Is it legal to work in one european country (Germany) part time and get a Stipend to study in a different country?

Hello everyone! I currently work full-time in Germany, however from the coming October I was awarded a Stipend to study in another european Country and do a Research Masters. My employer allowed me to reduce my working hours to 2days/ week and live in this other country until I finish my Masters, which will take approximately 10 months (from October to July).

It is necessary for me to get the Stipend, because if I dont, then I will have to pay the fees of the university and I cannot afford to do that when only working 2days/week. In the country where I will be studying the Stipend is Tax Free (even if you have another job on top of it). Now, I dont mind paying taxes if I need to. I am just wondering how I should handle this very complex tax situation and if it is even legal to keep my job in Germany and temporarily study (and get paid for it) in another european country. Quitting my job is not an option because I am in the middle of a very important project and they said that they dont know if they can wait until I finish with my studies to rehire me.

Has anyone been in a similar situation and know how to navigate something like this? Does anyone know if this is legal?

Should you let typescript infer your types?

I am reading the book "Programming Typescript" by Boris Cherny https://ebooks.karbust.me/Technology/Programming%20TypeScript%20-%20Boris%20Cherny%20-%20O%E2%80%99Reilly%20(2019).pdf

In page 21 it specifically says and I quote: "In general, it is good style to let TypeScript infer as many types as it can for you, keeping explicitly typed code to a minimum."

As a Java developer, this makes me very nervous to see. Is this a convention you see in a lot of production code bases? Is this a pattern you should follow or is there many "gotchas".

What are some real world examples where using concurrency in Java helped?

I have never worked with concurrency, but I have read several examples on the internet, and I wanted to hear if anyone has any examples of real-world apps where they used concurrency and what there was to watch out for?

Am I using LLMs wrong for coding?

I would like to preface this by saying that I am genuinely curious about how other teams work and whether we are not efficient enough.

A few of my good friends are also developers. They often tell me that Claude codes most of the features for them, it also does their reviews and they rely on prompting their coding standards on CLAUDE.md for instance.

The thing is that often, when I rely heavily on Claude to generate code for small features, it quite often makes crazy mistakes. Some examples:

- We use ORMs and QueryDSL to write type safe queries: if a query joins more than 2,3 tables and has complex logic, it almost always does it wrong

- It quite often makes small performance mistakes, like iterating the same multiple times, generating a lot of garbage methods which dont handle data efficiently etc

Do you think my team and I are using it wrong or the hype just .. a hype?
