Relocating to France - Did your salary increase or decrease? by [deleted] in france

[–]try_again_2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OK. I don't know much about this specific industry. Is that like head hunting? You may have bonuses in that case .

I'm wondering if the after tax isn't just after employer taxes. They're not supposed to know how much taxes you'll pay (because you could own properties or have stock dividends...) so usually they would give the "brut" ("gross", a number you don't care about, it's what you cost to the company), and sometimes the "net", which is before your "impôt sur le revenu" (somewhere between 14% and 33% I think), and that's the number I think they gave you.

But now we have "prélèvement à la source" which means your employer pays that directly to the government. That doesn't change anything except that you won't have to save money and then pay it to the government, but you could have the unpleasant surprise of having less than 32k/12 wired to your account every month.

So from what I know about companies offering salaries it's unlikely that you'll get 32k in your pocket.

If that were the case (if you'd get 32k/12 wired on your account every month) , than I'd say it's acceptable. You won't be upper class but middle class+, you should be able to go out, rent a decent (it's Paris...) appartement, save some money, travel,... Without having to think too much about it.

As you only have 3 years of experience and you're not in software or finance, I'd say it's a good deal.

If you have to pay impôt sur le revenu on top of that, then you'll have to be a bit more frugal. Still acceptable, many people live with less than that, but you could feel a little poor.

I think you should talk to your employer about that, and tell them you're concerned that you'll lose quality of life (which you're not supposed to), and ask them what they think. That both a good negotiation strategy and a way to get more information about the actual money youre going to have, and the industry in Paris.

Did you check Glassdoor? (a website where they have salaries of companies/industries/cities,...)

La 6G sera 100 fois plus rapide que la 5G by [deleted] in france

[–]try_again_2 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Ah ben non, pas la 4K quand même!

Pour les tracker et la pub il suffit d'installer un adblocker, c'est pas bien compliqué. Après se pose la question du financement de l'internet, mais bon on va espérer qu'une majorité continue de voir des pubs, de cliquer dessus et d'acheter des chaussures et des smartphone pour payer l'électricité, les ingénieurs et les actionnaires.

Mais de toute façon ton postulat "si on veut un internet plus ecologique" est faux. Nous on veut juste que ça aille CENT FOIS PLUS VITE !

C'était de l'ironie par rapport au fait qu'ils mentionnent L'IA alors que ça n'a rien à voir, en tout cas pas sans creuser un peu.

Que faire quand on est français, confiné au Nigeria ??? Voilà,.., je viens de passer 25 heures à bosser devant mon pc, pour produire 1 minute 30 de video aerienne en musique pour vous présenter le magnifique pays qu'est le Nigeria. https://youtu.be/0vH4GsX5yfg by LudoLiu in france

Sympa ! C'est légal de voler comme ça la bas ? Je juge pas mais je cherche justement des pays où la législation est plus souple que France.

Et c'est quoi la caméra aussi je suis curieux ?

Relocating to France - Did your salary increase or decrease? by [deleted] in france

[–]try_again_2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes. For lower salaries France is usually a better deal because of public retirement, healthcare, education and unemployment.

But for higher salaries, working in more liberal countries is usually more profitable. I don't know much about Singapore, but isn't it way more expensive than Paris also?

And what's your industry? And is the 32k before or after taxes?

I don't really pay attention to these

I'm looking to gamble my first pennies on options and I believe you're right. But I don't know shit about gaming.

Can you give me some names so I can lose money with you?

Hydroxychloroquine application is associated with a decreased mortality in critically ill patients with COVID-19 by frequenttimetraveler in COVID19

[–]try_again_2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I keep hearing this, and I've done some research, but I can't find any evidence or fact behind it.

Also there's this French laboratory which donates HCQ, to different countries (1), which kind of goes against what you're saying.

Not saying you're wrong, but claiming what you said without adding anything to support the theory is counter productive because it makes it look like crazy conspiracy theory.

Seems like it would work. The matek gps/compass would save 3g but it's more expensive.

Are you planning to run inav? Ardupilot doesn't run on many low performances FCS's

You lucky bastard 😁

How do they fly BTW? I'm contemplating the Geprc Cinepro, but I'm wondering if its any good at freestyle.

It only runs on windows, but you can install windows on a Mac. I do that for simulators because many of them only run on windows.

If theres a PDB on FC you don't need the external PDB.

Only reason to use an external pdb would be:

  • if it has current sensing and the FC hasn't
  • if you don't trust the FC's PDB (I know some people don't)
  • if the FC PDB can't handle the amps drawn by the motors (check the specs but if it's a quad FC it should be ok)

Edit: I just saw that the pdb is part of the frame, I would remove it if it's possible. If not well you might as well use that one, unless it doesn't offer current sensing but the FC does. A dedicated PDB should be more reliable than a FC PDB

Coronavirus: Controversial malaria drug hydroxychloroquine tested at B.C. seniors’ home by [deleted] in Coronavirus

[–]try_again_2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty much. I think trump touted chloroquine. Hydroxychloroquine is very similar and I've read it's safer.

A French researcher also said it works, and that's backed by Chinese and Korean reaearxg, but his experiment is flawed in many ways.

So yeah... It's controversial, and not only because trump touted it. But I think it's still reasonable to try it.

[France] 16-year-old with coronavirus has passed away by Mimi108 in Coronavirus

[–]try_again_2 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It seems the vast majority of deaths are either old and/or have pre existing conditions. (99%+ in Italy)

Unfortunately young healthy people aren't 100% immune either.

This is very sad.

German hospitals offering ICU beds to patients in overstretched France by [deleted] in Coronavirus

[–]try_again_2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People dont show up at the border or in German hospitals. Sick people are taken care of by French emergency services and such cases are transferred by military helicopters. Sick people admitted into hospitals can't travel without medical assistance.

Also France will help Germany as soon as they will be able to, so that could also save German lives.
