Mickpl described the example of Areczek and Julka, who bought an apartment from a developer with an area of 38 m² for 400,000 PLN, before— as he wrote— subsidies for loans, mortgage holidays, and zero interest rates appeared. When apartment prices rose, the couple considered moving to a 78 m² unit, which had previously cost 800,000 PLN and was already valued at 1.2 million PLN according to the author. Mickpl presented a calculation, according to which selling the current apartment for 600,000 PLN and repaying a loan of 400,000 PLN would mean that the couple would still be short by about one million PLN. He argued that such difficulties in improving living conditions could have contributed to the lowest birth rate in the EU and the worst availability of flats in Poland. The author predicted that the housing market would eventually correct itself, but the children who were not born will not be born anymore. He added that the government might soon conclude that without bringing in 2–3 million immigrants, the system would collapse, and Warsaw would see a "Paris". #mieszkania #Polska #nieruchomości (translated)

Mickpl wrote that the rise in housing prices does not enrich a person who owns just one apartment and lives in it, because after selling it, they could buy a similar one. He added that wanting to buy a larger place, they would have to pay an extra 600,000 instead of 200,000. In his opinion, the rise in prices was not in the interest of about 98% of society. #nieruchomości #ekonomia #finanse (translated)

Mickpl recalled that last year the Sejm — after a large media storm — restored the so-called parking insert to the social housing law, which abolished parking minimums under the Lex Developer procedure. He wrote that the provision passed by two votes because Przemysław Wipler and his colleague in the Confederation voted differently. #polityka #prawo #sejm (translated)

Mickpl wrote that computer science graduates finishing their studies in 2026/27 find themselves in a difficult situation on the job market. He assessed that those starting their studies in 2021/22 could count on the prospect of an attractive career in an industry where recruitment was supposed to be easy, and employers offered, among other things, remote work and good salaries. According to Mickpl, currently very few employers hire juniors, who have to compete for the same positions not only with mid and senior level candidates. He recalled that previously, candidates only needed to answer three recruitment questions, and employers stated that they would teach them the rest after being hired. After two to three years of work, the salary was supposed to allow for a mortgage on an apartment in a good location, and after ten years — to pay it off. #informatyka #praca #absolwenci (translated)

Mickpl wrote that Stano boasted about Channel Zero's EBITDA at 25 million. He compared this amount with the results of BloomBit, a mobile game producer, and 11bit, which — as he noted — creates games outside the AAA segment. In his opinion, this is not much for a medium described as one of the greatest media forces in Poland, although he also acknowledged that Channel Zero is not a bad media product. The author pointed out that the problem of the Polish economy is, in his opinion, the lack of investors despite available capital. He assessed that the capitalization of the Polish stock market is low and depends on the decisions of Western investment banks. He also wrote that Poles invest money in apartments or keep it in non-interest-bearing checking accounts; according to him, half of the primary market in the seven largest cities goes to investment purposes. He compared the 19 percent tax on stock market profits with an 8.5 percent flat rate on rental income. Mickpl assessed that the economy relies on construction, despite the poor demographic situation and unfavorable forecasts. He stated that in the West, Channel Zero could already have three helicopters and a stock market debut behind it, and revenues from collaborations and royalties from YouTube would only be an additional gain. He presented this as an example, in his opinion, of a flawed system. #KanałZero #Gospodarka #Inwestycje (translated)

Mickpl wrote that during the Senate's work on the bill regulating Airbnb rentals, there was lobbying from three foundations. According to him, these organizations demanded a change in the definition of hotel services, which would allow funds that had announced plans to build hotels but ultimately built rental apartments to avoid paying a 23% VAT. The author noted that the argument raised was the possible negative effects on students. In his opinion, this referred to individuals renting rooms in private dormitories for 3,000 PLN. He added that signing lease agreements could provide tenants with protection, and the status of students was not to be verified. Mickpl indicated that comments could be submitted regarding print number 863, as well as concerning the cooperatives he had written about earlier. #airbnb #ustawa #wynajem (translated)

Mickpl cited a conversation between K. Pełczyńska and R. Witt about falling apartment prices and the blocking of the 0% loan. Pełczyńska said that for the first time in years, apartment prices were falling, and she and Poland 2050 contributed to the blocking of the program. She admitted that initially everyone opposed it and thanked internet users and people active on social media for arguing against allocating additional billions from the budget for subsidies to banks and developers. Witt asked if Pełczyńska was claiming exclusive credit for blocking the program. #mieszkania #kredyty #Polska2050 (translated)

Mickpl wrote that the wave of layoffs in corporations was just the beginning of larger changes that were to encompass shared services centers due to the development of AI. He argued that for the last 30 years, there had been no development of a domestic economy, and the outsourcing of services did not represent the future of any global sector. He predicted social and media unrest, as well as many vacant investment apartments, because — as he assessed — few young people would pay at least 3,000 for them. #gospodarka #praca #outsourcing (translated)

Mickpl wrote that in his opinion the problem of the country remained the representatives of the baby boomer generation in power, who came to it in the 90s. He claimed that initially they referred to solidarity, society, and the economy, but later reinforced solutions serving their own interests, not caring about what would happen after their departure. #polityka #pokolenie #społeczeństwo (translated)

Mickpl assessed that together with the Organized Group he significantly improved the debate on housing. He wrote that just two years earlier, the arguments revolved around the lack of land and the blame on administrative procedures, as well as calls to abolish building regulations. According to him, today more people see that the issues in the market are linked to speculation, the accumulation of land by corporate developers, the impact of short-term rentals on cities, and collectors owning 13 apartments. Criticizing the idea of abolishing standards, he stated that the lack of a bathroom requirement could lead to the emergence of investment apartments with a shared toilet on the floor, even in the center of Warsaw. He added that “GW” could present such a solution as a new trend among young people. He acknowledged that the situation could still improve, but significant progress had already been made. #mieszkalnictwo #debaty #spekulacja (translated)

Mickpl wrote that in light of the financial deficit, politicians should consider a progressive tax on the third apartment, and in the case of companies — starting from the first one. He believed that such a solution should be obvious to all parties and to people with centrist views. #podatki #finanse #polityka (translated)

Mickpl wrote that the Platform decided that only the housing community can decide on the ban on short-term rentals in the building, not the cooperative. He asked where such a distinction comes from and suggested that its reasons are widely known. #mieszkalnictwo #wspólnoty #krótkijnajem (translated)

Mickpl wrote that Vladimir Putin was a war criminal and that the Russian invasion of Ukraine had no basis in international law or common sense. He believed that Ukraine should be supported, as it was in the interest of both that country and Europe. He also assessed that Ukrainian immigrants were the best immigrant group that Poland has ever had and will have. #Putin #Ukraina #PomocDlaUkrainy (translated)

Mickpl wrote that TVN received a warning in connection with a report from six months ago, which — as he put it — encouraged buying apartments. According to the author, over 200 complaints were received. He found it the funniest part of the matter that the "Developer Institute," which the station referenced, did not exist. He added that viewers remembered the story of a woman from Dekpol who appeared in the report as a client of that company. https://t.co/iBdUxYTs34 #TVN #reportaż #mieszkania (translated)

Mickpl described a scenario in which someone invents the phrase "bloody Friday," and children get worked up and spend several hours a day on social media. According to him, the algorithm increases the reach of content that intermingles with material generated by AI. He added that among 200,000 minors, there could be a few individuals with disorders who would come with knives. He stated that video games would be blamed for such a turn of events. #grykomputerowe #bezpieczeństwo #psychologia (translated)

Mickpl wrote that there is no need to further convince the recipients and asked to fix the issue of the "cooperative in the Senate." He claimed that even during the People's Republic of Poland, it was not possible to gather a 50 percent quorum, and he ended his entry with an ironic thank you. https://t.co/6SLCDQyiqW #Senat #Polska #spółdzielnie (translated)

Mickpl wrote that in less than three years, Wykop shrank from a portal with over 100,000 active users to a service that perhaps 800 people used, and its traffic resembled that of a local county portal. The author admitted that he regretted this change. He noted that the prevailing opinion of Wykop was as a place that was extremely unfriendly, but he did not fully agree with it. He described the site as a unique place where alongside an anecdote from an employee of a Norwegian laboratory about polymer synthesis, a post from Mariusz from Brighton could appear, who published a picture of his room after waking up from drinking. According to Mickpl, a similar community will not arise again in the Polish internet. He wrote that users grew up with the portal, took different paths, and later met there again, like a class reunion after years. He added that the rapid downfall of Wykop will be discussed in textbooks as an example of how not to manage a social media platform. #Wykop #społeczność #Internet (translated)

Mickpl wrote that after the stir caused by the regulations prohibiting Airbnb in cooperatives adopted by the Sejm, he checked which other resolutions of the cooperatives required a quorum of half of their members. The list he presented did not include any items. #sejm #airbnb #spółdzielnie (translated)

Mickpl wrote that there are over 100 housing cooperatives operating in Krakow, in which more than 350,000 people live, which is almost half of the city's population. He asked M. Piątkowska to inform them this coming Saturday that in practice they will not be able to decide on a ban on short-term rentals. According to the author, the Sejm granted such authority exclusively to housing communities, which was mainly meant to apply to buildings constructed after 1997, and this was a decision of the KO. He added that in cooperatives a quorum covering half of all members would be needed to adopt such a resolution. #Kraków #spółdzielnie #najm (translated)

Mickpl wrote that the Sejm rejected the amendment that would eliminate the requirement for a quorum of half the members of the entire cooperative to ban rentals through Airbnb. He added ironically that the residents of the cooperative may be forced to rent a nearby stadium for voting. https://t.co/2qO0I3x6fa #Sejm #airbnb #spółdzielnia (translated)
