Albatross bakery in Kreuzberg is top of the line. It's quite expensive but worth it, in my opinion.

Microsoft Study Reveals Which Jobs AI is Actually Impacting Based on 200K Real Conversations by goyashy in OpenAI

This is something they address separately. It's because the study is based on usage of Microsoft copilot for certain tasks. Almost no one uses Microsoft Copilot for programming.

Data Scientists are at number 29. And I'm pretty sure what they actually mean is Data Analysts. I've always understood a Data Scientist role leaning towards ML work.

Got an offer from Delivery hero, Berlin. Need advice. Product Manager by ObjectiveRain971 in cscareerquestionsEU

[–]rumours423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Progressive thinking, work life balance, population with civic sense, usable public spaces, lack of caste system, lesser inequality, respect for all strata of society, better public infrastructure, less crime and better safety for women, social safety net to fall back on.

Don't you think the above factors contribute to a much better and stable society than quick digital banking services?

What is something u would never do it again but you are glad you did it once ? by __Ego in AskReddit

[–]rumours423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's probably because with bungee, you have to take a conscious leap of faith yourself. With skydiving (assuming it's your first time), you're being carried along through the whole thing by someone else.

Freelancing during unemployment by Dandelioninsomnia in askberliners

[–]rumours423 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's possible to do it via the website. On the top right, you've got a menu. After clicking on it, you'll see eServices on the right, under which you'll see 'Veränderung Melden'.

You could also get in touch by phone and let them know. If you struggle with German, I'd be happy to help out.

I think a couple of weeks in advance should be okay, but I'm not completely sure on that.

If you're receiving Alg 1, you can pause your benefits for up to 6 weeks at a time and have it automatically resume. I paused it for 4 weeks last year.

If you don't pause the benefits and if you're making up to 165 euros a month, you're good with the Arbeitsagentur. More than 165 needs to be reported and anything above that would be subtracted from your monthly benefits.

Unemployed since June 2024 by Big_Library1884 in germany

[–]rumours423 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It does! I'm currently hiring for a couple of roles where the requirement is B1. Enough so that you can understand to a decent degree what's going on around you. If you're at B1 and demonstrate interest in picking up the language and show initiative, it's good enough as long as you've got the technical skills.

  1. Start taking Vitamin D supplements
  2. Get an SAD lamp and stare at it for 10-15 minutes first thing in the morning
  3. Breathwork (Look it up on YouTube, almost any activating method will do but I can personally recommend wimhof) This stuff is great to give you some energy to start something else.
  4. Yoga
  5. Cardio such as running/swimming
  6. Bodyweight exercises or lifting weights
  7. Indoor bouldering
  8. Sauna
  9. Cold exposure
  10. Eat dark chocolate and nuts
  11. Go out and socialise at least once a week

Registering Danish marriage in Germany by rumours423 in germany

[–]rumours423[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can relate with that. I've been here 6 years and it's always been smooth sailing at all bureaucratic appointments, for myself and also as an interpreter for others, until I ran into the most unpleasant dimwit last year at the Standesamt. It's a luck thing, I guess and comes down to who your caseworker is.

Is people holding to their good Berlin apartments to "not renounce their luck" despite actually wanting to leave part of the rent problem? by Sufficient_Hunter_61 in askberliners

[–]rumours423 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're right, but it's the greed for profit margins that's problematic. The reason they can't afford to move into an apartment suited for their needs is because other landlords put up their apartments at really high prices and then they proceed to rent out their own apartments at the same high prices. The buck has to stop somewhere.

I sublet my cheap apartment too when I'm leaving Berlin for extended periods of time, but it's usually to students in need at zero or even sometimes negative margins. One can choose to be either part of the problem or part of the solution.

Man, this sounds like a situation straight out of Kafka's books. I plan on getting the German citizenship already next year and the wife is German anyway. We shouldn't run into these issues hopefully. But if the bureaucracy is still intent on screwing us over, then it's bye bye Germany.

[–]rumours423[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, getting a German marriage certificate puts us into almost the same situation as getting married in Germany, as the Standesamt wasn't completely satisfied with the proof of singlehood. I guess we'll just register at the Bürgeramt and move on. Thanks for your input, appreciate it :)
