Wouldn't that be wonderful, so see the greatest brain-drain in human history. Couldn't happen to nicer people.
Is this why Elon is pushing for anti-immigration parties in the EU? He doesn't want people to leave?
Of course he doesn't want people to leave, how can he be king if all his serfs leave?
Their schools were already orders of magnitude cheaper. Get ready for extreme brain drain!
Completely free. Kind of. It's like less than €200 a year to study at a university in Finland.
This is true only for students from the EU/ETA area: for students from outside it is a minimum of 1500€/year to study in a school of higher education.
Which is still cheap for many Americans.
I'm hoping to get into a pretty well regarded game dev school in Sweden that is $25k USD for the entire degree. Comparing it with anything similar in the US is mind boggling. Schools here are impossibly expensive
That's still pricey imo
University in Sweden is free for swedish citizens, it used to be free for foreign students as well, but since some years ago the universities are allowed to put fees on foreign students. Dont remember the exact details of how it works. Edit: looked it up, still free for people from EU, EES and Switzerland, and people living in Sweden with a resident permit.
Future games, innit? The one the ceo of the company that made It Takes Two finished?
It's mind boggling to me that this school exists. I mean they have the achievements of the alumni to schow, so good for them.
But still it's a paid school for game dev, famous for crunch, and worse salary than "normal" dev. So not only will you work more, and earn less, you also have to pay for your studies, since standard CS is free.
Living somewhere else is quite tempting in a grass is greener way, but it feels like moving out of my house because of pests. What I'd really rather do is eradicate the pests and get my home back. Even if I move, how long until I have to suffer new pests? Meanwhile the more sane of the two completely out of touch parties that comprise my government are like my housemate, and they keep leaving food wrappers and shit all over the place and they refuse to call an exterminator because it would be "cruel". But these no-kill traps ain't doing shit. Figuratively speaking, of course.
Sometimes you gotta move out and leave your roommate alone in the mess, for them to hopefully realize that they are the problem
I couldn't have said it better myself, I will definitely steal that analogy. Moving to another country is such an extreme step, because it means giving up everything I have here and adjusting to new people, new culture, new language, new everything. I'd rather my home stay pest-free.
Of course we'd rather it stays pest free. For if you have black mold, would you stay there and have health consequences for rest of your life, your children and all. Or would you just think I'll abandon this, it's gonna cost a lot to give up the furniture and everything that you have build up over the years but it's not important than your life. Specifically as a non-white person where even your residence status isn't protecting you anymore.
And this current thing isn't the problem it's a symptom of a problem so deep, I don't really see us getting back to normal anytime soon. We might mitigate it, or maybe it'll get so bad people will realize the actual problems and work towards solving it. I just don't have energy to be that optimistic. I really wish people would be more empathetic, think about the community and be altruistic enough to address the bigger problem. But I don't see that happening.
Orange Diaper is burning my country’s goodwill to the ground and I’m so happy to see the rest of the world telling us to fuck off, and more importantly fucking with Americas wallet.
Consequences for bad behavior is the only way it ever gets corrected.
They look like they’re being told to smile or a family member will be killed.
I've spoken to some Fins and it's being that close to another human being causing that.
/S but only slightly
I'm from Finland. It's late winter now. It's not Smiling Season yet.
No no the guy is making a face like "I came here to fart don't follow me" and she's all "I came here to smell it"
Say less, I'm omw
