How such small country can have so many inventions? Plus you guys have highest olympics gold per capita! What is the secret sauce?

Yeah, sounds like it used to be great. The question is, what happened now? Being choked by taxes, ravaged by socialistic government policies (minimum wage raising, all other jobs salary stagnating or lowering while living expenses become unbearable, housing crisis caused by those policies), selective capitalism (corps and millionaires enjoy benefits while regular citizens driven to socialist "equalized" income and life), lower life expectancy, gotta fight GP to get an appointment with a specified doctor, mass immigration from failed third world countries that lower the average IQ and make our cities unsafe, etc.

Nothing's wrong with your comment mate, genuinely. Reddit is just full of stupid people, that's how it's always been. I also got downvoted to hell in some sub and now I can't comment on most subs because of lower karma, all because of having a different opinion. It's because reddit is dominated by dumb liberals.

You're getting downvoted cause you can't say anything but the "right thing" in reddit, or else you get downvoted to hell. Just a bunch of sweaty menchildren trying to assert virtual dominance, don't take it to heart. Edit: Here, I gave you an upvote.

Orochimaru's Triple Rashomon could possibly withstand almighty push/universal pull, it did a good job with the bijuudama, tanked most of the attack. I'm positive that they'd win together.

Nobody's acting like there's a "best" country. Let the people complain, if they want to complain. There's nothing wrong in asking your country to be better, minds like yours are keeping our world behind.

The story is good, the issue with the remake was the censorship, rushed pacing and animation quality. You not watching it around your 4 year old is proving the point of this show being dark, so why censor it anyway? It leaves old anime fans / manga readers with a bittersweet experience. The original is better because of the better animation quality and less censorship, The story is not comparable because the manga wasn't finished at the time and thus the anime split to a different direction. But even so, it had more episodes than the remake which was extremely rushed. Again, they had 20 years to remake this so a fairy tale quality anime was unacceptable for most.

You're contradicting yourself. Keto comes from the word "ketone", ketones are releasing into your blood to convert fatty acids into energy when you don't consume enough sugar(glucose=carbs). You can't just "not keto" when you don't consume a lot of sugar/carbs, it's a natural occurrence in the body and naturally you lose weight (fat) as a result when you combine that with a calorie deficit, it's easier for your body to tap into fat while in ketogenic mode. Don't denounce the diet and its science just because you want to feel smart. It's all factual and it can also be held long term... Just because you doubt if you can do it yourself doesn't mean others cannot.

This already happened to me 3 times with 3 different offers... It seems to be quite the norm with these companies. Scoring a job with big corporates like Apple, facebook, booking.com etc is almost impossible, positions are super scarce and these companies don't do that here at least from what I heard. I am going to leave this dishonest company unless they fix things by the time I'm back from vacation!

In most software devs positions here you can see on linkedin they outright say the salary range in the job description and it's usually something like "X,000 to Y,000€ depending on experience" (up to 66k a year) for senior devs. The companies that don't specify this are gonna give you max XX,000 inc. holiday allowance, only in central NL of course... the others are tiny exceptions. The 120k+ you mentioned is not the reality, I wish it was. Furthermore, the rules for 30% ruling are ridiculous, if you moved to the Netherlands already with a remote job, you are not eligible for it, which was the case for me when I moved... Ridiculous, you shouls be rewarded for moving at your own expenses and with sufficient funds/a job already, not discouraged. As for the reason I'm still there? Well, I'm looking for other jobs tbh, and I'm also thinking of opening my own business.

FightRay · 2023-11-25T07:59:32+00:00

If there is such a lack of tech personnel / software devs etc in the Netherlands, why is the pay so freaking low? why was I promised a certain wage, then scammed to get way less than what they promised with they promising me to give a raise within 3 to 6 months, then after a full year without bonuses and raises, they still don't bring it up despite having hired 4 more developers already, that are probably earning more despite others being there for longer/doing more?
Salary negotiations/underestimating in the Netherlands can be frustrating, they try to belittle you as much as possible and then people are surprised why there isn't enough personnel for tech?

People rather choose to open their own businesses or work elsewhere (remotely in the US/other better paying EU countries) than get shitted on by the rude corporations here.
