* Am testat deconectand bateria la toate cele 3 mentionate. Bateria e absolut necesara cand vine primul spike altfel pica. Dispozitivele care trag mai intai din alimentare sunt foarte valoroase.

** Cand vine cate un downvote ploua de sus pana jos cu -1 in sectiunea comentarii. Unii simt ca isi pierd clientii daca afla lumea cum sa isi tina aparatele in viata.

Mai ales cand dau telefonu la copil.

Il pun sa stea cu el doar in priza.

Si apropo de aspiratoare automate:

Unele sunt construite foarte prost: am un aspirator automat care da curent inapoi in prize (daca tai curent in casa pot alimenta alt aspirator automat cu el prin prizele din casa). E ridicol. Problema la feature-ul asta e ca doua aspiratoare d-alea se descarca unu in altu pana la 0 (sunt unii care se intreaba de ce a cedat bateria la aspirator dupa cam un an): Solutia: il tin in priza DOAR pt incarcat, in rest scos.

This is bothering me, how I even play without internet?

Recently saw a "German-Market is brain-dead" from one year ago.

Mentioned German companies being shit, and big techs not hiring in Germany, but rather in Poland or Romania.

I think this was more true 2/3 years ago than it is today.

I run a job board that tracks all big tech hiring in Europe (as well as six-figure remote), and currently Germany is the 2nd country in Europe with the most hiring :/

Rank	Country	Jobs Listed
#1	United Kingdom	3510
#2	Germany	1424
#3	Ireland	1423
#4	Netherlands	718
#5	France	711
#6	Spain	588
#7	Poland	543
#8	Sweden	395
#9	Italy	310
#10	Romania	240

In terms of where these jobs are in Germany, here's the list of the top 10 cities in Europe with the most big tech / HFT / high-paying scaleups:

Rank	City	Jobs Listed
#1	London	2939
#2	Dublin	1294
#3	Amsterdam	647
#4	Berlin	525
#5	Paris	435
#6	Munich	409
#7	Warsaw	397
#8	Stockholm	339
#9	Madrid	248
#10	Bucharest	199

So basically 1/3 in Berlin, 1/3 in Munich, and 1/3 in other cities and/or Germany-remote.

German market is rebounding. At least comparatively to few years ago and to other European countries, within top-paying companies.

In general, the entire Western Europe area is rebounding.

One or two years ago, Amsterdam, Paris, German cities, they all sat below Warsaw, in this ranking.

But now things have stabilised a bit, and there's been a bit of rebounding.

EDIT

Many of you asked about data per capita. So I added a filter for that, here's the above ranks per capita (jobs per 1M residents):

🌍 Top 10 Countries by Big Tech Jobs Density (per 1M residents)

Rank	Country	Jobs / 1M
#1	Ireland	276.0
#2	United Kingdom	52.3
#3	Netherlands	40.8
#4	Sweden	37.8
#5	Switzerland	25.2
#6	Denmark	23.1
#7	Finland	22.9
#8	Germany	17.1
#9	Poland	14.6
#10	Romania	12.8

🏙️ Top 10 Cities by Big Tech Job Density

Rank	City	Jobs / 1M
#1	Dublin	2,208
#2	Amsterdam	715
#3	Zurich	402
#4	Stockholm	347
#5	London	334
#6	Munich	274
#7	Warsaw	217
#8	Paris	208
#9	Helsinki	153
#10	Berlin	143

What is even more important to mention IMO: the job board used to track engineering jobs only. Now it tracks product, design, business and ops too (still inside high-paying tech companies).

This partially explain why Germany and other Western European countries 'rebounded': cause that's where a lot of sales and product jobs are.

So I added a filter to select job type: if you filter to engineering jobs only, Warsaw climbs back to the 3rd spot (same as in the past couple of years).

But, Germany stays up: 3rd spot, even just for engineering jobs (up from 5th-6th last year).

So I think a bit of rebound in 2026 for big tech in western europe is real, at least a bit.

And so they could sell the whole game upfront

I mean after XBOX becomes a company owned by Microsoft.

And some of those investors could be me and you on some app. Would we be buying from ourselves?

Never
