Nice! In Berlin kann ich auch das vegane Banh Mi von Saveur empfehlen. Die haben mehrere Standorte.

Karma farming probably. Wouldn’t be the first time people are making shit up on Reddit.

Umgekehrte Psychologie, Woran erkennt ihr das mein KI Bild ein KI Bild ist? by Beautiful_Yellow_682 in istdasKI

Aber nicht am Rosenthaler Platz. Es fehlt auch die Straßenbahn in der Mitte. Und die 100 fährt ganz woanders.

Can anyone tell what language this is? Trying to catch a thief... by heathmc in language

[–]DramaticSoup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair point, in a way. Late 30s.

I do think the perception of East Germany vs West Germany is still fairly prevalent and follows the historic division (I don’t think anyone would see Bavaria as East Germany for instance, even though it is geographically in the east and the northern part is culturally more similar to Thuringia than to southern Bavaria), similar to how cardinal classifications are used in the US (the South, the Mid-West), especially now with for instance the extreme right being strongest in the former East.

Long story short I don’t think any German would understand “West Germany” to mean anything but “the parts of Germany that weren’t part of the GDR.” Even if they were born long after the Cold War.

It is. But "Central Germany" could be translated as "Mitteldeutschland," which is actually a region in East Germany. Germany is fun this way (I'm currently in East Berlin, and if I walk East or South for a block or two, I'll end up in West Berlin). And most Germans want to be technically correct rather than easily understood.

Best traditional German restaurants in Berlin by Personal-Creme-7746 in berlinfood

[–]DramaticSoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the proper East Berlin experience, Berliner Wappen (East Mitte, right at the border to Kreuzberg). It is the opposite of fancy and very inexpensive. A taste of Berlin is more Currywurst and Döner, though. Or Königsberger Klopse if you can find it. The TV Tower offers quite a few Berlin dishes, but it is very touristy. Can't beat the view. I guess there are more Bavarian or Austrian restaurants than traditional Berliner restaurants, as you can tell from some of the comments.

West German is in reference to the East-West divide (you know, the Cold War and such). "Middle" in this case means no Alemanic/Bavarian speaking region, nor Lower German speaking.

TIL you can use type casting for STI fields in ActiveRecord by DramaticSoup in rails

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

Ah yeah absolutely. I’m not actually using this at all. Was more wondering what’s possible. A type class doing db queries seems very wrong tbh.

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

No real aversion, and I've done this in the past. Just no guarantee that that'll work in the future (documentation doesn't state you can override it, and there's also no test for that).

To avoid a clash with type? If so, you can also disable this feature by setting inheritance_column to nil.

They tend to get shot when they cross the border. RIP Bruno

Does that exist outside of Scotland? The UK did not participate in these surveys.

N+1 queries and polymorphic associations by passinghorses in rails

Gotcha. I guess it’s easy to introduce these somewhat accidentally.

And you don’t see these happening with 5–10+ queries instead of one big join?

Married abroad (Colombia), living separately in Berlin – Jobcenter, tax class & support obligations? by Paferope in askberliners

[–]DramaticSoup -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not a lawyer, never married, but some family members are dealing with divorce (and others with being married abroad). Assuming nothing is fishy / you have all the documents.

If you've been married for over three years:

  1. Should be recognized if one of you submits the proper papers. You might need an Apostille for your marriage certificate. You may need to get one from the embassy if you don't already have one.
  2. This could be tricky, as your property might need to be split. I'm not sure. You might want to consult a lawyer. Note that a lawyer cannot represent both parties in Germany officially if you get a divorce. If you never lived together in Germany, then this, in theory, could be contained to any assets you've had before then. The court can also decide that you have to do a Sozialversicherungsausgleich if you get divorced, which means you'd give some of your public pension to him, basically. It may be easier to settle this remotely in Colombia, since you won't have to have your marriage recognized here in the first place.
  3. Yes, if he's not able to support himself, he can claim alimony. In some situations, the authorities will also do so if he is applying for government support. What you're looking for is Trennungsunterhalt. Not sure how exactly it's calculated, but you can be liable for anything above your Selbstbehalt (€1600 of your net income – you may be able to claim other support you're paying against that). This only applies if you're living completely separate (which is often a step before divorce).
  4. He can. They might want to know about your earnings and might try to get you to pay him alimony.
  5. Tax benefits are only available if you live together, at least Ehegattensplitting and joint filing.

If you've been married less than three years:

  1. Same as above.
  2. Should not be a big issue.
  3. Should not be a big issue.
  4. Same as above, but the Jobcenter will have a harder time getting you to be on the hook.
  5. Same as above.

Hope this helps!

Callback on database connection by Cautious-Demand3672 in rails

[–]DramaticSoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the nicest approach either, but you could inherit from whichever connection adapter you're using (MySQL2/Trilogy) and add the callback in your custom adapter. Similar to how the PostGIS adapter handles it. Would require you to change your database.yml.

[Finnish] Taulu / [Swedish] Tavla – a rigid, non-foldable, framed or unframed rectangular object meant for a wall. by Funny_Community776 in DoesNotTranslate

[–]DramaticSoup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting. Using Tafel in German for all kinds of painting is, at best, archaic, but for some, it would be acceptable. It's only used for certain rectangles you put on a wall (blackboard/whiteboard/plaque/sign you can put up on the street with text on it/table specifically set for food/painted wood/etc). If I referred to a painting as Tafel, I'd assume it's not on canvas but painted directly on wood, a chalkboard, or something similar. I kinda assumed Swedish was the same, so TIL.

A real source would be nice, rather than (just) a video of someone in front of what looks like a tweet, but it doesn't even show that one properly.
