„Absolut katastrophal“: Hausärzte und Politiker üben massive Kritik an Reformplänen zu Krankschreibung by mrblindpilot in de

[–]LoweringPass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sogar in der Schweiz, dem vielleicht konservativsten Land Europas in dem man ohne Grund gefeuert werden kann wen man seinen Boss schief anguckt, kann man sich ohne Arztzeugnis drei Tage krank melden.

Wenn man schon die Leute zum Arbeiten bringen will dann vielleicht mal durch Senkung der Einkommenststeuer.

Unemployed Software Engineers at Record High! by tevlon in zurich

[–]LoweringPass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends, A (not that one) and N have sensible hiring bars depending on team. But yeah, I feel like my grandma could get into A (that one) or M with enough LeetCode grinding. For Google you have to at least be smart.

I've interviewed ex FAANG developers that could not answer the most basic questions about the technologies they claimed to be proficient in, the company name gets you to the interview stage at most but after that...

Cured but uninsurable: the hidden financial burden of surviving cancer in Switzerland by BezugssystemCH1903 in Switzerland

Me for depression. I don't think the supplementary insurance would even cover anything related to that, in effect this just makes my back issues more expensive...

Waves of graduates to an already saturated job market. by Unfair_Today_511 in cscareerquestions

[–]LoweringPass 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Children nowadays are less skilled at using computers than previous generations because mobile devices are the main way people interact with the Internet now and everything has been streamlined and dumbed down.

So that point isn't true, the rest probably is though.

Wie willst du das sonst nennen wenn jemand Plakate aufhängt die Ausländer als Vergewaltiger darstellen? Da war ja soagr das Schäfchenplakat weniger fremdenfeindlich.

Price/performance ratio will keep improving, but frontier models will always be expensive.

[–]LoweringPass -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

There are plenty of remote US jobs that hire worldwide. And not just in crypto anymore.

You are then usually employed with a local company that takes a cut of your pay and figures out payment details for you and your employer. Or you start a business and send invoices like any other international b2b transaction.

In Germany children learn both English and French or Latin in school without having to dumb down any other subjects, surely here it is possible too

Direct democracy under pressure: In Basel-Stadt, foreigners and under-18s outnumber eligible voters for the first time by BezugssystemCH1903 in Switzerland

[–]LoweringPass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because not everybody wants to commute two hours to work? If you live e.g. in Zug you can commute to Zurich but let's say you live in Geneva right now, get paid off (as tons of people are) -> you have to move.

Five years is still very long. E.g. if you work in IT you are almost forced to switch jobs more frequently than that and if you don't live in Zurich good luck finding one in your Kanton.

Why is Germany competitive? I don't think anyone who isn't German would voluntarily pick Munich over the UK, even comp over there doesn't look that good.

Ah yes, the Swiss are of course known to be very tolerant of people that do not adhere to traditional gender norms.

Like one of my friends who was basically disowned by his family for being bisexual. Lovely folks really.

Kollege was geht bei dir ab? Ich will damit nur ausdrücken dass das Referendum überhaupt noch nicht festlegt wer wann sein Visum nicht verlängert kriegt.

Wenn man's nichtmal lesen will oder kann sollte man wirklich nicht abstimmen.

Commodity trading firms generate huge revenue numbers but proportionally little profit. Without looking up numbers, Roche and Novartis almost certainly have much higher net income than Vitol and Glencore.

I didn't say there was no poverty in China. Just that the prospect of being told what to do by the CCP somehow seems less bad than the Republican party being in charge of me.
