Europe's biggest fear: A bank run they cannot stop

Surely not. What if people run into German banks? Then the German banks will be winners... right?

I almost care about this, but vinyl (limited edition or no) is such hipster nonsense anyway.

I suggest you ask on one of the LinkedIn groups devoted to social media. This subreddit isn't very active.

Now that Germany has access to free money - what should it do with it?

Coding is not important anyway.

Programmer salaries would tend to disagree with this notion.

We don't need more code, we need to solve problems.

And just how are we going to solve problems without writing some more code along the way?

You can't become a programmer if you only know a little bit of programming.

That's not really true - you can write spreadsheets.

Have you ever met a humanitarian who electrocutes cats? Read the question in context, please.

no, it does not.

Its government does, at least.

Iceland did not refuse to return the money, it refused to pay relatively high interests on the amount

It has refused any of the structured repayment plans that have been put forward. That is at least a technical default (and actionable under EFTA rules).

most of the money has now been repaid from the estates of the bankrupt banks.

You are right that some of the money has been repaid. But most? I'm not sure about that.

Gay people aren't unable to have their own children. Ever heard of artificial insemination?

Well, fortunately we have ways of making them pay - firstly, the EFTA court, and if that doesn't work, Iceland wants EU membership, and we won't give it to them unless they repay our money.
