everyone uses it. When I use LLMs, I use it exactly as Google se
