Excel Macros, and MS Access, and the various website template builders, are the best we have done so far with 'low code tooling' for the average joe. Anything more complex, it is going to require a good degree of programing knowle

yeah man, stop talking about all of the non-christians like you know them all. My family does, and we are all mixed. Also the xmass tree, was called New Years's Eve tree, and it went up every year, right before xmass. This was even i

I started a startup, but it failed.... how about that. Easy peasy. It really depends on what you did. If you are an engineer and were keeping your skills sharp by doing a side project, then you shouldn't have any problem saying: I w

Gap years, or as they used to be called sabaticals, are common once you reach 8+ years of experience. If you are a good engineer, you can take mutiple years, and still be ok, as long as you keep your skills sharp. (i.e. have some kind of p

Yes. when I lived in Sweden, I noticed that Swedes in general have less stuff. Smaller housing, fewer cars, less ability to buy stuff, and even go out. The average engineer salary was almost half (about 60%) of those in NYC and SF, while p

Yes, It creates serfs/indentured servitude. Both the H1B visa and GC application should belong to the worker/applicant, with conditions (as long as they are employed with the given salary, pay taxes, etc...). The employee should

Yup.... for me it was Amazon. And I was in H-1B back then, so I just put it up with it for a while, until the economy improved. The company had such a weird culture. It was pretty stressful. The most insidious thing they did was delay the

The next Presidential elections are early next year, that's why. Macron wants to look more important/relevant, and a keeper of french values and cultural importance.

It is a typical French thing. Since they don't have a global influence anymore since WW2, all they can do is throw hissy fits.

you can make the same argument for netflix, amazon, or anything that involves any type of transaction, even your uber... If she is using the app store payments, then fine. But if she is not using it, then that is a problem.

Thanks Obama for this. He went full on corporate... and of course Trump and Biden are the same. In both Clinton and Bush eras (both Bushes), there was more pushback on some of these behaviors.

It is a bogus valuation... as it is not market based. If you can't sell the stock, and nobody wants to buy it, (yes, there are startups that are in this position), then that valuation is mostly wishful thinking. Often the valuation un

No, it is racist and discriminatory.... We end up with bizzare scenarios, where someone form Nepal, or Palestine, is considered as 'privileged', as they are asian, and weirdly arabs are counted as 'white'. While someone

It is not a myth, but well known. Startups take something that is already researched, and further develop it and commercialize/monetize it. I think the myth might be more in the layman/general population, but most people in the t

Rules do change all the time. My Coop (in NYC) decided to impose a 2% transaction fee, which works out about 10k on a 500k apt. They also can raise then fees anytime. That’s why HOAs can be a problem if they have too much power. The fact is

My experience with the american HS has been great. I went in Halifax County High, in rural Virginia, in the late 90s. It is rated 5.5/10, so average school I guess and it was racially diverse. I attended it as an exchange student, (Fr

Clickbait article. That's not really South East Europe though, but more far east, in the Asian border. Barely Europe. Southeast Europe is usually thought to be Greece, Albania, Croatia and the rest of the Balkan countries.

Could be. But also the Balkan mafia operates in another level when it comes to identities. There are stories, of eventually someone getting caught, and it is realized that the guy was wanted for 15+ years, by some (usually Western Europe)
