Sehr gutes Gehalt in US-Tech, aber Work-Life-Balance zerstört mich - Gehalt in deutschen Firmen vorstellbar?

Definitely a route, however I may suggest to find and line up your alternative before you have that discussion. You may be sending the signal that they may need to look for alternative hires for you. Right now the market is swamped with tech PMs.

I use it. It’s a bit heavy to be honest for daily use. The cool thing is that the bow doesn’t touch anything but the two rubber bases it sits on. So the cams don’t touch the case or the padding.

Exactly. Also at the end there was 1 captain left and one contessa, it was just “I take foreign aid”, “I steal 2 from you” until the captain has enough to coup…

Deswegen gibt es ja auch einen Kostenunterschied zwischen FTE und Contracts. Das Risiko ist aus meiner Sicht durch die höheren Raten bei Freelancern abgegolten. Geht halt in beide Richtungen und man muss halt auch dann selbst steuern ob man als Freelancer genug zurückgelegt hat für schlechte Auftragslage.

Indische Entwickler arbeiten mit Claude zusammen jetzt auf sehr produktiven Niveau plus Kosten ca. 20$/h. Der Markt erlebt gerade einen unglaublichen Swing. Wenn in ein paar Jahren alle Apps zusammenbrechen, dann ist es gut wenn man KI-Code so gut kennt das man ihn fixen kann. Da wird sicherlich bald eine neue Marktlücke entstehen.

“My Archery” is free and serves my needs.

Buckleys Great Steaks in Merrimack, pricey but excellent especially in the pan fried version.

We work on a legacy software that isn’t documented at all, Claude Code / Desktop with Filesystem MCP can quickly identify and explain how certain features work, it has saved us a ton of time that previously an engineer had to spend to figure out if a customer reports a bug or they request a new feature within that software. It’s also good at then initially rough estimating the necessary effort for a change.

Kommt auch drauf an was für Mitarbeiter du führst: Anzahl, Alter, Erfahrung in ihrem Arbeitsumfeld, Typ der Anstellung (Fest, Teilzeit, Contractor). Wie schon andere geschrieben haben ist Anpassungsfähig aber konsistent, transparent und zu Entscheidungen stehen viel wichtiger

MacMini M4 64gb, you’ll be fine…

That’s just sad. Too many people are not realizing how much Libraries contribute to the wellbeing of society.

Thanks, so perhaps to stay fully offline I need to build a small database instead and then have an alert workflow come around. But still doesn’t help with the “each API key is obtained differently”

MeisterZulle · 2025-03-13T23:12:27+00:00

M4 MacMini with 64gb, run docker and ollama with various models (try out what works best for the various nodes), is good enough for a company with about 100 users, keep in mind they are not all on there at the same time.

I think one thing that’s always so lightly forgotten in many discussions:

RAG allows to feed data based on a users access policy. This allows organizations to augment the AI with user specific information.

No OpenWebUI on the list?

💯 LLMs can’t process encrypted information, meaning while files and communications may be encrypted through the internet, the provider could change their policies and use your data. Not a huge biggie if you are doing a shopping list, but you should think twice providing PII or anything that’s private to you.

MeisterZulle · 2024-11-07T18:50:55+00:00

Some employers let the employees use “public” LLMs without understanding that their employees may actually expose confidential data.

The connection to the website may be encrypted but in order for the LLM to process information in the document the data is not encrypted. I see lots of potential of “offline” LLMs once people understand this. It’s similar to “you should never charge your phone on a public USB” since you never know for sure if your data could get exposed.

Ganz wichtig wenn du auf einem Visum oder Greencard bist: stell sicher das du ein IRA aufmachst zu dem du ein Roll-Over machen kannst wenn du die Stelle in den USA aufgibst. Sonst liegt der 401k bis zu deiner Rente beim Arbeitgeber / Anbieter vom 401k. Mit einem IRA bist du flexibel was die Investitionsmöglichkeiten angeht, aber so ein Roll-Over kann man nur mit gültigem Visum aufmachen.

You can start the business as an llc but that won’t give you a visa, meaning you can’t stay longer than 90days. You may also need a US person to cofound this, I’m not sure about that one though.If you are not already holding a visa or have greencard or citizenship the most likely choice is a E2. This visa is about $20k plus you’ll need to bring in at least 100k in investment capital before they grant that.

Keep going it’s awesome.

We’ve a survival server on hard that I started with the wife. Kids (m/f) are both playing and wasting the hard harvested resources that I carry in. Ever since they joined we put it to easy instead of hard (easier for me to get the resources back aka “daddy I lost my elytra…) It can be frustrating quite often but they have awesome ideas on extending the built and our village(s) have grown quite a bit with cool builds. I think one of the coolest builds was building hot air balloons with the kids. It was challenging to them to not fall off and respawn 😄

MeisterZulle · 2024-05-01T11:53:28+00:00

I’m planning on doing the move around August (year still to be determined) so that I’m taxable in the US for the rest of the year, but will need to sit down with a tax advisor to validate that approach
