Well that would be bad as the Chinese economy is going to get started meaning gas prices among others are heading way up -- as it will buy more of Russian oil -- which will impact also the U.S. indirectly. In essence the Fed at best is goin

But they are not worried about it -- usually at least.

I would definitely bring this up with 1-2 physicians, like other commenters posted. Hope it's nothing and it is just biased sampling.

I call BS. The Fed can do jack besides scare everyone. a) There is demand inelasticity on certain things like oil as the economy is in full swing. People need to drive to work, fly/ship for business, produce plastic/material, keep

Yeah -- probably only a handful of companies put their money and practice where their mouth is -- aka not a micromanagers' heaven. It is part of the process of a company's death if the company is in the innovation/tech sector

Given the terms -- funds are retained contingent on a deal and confirmation of the deal -- I wouldn't call that a gamble. Gamble would be keeping the stock after the fact or buying it post formation -- if it was a "less valuable c

Maybe because most of the new "tech" startups/jobs -- that care more about language than other startup areas -- are in "crypto"/Web3? P.S. Also, as a cryptographer: writing "high level" cryptography c

Managers manage resources which usually means strict control over them in an mbas or old mind: even if the whiteboard was $1 that you did not ask them is their issue. This of course has no place in innovative companies.

Good luck to the judge. Commodities laws still apply so this will be interesting to follow. They had to sue or they would be sued themselves (which they might regardless), but there is no law restricting you actually from inflating the mark

Worth is based on scarcity, need and agreement in peculiar ways. Some people can agree to trade an asset while some don't. Before fiat, it was fiat pegged to the dollar, fiat supported by gold, gold, silver, various metals. There was n

There is the point of correct close combat training. Shooting in an enclosed proximity is vastly different. For instance you don't want the gun to blind, deafen or grabbed and used against you. That can be alleviated with the right tra

My great-grandfather and uncle (retired) were carpenters. While carpentry is a great hobby they definitely preferred/liked my professional direction -- at some point lungs, legs, hands, and wood do not like each other.

Talk to a lawyer.

Yeah I also don't buy the approach and commentary. Rates need to go up sure, but not with this much funfare. Killing the patient in the process to keep inflation in check makes little sense. And then there is the demand elasticity. How

Or maybe more to do with users buying more of a particular brand of Bluetooth headphones and not having an arbitrary and universal input (you can do a lot of crazy stuff with an audio jack see square).

They should -- if they are not willing to answer on the runway you probably should not join/prepare to head out.

They never showed the fundamentals. There are famous money losses throughout the 20th century. [You can google the charts, or check Graham's book or the biography of Buffett, where he went around avoiding such traps or buying failing c

Honestly, having a lawyer on retainer may not be a bad idea in our field. Definitely you want a contract lawyer checking your contract and evaluating them.

Well the OP did not mention ransomware, so my comment is not addressing that case. Here is a fun article as a counter point: https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2021/07/13/dont-blame-bitco... And my comment

I mean cash is better for strictly better for illegal activities. That misconception has stuck and just stays there. One leaves way to many crumps with non-private digital assets. And private ones are treated like the plague. Plus KYC and c

a) "big money" -- (such as retirement accounts or other institutions) -- don't care about "retail." They have to follow certain risk regulations and plans and will follow them, and that's it. Market makers will

What I read here instead is that the American people is fine with deteriorating healthcare, and will not regulate the industry, nor burst into a walkout of their own. I find it cheaper to fly back to Europe and pay out of pocket (uninsured)

RSUs are terrible for a private company that aspires to go public, because the moment they trigger -- usually IPO + enough volume traded -- the company owes half of them in taxes (regular income taxes). This places a considerable pressure o

As some sibling comments: We are raising, and I would be interested in knowing who that investor was so as to avoid them. Please email me/dm me if you feel comfortable (see profile). Regardless, I am glad you did not go with them.

Perhaps, there should be a bond of some value necessary to be posted in such cases. If there is the appropriate money on the line, people suddenly think twice.

I mean scarcity defines value -- the reason gold or platinum are "valuable" is because of scarcity. That is it. Market inefficiency leads to unstable pricing, which for instance would be an "uncontrollably increase [of] the p

(General question, I agree with your statement above.) How is it pro business to ensure that employees -- a major stakeholder in businesses don't want to stay there? This historically, doesn't end well, right? This is beyond split

These working conditions should simply be illegal in the U.S. (and the countries it is not already). There is no way around that. If society doesn't demand that then good luck to all of us. I am simply surprised again and again people

I would even say zero. More likely your exit might be the final straw to break the camel's back, but unfortunately I have never seen that happen. (Might get a CEO fired though; so that might be positive in some companies. But again tha
