Infrastructure spending is not the best way of propping up the economy. You get more for your buck by giving the money to the people who will immediately spend it. Germany doesn't need to increase the military. It's not running an

It's banks. Our current capitalism functions on financial credit. Banks are lending all this money they don't have in hope that they'll get it back with interest. Everyone believes in it and I'd say that it's a form

There's no mention of any pubs within walking distance from this thing. I wonder how these 12000 people will quench their thirst after a hard day work... Or maybe grabbing a beer after work is not a thing there and they all go to gym.

Don't worry about what you read. It's mainly dick measuring or stuff learnt at work in specific domain. I know a lot of people who are awesome devs and feel inferior when reading HN comments. The only thing that matters is if you

Had a Whirlpooi front loader washing machine which started electrocuting me after 18 months. They repaired it under warranty and it started doing the same thing a few months later. With a small child in the house I didn't want it here
