Abgesehen davon, dass bürokratische Mühlen langsam mahlen: kann mir jemand mit mehr Sachverstand aufzeigen, was diese Feststellung in der Praxis bedeutet? Ist das ein relevanter Schritt für ein Verbot oder rüttelt das an der Finanzierung?
Thanks so much for the concise and informative overview. Here’s to hoping that the Romanian voters chose wisely.
In der Kita meiner Tochter gibt es zwei männliche Erzieher (beide mit Migrationshintergrund) und einen männlichen Praktikanten. Für die Kinder ist das auch einfach normal und wird gar nicht hinterfragt. Ich finde das sehr wertvoll, dass von Anfang an vermittelt wird die Kinderbetreuung ist nicht allein Frauensache.
Bisher habe ich nur von einem Vorfall mitbekommen, bei dem die Familie (mit Migrationshintergrund) Stress damit hatte, dass ihre kleine Tochter von einem Mann betreut wird. Ansonsten aber in bisher zwei Jahren nie irgendwelche Zwischenfälle bemerkt - es ist ja auch ehrlicherweise schwachsinnig einem Erzieher irgendwas zu unterstellen nur aufgrund seines Geschlechts.
Can a Romanian person with a good understanding of this shit show please give the rest of us a solid rundown of how the second election is likely to pan out?
OSM is a great project. It’s the basis for a lot of different tools and as such really needs to continue to be independent from American tech bros.
From the experience of a friend of mine: if you are of European descent, try finding out about your lineage and if that can somehow get you a European citizenship.
A friend of mine, who is Mexican, wanted to remain in Germany after finishing her Master’s degree, since she had a German boyfriend and generally believed her prospects were better here. While it’s possible for non EU citizens to get a work visa, the requirements are very high. She ended up applying for Spanish citizenship, since one of her grandparents had emigrated from Spain. After getting the Spanish EU citizenship, everything was a breeze. She didn’t need any further paperwork, could remain in Germany indefinitely and apply for any job that doesn’t specifically require German citizenship (such as some public service jobs).
Similarly another friend of mine, who is Brazilian, now holds German citizenship, despite not speaking a single word of German. He’s fluent in French though and has found work in Luxembourg easily.
Therefore, if at all possible, try getting any EU citizenship via your grandparents/great grandparents. It will open the door to living and working in any EU country without ever needing a visa or work permit.
Perhaps they will be able to meet up in the afterlife soon, since I believe both of them are likely heading in the same direction there.
The problem with using AI assisted coding in my experience is that you might save time in the short term, you will spend months sorting through the inefficient and error probe spaghetti to unburden your product from all the AI induced technical debt. Use AI as a research tool or as inspiration for potential solutions, never as a copy/paste type of deal
I dread the elections in France in 2027. France is one of the last bastions of Freedom that is capable of standing up to the authoritarian states if push comes to shove. The last few presidential elections have moved France closer and closer to having a Kremlin sock puppet in charge. While they have managed to pull back from the brink a few times, it only needs to go wrong once.
Thanks for sharing! Concerning logistics when travelling I can also share my experience.
I travel on a Dutch passport and my children, while also having Dutch citizenship, travel on German passports because that is where we live and where my wife is from. They also use my wife’s German last name. Therefore, when travelling, my kids and I have different names and nationalities. For some reason nobody ever questioned any of that. I keep a copy of the birth certificate just in case though.
I don’t want to excuse Netanyahu here. He certainly belongs behind bars in my opinion. However, he only holds a part of the world hostage rather than all of it. I see him on par with folks like Kim Jon Un or Mohamed bin Salman rather than Trump or Putin.
The answer will likely depend on the place in the world and even on the cultural background of individuals getting married. I’ll just share my experience.
We got married out of convenience. While it’s technically possible to arrange the bulk of the legal stuff with various contracts, it is just easier to use the “default contract” that already covers the most common use case. Some legal arrangements, for example cuts to inheritance tax or the right to remain silent when asked about your spouse in legal proceedings, are only available for “real” marriages.
Once we decided to have children we looked into the various arrangements needed to make that work and quickly found out that marriage is the easiest way to sort everything out. In our day to day life nothing really changed. In legal terms quite a lot is now different.
By the way, as others have mentioned, getting married isn’t expensive. All we paid was the administrative fee which was something like 50 Euros.

You can (and some do) insist, that all phones and other digital devices be left outside or out in a well isolated place like a fridge. Furthermore you can use methods of encryption for both physical notes and digital notes. Neither is completely safe from being compromised, but then again hardly anything truly is.
If you want to be fairly certain to not be monitored, always leave digital devices behind and have meetings in varying locations with few or ideally no other people around. Only discuss confidential information with people you know and trust. Even then, experience from places like East Germany proves, nothing is truly safe from being compromised if enough time and energy is spent on the issue.
