To me as European that just feels like a theft ngl.

Good news for Germans - until the govt comes up with the idea of slavery, I mean obligatory conscription to fill it out:/

Thanks for sharing it, it was really nice read!

I'm not English native speaker, I will miss sometimes important stuff.

For my native Polish movies, the sound mixing might as well not exist, it's that bad.

At least in Poland even during vacation they are required to be at school for administrative reasons. Doing nothing, but still forced to be there.

That's a nice completely uncalled ad hominem

That seems completely crazy.

What does one ability to swim has to do with whether they are a good computer scientist, doctor or lawyer? Insane.

For you it was common thing, at mine classes best we did was adding numbers in assembly.

Don't assume everyone had the same uni experience.

Is there anything wrong with not knowing how to swim? It's a handy skill but not needed to the majority.

I live in the middle of my country, there aren't even any rivers nearby. I'm not going to drown.

I don't understand what is the reason for this unrelated rant.

Hope you won't die in the process.

Like c'mon, I get there was a lore explanation behind saves but c'monnnnnn

Granblue Fantasy Versus did similar stuff. It's Discord fighter by now... That locks creating room behind completing 5 matches against AI and 2 ranked matches against people. Even if you just want to play with friends.

My uni in Poland - CS and software engineering were basically the same things when it comes to Math classes, the difference was mostly in programming classes (we at software engineering had more project based classes and they had a lot of smaller ones)

Article like this seems weird from Economist. Isn't it the free market magazine?

I have no idea. It is what is is... :/

Cynically it feels to me like it's just a nice way for the companies nearby to get free labor.

My assumption for that is just that it's just supposed to be an internship somewhere where our focus would be to study and thus we shouldn't get any benefits from it, but I've never heard of it working that way. It was always in IT here just being an unpaid junior.

Same in Poland - none of my friends who did their required internship at studies was ever actually taught anything.

It was always just "do your job, don't cause problems".

And for free. Of course. My uni literally bans us from being paid. If we do, they won't acknowledge it as internship.

I had went with spaceship, virus, letting my body die.

Teleportation would kill me anyway, it is not the same person. Either getting a silicon brain or letting virus go on would kill my current self, so I chose to preserve my body; and if in third question we are sure soul exists, risking its' obliteration is never worth the gamble.

I know the answer won't help you, but - from friends recommendations.

If they recommend something great you wouldn't hear otherwise, that's good, and if the game is bad - well, you still have something to talk about

I still don't like that solution.

What if your parents earn they much but don't want to pay for college for whatever reason, let's say just not getting together? Why be punished for what is not your fault? (Okay, in this case it could be if you're the reason parents don't want to talk to you, but you get the case)

That being said stab in the back doesn't involve antisemitism in Slavic languages. I have the same idiom in Polish, and it's just an idiom for betrayal.

If you're very good. Most people aren't, and we should keep that in mind.

But yes, if you are good, honestly... there's not much reason to move unless you disagree with the current politics.

I know, sorry if it sounded that way - I was just trying to add to that.

That feels like USA thing. In Europe it's way lower in average, in Poland average programmist will earn 6-7k per month - around 1.700 USD

Heard similarly about pay in Germany - being a programmist doesn't pay you well

In Poland it was a very common thing in high school for us to skip school and study for high school exam on our own, as that was more effective usage of time we felt.

How can you achieve that? I just can't nap, it takes me around an hour to fall asleep.

But they are technically slacking off, aren't they?

It doesn't matter what the reason is, but you're not getting anything done in that time. Why should you consider that as a time you worked during?

Wow, that's amazing. I wish for him the best for the future!

... But damn if this doesn't me make just feel hate for myself considering my lack of achievements by that date or even now.

In the end value of person is in what they do. If you can't constantly ship anything, you have a problem you need to solve. Painful, but you shouldn't sugarcoat it.

Yeaaah, I didn't really thought much on the nick while creating account. I just picked first person I saw on Wikipedia page.

Okay, to be more serious - thank you

So not even your mind would be safe.

If true, everyone who took part in it should be tried as terrorists for crimes against humanity and never see the light again.
