I don't think I understand your comment, who has to pay a penalty? Who's stealing what? You can't do a same day resignation unless the company agrees. If they don't agree, they can ask you to keep working for 3 months, and if you don't come to work, they may declare you abandoned your job. Then, they don't have to pay you, but you're still officially an employee so you can't legally start a new contract, they may ask you for a compensation payment and also sue you for damage.

In France, the standard for software engineers is 3 months. Verified with this official source https://code.travail.gouv.fr/outils/preavis-demission. With convention "Bureaux d'études techniques, cabinets d'ingénieurs-conseils et sociétés de conseils".
It could make you miss you a job opening that needs someone earlier. Hadn't have the issue myself, but I guess it happens.
The British seem very happy with keeping the "-tre" ending but pronouncing it "-ter" for centuries.
To be fair this is a counterpart for being harder to get fired compared to some USA states. It makes the economy less fast to adjust but it makes people's life less stressful.
Yes there is, but very little subscribers and no activity. I think it's too niche to have the required critcal size with the current size of the Lemmy user base.
I have the same issue with Reddit, there's a middle size good quality subreddit about my specific job which is the best place on the internet to see news and discussions about it in one place. It helps me increase and test my knowledge a lot.
He just consumed one life, plenty more left.
I am from EU, especially one of those countries with free health care. I believe we have a mix of public research, private research (ex: Sanofi, Servier), expensive proprietary drugs and government controlled public domain generic drugs. But there was an alert recently on drug making sovereignty because no company is interested in making those less profitable generic drugs in France, so they are outsourced to cheaper countries and there's a risk of penury.
Ok, so we should be able to control the prices for drugs where the research has been publicly funded. But how do we avoid losing the private investors who contributed?
He does mention the fact that medicine research is hard and requires money but doesn't explain how to solve that. This is a big argument of big pharma prices, they say it finances future research. I think a good example is how incredibly fast we got a COVID vaccine. It happened because private investors had massively invested in research platforms and they invested because they are expecting gains.
Maybe choosing your poison? Viber belongs to the Japanese company Rakuten, so it may be more interesting geopolitically, depending on your country.
