30K net / year is a decent salary in France considering it you don't have to save for retirement, childcare is cheap, school is free, uni is free, health insurance is cheap and you don't have to save too much in case you are

Back in March someone asked a very similar question. One comment that I found very clever was advising to work on Open Source Projects. They may not be directly related to 'public health and equitable growth and space travel' but

Governments have a hard time making people wear a mask that can save their lives and the one of their families. I can't imagine forcing them to stop eating meat being a solution. And if you stop eating meat yourself there is absolutely

It is more complicated than it seems. Many businesses depend so much on Facebook Advertising that they would have to shut down. I remember an article on the front page on HN talking about some businesses being idle when Facebook was down. P

As a data scientist I interpret this as : if you can do it in SQL, do it in SQL. Once you really can't improve your, say, recommendation engine with SQL move to ML/DL. And sometimes it is better not to know anything about deep lea

"Living in the suburbs comes at a price: long commutes. Many people spend hours a day behind the wheel, getting to and from work." I wish there is a word to distinguish commute in a car and commute in public transport. The first o

"I'm not entirely sure why" That is what people usually call the law of supply and demand. Your salary is not a function of your skill but of how rare they are on the market relative to the number of job opening.

I came to the same realization not so long ago. Most of the content being produced is pretty much deja vu. That lead me into questioning what creativity is but that I could not find anything interesting to read about the topic. So if anyone

The cost / benefit analysis is so much in favor of mask wearing that I don't understand why they are not made mandatory. Maybe some HN reader knows about some cost that I am not aware of (ie a few of pounds and a small inconvenien
