I was out of the country last month. Absolutely no spam on my "in country" sim there. Just exactly what I asked for, useful calls and texts. The moment I got back, I was inundated with spam and texts. I don't understand how

This is talking about non competes that apply after one is no longer employed. Yours is something entirely different.

Yeah, I'd say that's different, not sure how the anecdote applies whatsoever.

Right, the idea is to train + pay them well enough that they stay. It helps the local economy because rather than your business putting more into investments around the world (or wherever the rich store / grow their money), that perso

I have to do 9 hours or else I'm cranky and unproductive with an incredibly low attention span. My natural sleep is definitely about 1-2 am to 10-11 am unfortunately, which is not very compatible with most jobs. Thank god for remote w

I don't really have this issue after swapping to a nose only mask (previous was mouth + nose), although I know those aren't for everyone. Worth a try if you haven't, I love the resmed nose pillows. My pressure is around 13.5

I'm with you, mine was about 79 when I finally got a sleep study. Happy I have it sorted, but pretty worried what 10 years of that did to me. Mine is anatomy btw, a lot of folks assume I'm obese (even the folks I went to get my cp

Have you tried being born to a different family? In all seriousness I know what you mean. A lot of entrepreneurs come from well off families because they can afford to say no, or spend time on a bunch of middling ideas until they strike it

Like I said, I don't really have an interest in arguing with folks about it, unless they tell me what will change their mind. Otherwise it's just okay but one more thing. "Switching the US to be open shop would change my min

Do you remember when the top tech companies colluded to suppress wages? I do. Read up on it, they agreed to basically not compete for talent.

The business lead propaganda in the USA is insanely effective. Point to data, and folks still try to justify why unions bad (anecdotes, deflection, etc.). Point to overseas success, well, USA is exceptional wouldn't work here. Rather t

There was a study some time back where they set folks up in groups, then had them listen and vote on bands / music. Each group trended towards catapulting a single band / musician, but it always just depended on which one in the g

Yeah, it's very tricky. I don't think the IRS / government was prepared for how complex the future would be. Like #1, turning down a ride or job you don't want could eject you from the platform. It's seems to impl

That's what I was thinking. It depends though, because sometimes there are not enough drivers, so technically it can go either way. I think this is why defining a key part of your workforce as not a key part (aka gig) is tricky at best

This is a strange take, and looking at the checklist, it isn't even true what you've claimed. Let's take a gander: Following are the 20-points that have been established: 1. Must the individual take instructions from your man

The weird thing is, having been in frontend dev since around 2013 I feel like it's the simplest it's ever been. I'm more productive than ever, but I suppose mileage varies.

Yeah, but I'd argue those who don't have money to spare aren't going to have it for whatever alternative we propose either. Right now I'm paying $50 a month (highest tier) for a group of writers / comedians I really

I think it's more due to Sturgeon's Law ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sturgeon%27s_law ). It's not unique to any one thing / field / area.

I don't see too much wrong with Patreon. I support a variety of things I enjoy using it, and the folks who I support get to do what they love while giving me content I love. Maybe we need some Patreon competition? I don't know

Yeah, reminds me of how they fight against raising minimum wage saying robots are going to take jobs, but where are we now? There still aren't enough workers, and turns out robots are hard.

Yes! You hit the nail on the head. It's also a lead by example thing, where I love seeing more experienced folk asking questions. Where do you work if you don't mind the question?
