As somebody with a degree in bioinformatics, I have never seen something more true in my whole life.

Some more lies from my time in academia:

• “Planning and executing medical trials” = 6 months of statistics
• “Machine Learning” = 6 months of statistics
• “Pattern Recognition” = 6 months of statistics
• “Health Data Science” = 6 months of statistics
• Biostatistics = lol jk just 6 months of statistics

I said it before and I’ll say it again: we need to work harder so that this asshole can buy his 2nd yacht. Have some compassion.

I am outraged, a plea deal to avoid life imprisonment? What the fuck did I just read?!

This guy trafficked, raped and tortured her, and other underage women. Police did jack shit. And she was supposed to be watching him just walk away? Grotesque.

I am a happy backblaze user and generally I’ve only heard good things about them.

They do have multiple data centers and they are operating B2B products too.

Is there anything in particular that would make you think they could be unreliable?

So are cyber-attacks during an active war, against supporters of Ukraine, not considered acts of war? Not to mention the recent killing of military personnel on German soil? That too, not an act of war?

Long time vim user here. Practically had to choose right after starting as a dev, never looked back. All my editors/IDEs run in vim mode nowadays.

I don’t like the hassle of plugin management in vanilla vim.

I didn’t like evil spacemacs, but I do enjoy magit a lot.

Then tried neovim: good out-of-the-box experience, better plugin management, ready-to-use systems like nvchad. It’s been great.

Greed. The answer is greed.

My PC was so slow that I was playing FF8 at a ridiculously low resolution and was still only getting 10fps.

Didn’t stop me from playing all day every day.

Epstein didn’t kill himself

Just in case nobody noticed: Epstein didn’t kill himself.

Sorry, but wtf was as innovative as to warrant a GOTY in Starfield?

EDIT: no a hater, 90hrs played, overall would not recommend and genuinely don’t see what was innovative.

The point of my comment was not really that there are no cheaper options. The point is that I should be, by most measures, firmly middle class and should be able to afford to buy a house around the place where I work. It’s not Munich or Hamburg, and I was not looking for something close to the city center. I was just looking for a decent house for my family.

I fixed a typo in the title:

How Inflation Putin stole Christmas across Europe.

Seems like Putin will get all 132% of the votes this time, since he will be the only one on the ballots.

I see so many negative comments here. Have some compassion. How is he going to afford to pay for his 2nd yacht if his workers are not doing overtime?

I have lived in Germany for 7 years. I hold a STEM master‘s degree and was working an industry job that paid market rate salaries. With 50k€ in savings I was still denied mortgages because 50k was just barely covering the additional purchase costs (such as realtor and notary fees).

For a modest condo with a small garden in a small-ish city in central Germany I would’ve had to work and pay the mortgage until I retired, because the average house was 600k EUR. And most of the properties sold at that price still needed significant renovations.

If that is not f^cking crazy, then I don’t know what is.

Starfield, like a maniac.
