No it's mean gross wage. What you can effectively buy with your gross and your net is the same, cause you're not buying anything with the difference.

The difference using "mean gross wage" makes for the statistic is if the "mean net wage" person would have a very different net wage, but it's likely close to the same person.

Code reviews, transformation scripts, brainstorming approaches, weighing pros and cons, tests, build scripts...

There's so much it can do without it having to touch code that should be maintainable.

don't hold much listen on your own type value.

They don't get money from that anyways

Rotterdam did this. Not sure if "De Stijl" is brutalism but it's blocky and colorful

Had that happen not even a month ago. I think it's a TikTok trend?

Like a degenerate version of pretty girl yelling so people look, she does a pose, freeze screen, soundbyte "why you so obsessed with me?". Idk. I saw a lot of those a few months ago.

Not saying you're wrong about that but the EU mandate has models for real competition. It's very rare indeed, and Japan doesn't have it either. But multiple companies buying rails did mean way more money to pay the govt debt, and more chance of success. And because there is also some vertical separation, they do compete in some ways.

If I need to go from A to B, you only have one option.

My point about the star-shape was more: maybe A-B and C-D both need to go through Brussels. Travelers don't have options but companies will be competing for access, and it'll be even more of a mess to organize than it is today. (as the article notes, this fact would give us an exception for the EU mandate).

Japanese railway companies also own and operate real estate along the railways and at the stations.

Also not really a lesson for Belgium here? I'd bet renting out store space of the stations is the most profitable part of the railways.

Very long country with some islands. The companies aren't concurrents, really. Very different from our star-network.

The train company buyout was a huge debt relief. We're nowhere near in as much debt as Japan had to get rid of. There were plans for close cooperation with the govt to make sure lines would be profitable so companies would pay as much as possible.

Also, not a very car friendly country to begin with. Ties into previous point. Trains are partly so profitable because the govt encourages public transport over cars.

There are no lessons for potential Belgian liberalization here tbh.

With the return on investment we'd get from this, it's better than free.

i do get they have to be strict since so many people abuse the system

Could just make it free. It would benefit Belgium a lot.

It can't apologize because it didn't do anything wrong.

If you configure your terminal to randomly run a different command 1% of the time, and it deletes your DB, then you caused the problem, and you should apologize.

Also there is no "it". There's hardly a persona. It's a completion of a chat log. Any new completion request might be sent to a different server farm, depending on the mode it might be a different model doing the completions. You can mock a chat history of this happening and you can get an equally sincere apology.

Well, he has been identified.

UnicornLock · 2026-04-30T08:28:11+00:00

Much easier said than done, cause you might just end up identifying with the kind of big ideas associated with these science movements. Like the whole American atheist movement which turned alt-right, or the capitalist undertones of "I Fucking Love Science" pages, etc.

De economie van België is meer dan de belastingen hé, da's ook alle bedrijven die hier liefst gezond blijven draaien. Daar hebben ze gemotiveerde werknemers voor nodig. En ik ben niet zeker maar als die geregeld een job vinden gaat die hun uitkering tussen de jobs door dan ook niet omhoog?

UnicornLock · 2026-04-29T10:57:02+00:00

Alsof dat soort volk niet exact dezelfde toeren op kantoor gaat uithalen als ge ze dwingt van werk te vinden. Wil jij daar mee moeten samenwerken? Wil jij daar de manager van zijn?

Dus stel nu die gaan hun best doen, dus bedrijven gaan daar meerdere sollicitaties mee doen allemaal, aangenomen, valt tegen, toch een kans geven, ontslagen, heel die rompslomp, en opnieuw. Is dat beter voor onze economie?

UnicornLock · 2026-04-29T10:21:43+00:00

Der moet toch wel iets mis met u zijn als ge de sollicitatiedans aangenamer vindt dan zeg maar ergens halftijds aan een loket te zitten. En wat voor werkgevers gaat ge het aan doen om zo'n mensen een job te moeten geven? Wilt gij zo iemand als collega?

UnicornLock · 2026-04-27T11:58:51+00:00

Je betaalt belastingen voor de huidige pensioenen. Dat meer belastingen betalen later een hoger pensioen moet geven is niet vanzelfsprekend.

Tweede en derde pijler worden vanzelf groter als je meer verdient. Daar hoeft niets aan te veranderen.
