No thanks, as you end up in a database of people to be gassed, as socialist regime keeps progressing.

It is not that a website can run over people...

But he said "regulations that stifle", not "regulations that are essential". It seems like people don't even read comments nowadays and just get triggered by keywords.

So-called "public pressure" is often made up. It usually goes like this - a lobbying company pays journalists to run a story that X causes Y. Journalists look in their network for people willing to confirm X causes Y and that they are outraged. The story is then exaggerated and run numerous times so that people get an emotional connection with the actors and start to believe X causes Y. This is an opportunity for a politician to offer a "solution". In the end, a company gets favourable legislation, a politician gets points and media get clicks and views. But society loses.

No thanks. I wish bureaucrats have limited their ideas to their own lives. Fascism is creeping in from all sides in the EU, but people seem to live in denial.

> Eschew flamebait. Don't introduce flamewar topics unless you have something genuinely new to say. Avoid unrelated controversies and generic tangents.

I'd say it is biased and a bit of an echo chamber.

It is like preferring dried beans over a calculator to do sums...

This could become a genre, like rap when someone talks over music.

Can't see 4k screen. Come on it is 2018 I don't want to see pixels.

> the landlord did not tell me

> the landlord who I have a good relationship with

No, you don't have a good relationship.

Why make money if you can make happiness?

No. I have good eyes and hate to see pixels.

I wish it was 13 inch. I need 13 incher with 32-64GB of RAM, 4k screen and decent CPU.

The accent thing could be viewed as not hiring someone on the grounds of disability. If you can't understand how someone speaks, you can always communicate via Slack or email.

The lunch one - if the argument was not related to work, then I can't see an issue. You don't have to talk personal stuff to the co-workers, so unless the conversation wasn't mandatory and wasn't initiated by the candidate, then no issue here.

Only really valid cause is the firework.

When I fitted my laptop with 118GB Optane drive (intel 800p). My builds run twice as fast now. I wouldn't achieve this by swapping CPU.

There are also high taxes in Europe so you must account for that. Then Europe salaries look even less attractive...

I would be most interested in how much they pay. For right money I could develop most boring apps that other coders would die of boredom reading specs.

I wouldn't move to Berlin, so that's an issue. For such locations only option is to have occasional travel like once a month or two and work remotely.

This. Don't change the code until you have reasonable test coverage. Only changes to enable testing should be allowed.

Should GDPR enable portability in the web apps? I think that is mandatory for a website to offer data take away in a standard format.

Nobody prevents anyone from creating competing CPU. It just won't have x86 instruction set.
