But what's the notice period? 3-6 months may be enough to kill a pivoting company when otherwise IP and team could be packaged up and sold off. One of the things people seem complain about on HN is that founders of failed companies in

I just want to point out how insane this tax pressure is based on a number I saw today for the first time. 2.2 million Danes are about to receive the equivalent of a 180USD stimulus check. To qualify, you have to have received public benefi

Most of my friends rent. And don't tell anyone, but I've let one back into their apartment before ;)

In the case of locksmiths, yes, because it's easy to open most consumer locks. I just can't do it for friends, or even a lock on a home I rent, because I don't own the physical lock. That 150 euro bill is basically regulatory

Well this sucks for people like me who were arbitrarily banned from making payments to google, likely because I travel too much. My current flow is: 1 tap purchase icon, 2 remember that I'm banned, 3 navigate to apps website and feel b

Do you live in the West? If so, the US is the one of two super powers which is most closely aligned with western, and most likely your, values. No other western country has the ability to project the soft and hard power required to protect

As another poster pointed out, there are plenty of billions being sloshed about. But in my experience all this does is subsidize private investment. If an investor knows that the money they are putting in will unlock 3:1 in public money, th

This comment seems to top any HN post regarding a google product launch so reliably that perhaps there should be a bot which automatically pins it to the top.

33.6% of requested ballots by 65 and over voters, a group which represent about 18% of total voters. I hope my generation is planning to vote in person. 65 and up 3,111,071 33.6

Europe as well had bargain basement prices over the summer. Australia, on the other hand, is still in Covid elimination mode. I know that Perth right now is only letting in 75 people a day, and I can imagine you're paying for a lot of

I just got my medical from a now retired air force doc. But his F16 buddies know where he lives and give him private airshows. By far the most awesome and friendly doctors visit imaginable, but his neighbors are none too impressed ;)

It's unlikely FE cards will become more available. Unlike previous generations, the FE is both likely superior to the AIB models and being sold for less. This created insatiable demand which many suspect Nvidia would rather not fulfill

I can't name names, but if you look at some of the security/exploit dev shops, a lot of them have this structure. Small number of engineers, lots of internal tooling, and good money

I was an early Firefox phone user and for six months happily put up with these types of annoyances with the hope that they would improve. I only stopped using it once it became clear things had stagnated. If this achieves sufficient penetra

This is obviously a massive topic, but from my vantage as a foreigner living in Europe is that Europe already has (and pays for) all features of a federal government with two exceptions. * Responsibility to implement treaties remains with t

Maybe, but it's also been totally spineless for the last 30 years.

The lack of cultural unity thing is a curtain to hide behind. There's no reason Europe can't have a powerful federal government, other than it would result in transfers from the "export based economies" to the others.

I disagree, I live in Denmark where the majority speaks very good English. There's no shortage of Danish media. On the other hand, economic suicide is assured by insisting on a high standard of living while doing everything possible to

Investment in public assets that take up the slack in the labour market and /remain/ public assets is the alternative to UBI I want to see. An asset like a solar plant or a HVDC line produces revenue for the public. And there&#x27

I agree with you that SV isn't going anywhere. The money people and best talent is entrenched there through their networks and simple things like home ownership. The other question is where else? Texas? Maybe but not exactly welcoming

I have to admit you're right. My case is a little different, where my jobs are about 1h long and it would take me longer to copy all the data to AWS than running it locally.

I have some CUDA code that I need to run as fast as possible, so if I was going to blow $1500, my use case would imply that I should go with two 3080s. However, I also play around with deep learning stuff, expect to do so more in the future

Europe has most of what you are saying should be done to reduce inequality. The real problems stem from bureaucracy and lack of a central government.

A wealth tax directly targets wealth inequality. No other tax can do that. It is also extremely predictable, as wealth doesn't necessarily disappear when the economy has a downturn. You need a war to destroy wealth. Wealth lasts for ge

I had this situation where an employee insisted on tax advice from the company's lawyer. The law firm represents who is paying, same for liability. In the end we sponsored an expensive email basically saying as such.
