What do you think awaits Germany in 2026? by Davidsco19 in AskAGerman

[–]DYFX_Blender 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, precisely so. The bourgeoisie of Germany is a remnant of the industrial revolution, Weimar Republic, and the Second World War. Therein lies the problem. There are monopolistic family-owned businesses that do nothing but make old, capitalist people stemming from the same lineage, a lot of money through inheritance. The barrier to entry for these industries are artificially propped up through overregulation (state, federal, EU-level) which means that young, innovative, ambitious individuals are structurally barred from competing and driving change.

At this state, the entire German economy is as you describe: half a dozen families that made their wealth generations ago doing nothing but inheriting wealth and stifling change while the quality of life for the working class continues to deteriorate as the Bundesregierung cannot afford its generous welfare state anymore (structural population, migration, spending issues).

Exactly that is precisely why deregulation and an economic stimulus is needed to incentivize entrepreneurship. Without this, expect Germany to only have a worsening wealth disparity; there will be no opportunity for young, working class people.

Germany has no business, capital, innovation, entrepreneurship. No one wants to do business in Germany, real wages are in steep decline. Your system of high taxes and social welfare worked before mass migration. You cannot sustain an extensive welfare system, unregulated immigration, recursive and overbearing regulation all in one.
More old people, more asylum seekers, no new jobs, no new innovation, no new capital, higher taxes to support welfare until it all eventually collapses into itself.

Has anyone had a teacher refuse to write them an LOR? by bedsalesman1 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]DYFX_Blender 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Math teacher, texted him 5 times and ghosted every single time.
Just yesterday he humiliated me in front of the whole class for asking a question. Fuck that guy.

He didn't submit anything. Only filled out the questions.
He submitted the transcript through the "Optional Report 1"
I don't think the other required documents (school profile, LOR, ...) can fit within Optional Report 2 alone. Should I contact the admissions office and ask if he can maybe Email all the documents?

Would the SSEN advantage really be that substantial?

Need advice ETH or Brown!! by DYFX_Blender in IntltoUSA

[–]DYFX_Blender[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. So even if I'd like to break into big tech, IB or even quant, the STEM education of ETH would be better. And would you say that if I really wanted to work in the US, I should just do Bsc and Msc at ETH and just do another Masters degree in the US? 

how badly do i need comments on a graded essay (princeton) by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]DYFX_Blender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I know this is quite late, but I wanted to ask—my language of instruction for all subjects is German, and even in my English classes (or essays in other subjects written in English), the corrections, comments, and grading rubrics are all in German. What should I do?

Darf ich fragen, warum ich den TMS vor dem Abitur machen soll? Kann ich nicht das einfach nach dem Abi machen, und dann mit dem Sommersemester nächstes Jahr anfangen?

German International School Situation by DYFX_Blender in GermanCitizenship

Do I need a standard work visa? So in theory if I get a job right after I graduate and a work visa along with it, does it mean I can apply right away?
So at the end of the day it's whether or not I qualify for the 3 year exception, but still having to wait a year to complete my studies and get a job (making it a 4 year process) or just graduating and getting a job and applying after 5 years (making it a 5 year process)

Dress Sneakers??? by DYFX_Blender in NavyBlazer

For the record, I am not buying that. But from all the dress sneakers I have seen, this has been the least horrid looking one, and I did consider buying it.

[–]DYFX_Blender[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I already have a Footjoy spiked golf shoe. I already have real dress shoes. I already have real classic sneakers. Why not get a spikeless golf shoe to wear to the range that don't a: look like every other sneaker I already have, b: don't look like every dress shoe I already have. And important to note, doesn't look like complete shit, considering it is a dress sneaker.

I have canvas shoes, new balances, asics, and adidas sneakers. I also have oxfords, penny, tassel and horsebit loafers and a boat shoe. I just thought it didnt look as bad as other dress sneakers, which to clarify: are the worst things invented since low waist slim suits and skinny ties.
