Slightly off-topic, but that is a very nice quote by Vonnegut. I have been on a Vonnegut mood lately, and noticed that he was pretty keen on community and its role in a person's life.

I especially like this one as well:

"Humanist try to behave decently and honorably without any expectation of rewards or punishments in afterlife. Andsince the creator of the universe is unknowable to us so far, we serve as best as we can the highest abstraction ofwhich we have some understanding, which is our community."

His views on community have been slowly changing the way I interact with people.

In your opinion, what makes a non-trivial project? Can you give me some examples? I'm having some difficulties drawing a line between trivial and non-trivial projects. Although it's not that difficult to find things there are above my current skill level.

In general, replies were mostly that there was some competition and they decided not to continue with my application... but I have no idea how much of it is the usual form letter reply.

I moved here for studies, so what little network I had is back at my home country. I want to stay in Estonia after graduation and work here for a while, so I'm not sure how much an internship back in Turkey can help with that, if at all.
