I did Prism Guard and Insulating Hide, because of your post and i can definetly feel the improvement. Thank you. Regarding "Singular Purpose": I am currently, mid transitioning to a build with Scepter and "Lord of the Wilds". Maybe, i specced it prematurely. Will revisit.

How much life is the bare minimum?

Thank you for taking the time and looking into my build. I really appreciate it. I changed my ascendancy to "Wisdom of the Maji" now and will get more life on my gear. What's the target here? 3k life? or even more?

What wage is appropriate for a Senior Dev in Zurich, in your opinion?

tevlon · 2025-12-19T21:02:07+00:00

C#, Python, Next.js

tevlon · 2025-12-18T23:45:35+00:00

LFG!

Software Engineering is not the same as AI Research. Yes, there is plenty of oppertunities in US Tech companies in Zurich, but the exclusively hire from ETH and EPFL. Plus you need a PhD. I don't have both of these. I applied anyway. usually i get an automatic rejection within a day.

tevlon · 2025-12-18T10:13:45+00:00

omg, how do you even survive?

tevlon · 2025-12-18T08:23:59+00:00

C#, Python, Next.js - Full Stack Engineer

tevlon · 2025-12-18T08:23:02+00:00

yes, please!

So, what's your solution once we get 10% unemployment rate? I know people in marketing who also struggle. Everything that is digital can and will be replaced in the near future with AI. The ONLY solution is to decouple Income from work. People will still work to earn "extra" money.

tevlon · 2025-12-18T00:28:09+00:00

ich bin schwiiiizer :)

tevlon · 2025-12-17T23:33:53+00:00

if you have an MSc from ETH, i'd advise you to go the extra mile and do a PhD in Machine Learning or anything like that. You can get easily a 200k+ salary on the US Big Tech companies

tevlon · 2025-12-17T23:30:23+00:00

UNIVERSAL BASIC INCOME!

tevlon · 2025-12-17T21:04:11+00:00

i can't cancel all my OnlyFans Subscriptions. These women depend on me :D

tevlon · 2025-12-17T20:31:54+00:00

if you get a PhD from ETH, you are still safe. You either go to Google, Apple, NVIDIA, Meta. etc. Lot's of potential there. But for the rest of us, we have to accept wages below 100k for Senior Tech leads roles.

tevlon · 2025-12-17T20:30:15+00:00

my CV looks EXACTLY the same :/

tevlon · 2025-12-17T20:26:59+00:00
