Yes, I'm aware. I'm not worried because in my contracts it's mentioned that I offer consulting services.

Yup, I'm a PFA with a fixed taxation rate (norma de venit) using 6202. Keep in mind that taxation rates differ by a lot for each county.

You can look into laravel and maybe laravel spark if you're building a saas.

Yeah, that's the real system, there's also "norma de venit" which is quite different - you'll pay for a fix amount per year. Also, the dividend tax was lowered to 5%.

Romania. I'm registered as a "persoana fizica autorizata" (PFA), which has 2 types of taxation systems: - real (which means you're taxed ~40% based on how much you earn). - norma de venit, where you'll need to pay t

Have you considered moving to a EU country, especially from eastern EU, to pay lower taxes? For example, where I live, I only pay around 230 EUR per month for an income of 7k EUR/month (of which half of it is for pension and 50 eur for

Just because you don't have allergies now it doesn't mean you'll never have one. Until a few years ago, I've never heard of ragweed alleries. Guess who's allergic to it now?!

And you can also use the new syntax: $inc = fn ($number) => $number + 1; $x = [1, 2, 3, 4]; array_map($inc, $x);

Not really nationalism in my case. Shipping to my country (EU) costs 115$, more than the keyboard itself. Besides the shipping costs, there's also customs and VAT. So for a 100$ I'll probably end up with paying 300$. So yeah, not

> This really isn't available yet either. Who's going to pay for this? Really? In Europe some retailers have this, sure, for 2 or 3 parking spots. If the demand is there, I'm pretty sure they'll expand it, even as a p

It depends on the country, I guess? In Romania the professional attitude combined with mentioning the regulator (or filling a complaint to the regulator) works pretty well for consumer goods.

I don't think the stats are that relevant, at least for romania. For example I pay 6 eur/month for a prepaid sim that has something like 2k minutes and sms, and 6 gb of traffic. The thing is that my carrier (Orange) always offers

Not gonna happen, but you can always use Symfony's String component that has API like that. Sure, it's not built-in, but I think this is the best solution for now given the size of PHP's language team.

PHP developers always have had lower salaries, you can't argue with that. Like in retail, it depends on location, location, location; a regular developer will never make that much in Europe - remote (for a EU company) or not.

Ha, tell me about it, I just got from a remote company an offer of 2.2k eur/month as a PHP developer. The drawbacks of being a PHP guy I guess.

Nope, but you can with a BEV. A SMB could afford to offer a low electric charging station; heck, software companies could offer the possibility to charge their employee cars for free as a perk; even a normal outlet would be enough, 8-9 hour
