They only have to “obey” if you are an actual employee. In my experience, it is more likely that you will be a contractor and need to be self-employed in Germany and pay your own taxes. I’m an Australian living in Germany and working for US

Do they actually have any interest in programming? Development can be incredibly stressful and frustrating and without any personal passion or interest for it, I doubt someone could really stick to it for the long-term. There are many jobs

Wake up, black coffee, and 1 hour of a push/pull/legs split, 6 days per week. 30 mins cycling on my stationary bike at home watching netflix, 3 days per week.

I'm an interested product manager and UI/UX designer. I left my last full-time gig in SF to work on my own SaaS too. My details are in my profile if you're interested.

Left-field comment here but can you talk to or get closer to the users of whatever product you are working on, so that you can hear how your work is actually helping someone? That CRUD app might be saving someone money, time, and truly impr

Why do you seem so certain of that? I live in Germany, work for an SV company, and a work visa in Germany is absolutely required.

I lift 4 days per week (Chest, Arms/Back, and Legs twice). I'm a girl, so I'm trying to build that instagram booty. Basically 3 sets of 12 reps, to failure. Once I can do 12, I increase the weight. Chest: Incline bench, bench

I don't have an answer for you unfortunately, but this is exactly what I have been feeling too and I am interested in the replies. It's so difficult. I love building products, I get paid very well, and I have the freedom to work r

I set up a US bank account on a visit to the US that my employer pays into. I then use OzForex to transfer to my Australian savings account. Remember, it's not just the wire transfer fee that you pay when you use a bank. You are always

Just to clarify - do you now buy ebooks in German? Do you have any recommendations for good books in German for beginners? I've tried buying kids books (Harry Potter etc), but even those are far too difficult.. the "clickable&quot

I started meditating daily. I do it for twenty minutes every morning. It seems small because it is, but the impact has been huge. I genuinely feel that it's recalibrated my mind, which has resulted in me becoming more and more focused
