$3900 is our max target, but we could buy a second car for that.

I wonder how much cost plays in, I mean, my fiancée and I are adult middle class millennials and we’ve been saving for two years to have a wedding, and we’re planning a relatively cheap one.

I read the article, and I’ve been spending the past 20 minutes looking at the SPA framework. I’m still not sure what it is or why anyone would use it. It looks extremely complicated and verbose.

I ride my bike to work every day. It’s a 25 km journey, so with 250km a week I think I ride quite a bit. The fastest I’ve ever gone was 58,8km (ran out of hill before I got to 60) and holy cow that was scary. I can’t imagine getting to 80,

Very true, and I do still prepare for presentations. For me though, the side effect of practice has been how I can now naturally put my thoughts to speak and deliver the points I want the way I want. Both of these things seemed almost like

Practice, practice, practice. I used to be unable to do presentations, unless I had practiced them out loud twenty times in the days before the presentation. I wouldn’t write a script and stick to it word for word, I’d make slides and gener

In what world would you close a billion dollar income stream to “win”?

What have you won? China running out of things to tax, doesn’t mean America has actually gained anything. America was stronger, but that doesn’t create jobs.

I think it’s sexists, but I also think that targeted advertising should be allowed as long as Uber hires women drivers who want to drive for Uber. I think there will certainly be some issues if it becomes a trend though. I mean, most progra

The problem with these American views into Scandinavia is that they are always political. I mean, do you even have non-biased news over there anymore? I say this, not because the article is wrong, but because the best school system in the w

Don’t modern mining pools work exactly like coin voting? The entry level is buying hardware instead of digital tokens, but it’s not like proof of work is a democratic process anymore either where every small timer has as much to say anymore

Do the galaxy models have headphone jacks?

This, I see people calling the removal of the headphone jack a colossal failure, but if phones are selling, then how can it be a failure? People have a natural resistance to change, 20 years ago my city saw major protests when it wanted to

I think they are highly overrated and underrated at the same time. I think that useful opinions based on the practical experience of making stuff work, are extremely undervalued. A lot of opinions aren’t bought by experience though. Opinion

I’ve picked up node and js more seriously recently, coming from .Net and C# and I’ve been wondering why people in my learning material are relying so much on third party libraries for very basic things. I’m probably a little old fashioned,

I view any digital distribution platform where your content is tied to the platform itself as renting rather than buying. Makes things much simpler. That's why it was so disheartening to buy the x-com remake and find nothing but a stea

The story isn’t about immigrants, they are still willing to work the jobs, as you point out. Instead it’s an example of how the narrative of “if immigrants didn’t cause low wages then Danes would work the jobs” isn’t always true. It’s not

It’s more complicated than that though. In Denmark where I live, we have trouble staffing certain industry jobs. Jobs like gutting, freezing and packing fish or general slaughter houses. It used to be that these were low paying jobs, packed

I guess the outtake is that it's better to read the book than the article about the book. :)

Is Fidesz really a comparison point though, for anti-establishment parties? They held power in 1998 and they saw their biggest increase in votes in from 1998 to 2002. I mean, you definitely have a point, with them going from from 42.03% in

I don't think I agree with the article. Not from a European perspective. I'm Danish and we've had anti-establishment parties all my life on both the left and right side of the political spectrum. The populist rightwingers mos

I think context is king with these articles. It’s not a sneak peak into the lives of the wealthy, it’s a peak into the very vip section of a casino. The article itself is written mainly to sell the drama and the sleaze, and it’s purposedly

You have a point. I work in the public sector though. Last week I facilitated workshops to analyze how the administration can better implement an IT system as well as the organizational change-management for thousands of employees. If they

I respect people who have the ability to entertain thousands of viewers, I really do. At the same time I’m really happy that wasn’t even an option when I was young. I’m sure I would have spent even more time playing video games if esports,

Don’t you take this bit about out of context? If the premise the article builds around faulty tests is correct, then stuff like unit-testing is mostly a waste of time since you’ll still need to fix things when the servers are burning. We’ve

The push for forced support of local tv production on the big streaming services is coming mainly from leave type right-wing parties though.

In my experience git is excellent at being offline. I’m not sure if we would have had problem if our team foundation setup had ever went off line, but we moved to git long ago because it’s what every single IT-based student learns in my cou

Great headline, terrible article. It mostly talks about German words and almost nothing of German work ethics. The only interesting bit is around the end where it quickly skirts over the fact that you need to make employees realize they are

I work for a Danish muniplacity and I can assure you that every side way button has a functional purpose. It’s just that it’s not always the same one, and it varies throughout the day. Some of the buttons are there solely for the visually i

Well I’m Danish, and I can assure you that the only political push on this area is coming from the far left and feminists and it’s mainly focused on the fact that people are more body centric because they feel the need to be perfect. It’s n
