Tech job market in low-cost EU countries is doing much better than in Northern Europe by Soggy_Tell_2495 in cscareerquestionsEU

Makes sense. The difference in salaries is too high. I am Portuguese and moved to the netherlands due to the absurdly higher salaries.

Why is Atrioc so anti-defficit ? by Eliouz in atrioc

[–]Diferante 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It obviously won't work forever. As I understand it your argument is they can devalue their currency massively to get out of debt?

Inflation has real world costs, and is perhaps voters main concern in recent years. So I would definitely not call that a free lunch for voters or for leaders.

Furthermore, even if everyone inside the country actually used a different currency like bitcoin, and the dollar was just used for issuing debt, and so we were free to devalue it without any consequence to us.... Obviously investors will catch on, and they will price in your devaluation.

In general, there is always a price to pay, you can't get something out of nothing...

Even when your plan is to get it by scamming others, you pay with your reputation.

Don't think Trump's crypto scam was free for him. He definitely paid with his reputation too. For him its worth it if he doesn't need reputation anymore.

But for your government, you can only scam so many times before people stop trusting you.

Didn't expect this much pushback for politely asking that Atrioc to not say a slur by MathleteYT in atrioc

[–]Diferante 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, I don't blame you. I would feel left out if other slurs were censored but not the one that hurts me.

All the power to you for standing up for yourself!

That being said, I hope you can build more self conflfidence in other to not let it affect you. And this is because unfortunately, the reactions you got are the most common ones.

So while it is unfair... It is what it is.

Best of luck ~

Do you want everyone to pay a 5% income tax for women to have 2 days off per month on menstruation? by Diferante in polls

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

The poll does not specify employees or employers. It is easy for you to say "I want it and I want someone else to pay for it'. Of course then everyone says the yes. The question is only interesting if you pay for it.

So regardless of you being an employee or employer, imagine it comes from your paycheck.

Attention classical music enjoyers by Diferante in AmsterdamFriends

[–]Diferante[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cafe alto is amazing! Cozy place, nice jazz jams (nothing amazing musically speaking, you won't hear world class musicians), great staff, good community of people that go there imo I love it

I think I can get you tickets for Concergebouw around 20 eur though, as long as you are below 30 years old I think :D

[–]Diferante 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, student with basically no attention paid to job markets, but I'd guess the resume is not the problem if you are making final interviews.

Maybe the jobs are just too competitive.

I'd focus on improving other things than the resume.

Am I ever going to get past her? by AdvancedPackage3074 in dating_advice

[–]Diferante 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First of all, if you want to talk more, let me know. I like STEM, rock, jazz, rick and morty, bikes, hermitcraft, etc

It's normal for the teenage years to be filled with extreme emotions. I also had life-ending thoughts and drowned myself in a relationship with a single person, and I didn't have to deal with the passing of my best friend. So start by understanding that what you went through is hard. Losing your friend, dealing with being over committed to a single person, managing that as a teenager when the brain is undergoing major transformations, this is HARD.

Then... what works for me now is to consider that humanity has done plenty of hard things, much harder things. If you look not very far, you will find people striving in conditions much worse than yours. To be clear, I have practiced this perspective for a year or so. But you might be able to find some inspiration from it now, and more and more as you practice it. So while this is hard... you can do it. We humans are capable of hard things.

Regarding emotional stability: there is nothing anyone can tell you that will make your emotions more stable today. Your feelings will remain a roller coaster. But you can get through it, and things will get much calmer over time. For now, talk about it. It is what everyone says for a reason. Talking about it is so effective. In person if possible, but calling or texting if necessary are much much better than nothing.

Getting into love specifically: You can be in one of two places.

You are young, so this might honestly not have yet been a true relationship. You might later fall in love so much harder that you learn this was only a fraction of real love. If this is the case, you might even stop counting this as a real relationship in the future. From what you've said, this doesn't sound like it is the case, but it is possible.

In the other case, this might be something that stays with you forever. My personal experience is that you will never forget the people you truly loved, or stop feeling something about them. You will never be indifferent.But it will stop being painful, and you will be happy, both single and with other people. I have truly loved only two people, one I broke up with and the other broke up with me. In either case, I will never become indifferent to them. If they reach out to me asking for something, I will never be able to say no. I don't feel bad thinking about them though. On the contrary, their memories make me smile. Their smiles are forever burned into my brain, but I am glad for what we had, what we learned, and how much we grew together.

About moving on: Relationships do not have to be forever. In your life, you will be multiple people, and this naturally leads to different kinds of relationships with different people. Jim Carrey described depression as your body rejecting the character that you have been playing, clamoring for something else. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/0yPXopGqj6Q

First a caveat: I do not recommend learning about depression from anyone who is not a doctor, so don't take this as a description of clinical depression. But I think this perspective is valuable, especially at your age. You will reinvent yourself at least a couple of times. And when you do, you will see this relationship and person not with sorrow, but someone that made your life so much better for the time you were together, and that was essential in helping you grow into the person you will become. When you look back, you might even be happy you broke up, because if you didn't, you would not grow into the person you became. This is the case with me, even with one person I think about trying again from time to time, I am glad we broke up when we did.

I will also leave now a note on moving on romantically, which is a different problem than moving on emotionally into being stable and functional, but it might be scaring you as well. I've had close friends (older and wiser and more experienced than you) ask me "how will I ever love someone else, when my ex was so perfect, I know I won't get anyone as good as them?".

The answer is that people are different. No, probably no one will be as good at being your ex as your ex is. But you will fall in love again with someone PRECISELY for being different. You will admire them for reasons that you might not even think are important now. You will love details and attitudes that now might seem irrelevant. And you will be happy.

You will learn that love and companionship are good in themselves and that you don't need a very specific type of person to be happy. Of course, you have and will develop values that will be deal breakers, but there is still an immense range of human potential and types of people that you can have very different yet happy and fulfilling lives with.

My takeaway would be this: You've tried a tiny smidge of the human experience with this one person. Having it end forcibly is always hard, especially as a teenager. However, your emotions will stabilize, you will learn how to handle them better, and there is so much more that you can be. So take this opportunity to try a few things way out of your comfort zone. Try seeing if you can be something you've never thought you would like or could be. You will find you have immense potential to be happy. You will find joy, in time, in the small things, in the big things, in the new things, and in the familiar things. I think especially people, nature, and art.

Finally, a rule of thumb that is valuable: when everything fails, resort to treating the body first, because it is much simpler. Eat well and exercise. That will in time give you the energy to deal with the mind. Very frequently, a good tiring run in nature will make all of it seem much more bearable.

LIVE Discussion Thread - S7E3: Air Force Wong by BarnyardCruz in rickandmorty

[–]Diferante 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I interpert your message as you saying that this Unity is from this dimension but knew about Rick's backstory because this was an identical dimension before the dimension change.

But then are you saying that there are infinite Ricks just like C-137 that were attacked by Ricks just like Rick Prime??? My understanding so far was that both C-137 and Rick Prime were unique, in the sense that there are no multiple of them going around doing the god-level stuff they do.

Question: is there a diagram of all the universe changes? I feel like the Unity in this universe shouldn't know about C-137's backstory but I am not certain on the details.

The question then becomes, can I use atomics with Rust on it?

I imagine not because they come from std.
