I have friends and family. From time to time I would like to host them when they visit so we can drink alcohol and stay up late. Consequently it is always likely that one might want at least one more room than is needed by the family. It ad

As a home owner that was only able to afford to buy a house because we were able to rent out the spare rooms on AirBnb I find fault in your logic. I think you'll find that zoning/planning permission is the real bad guy here. Tha

Do you have a source for this? I am not aware of any practically significant way in which the crown dependencies are different from the OTs. AMA 7.5 year resident of Bermuda.

This translation guide is usually helpful. https://polish2english.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/55551980-... I'm afraid I don't know what RFC English is and neither does Google.

Don't forget the rules of British English that make it very clear that the grammatical construction: "you should consider" means "you must in all circumstances save for the immediate alternate outcome being a genocide.&q

I don't have a source. Probably a YouTube video. Having deployed it my anecdotal experience supports it is a heuristic. I now treat it as a ceremony.

I can't read the article as I'm on my phone but would have been interested. As a Founder of a small B2B SaaS company I am often at events where I know almost no people where I would like to get to know lots of people. It's pr

I'm always curious about affiliate programs. I can absolutely believe that someone who can generate $100k of sales for you may do so for 40% but I find it hard to believe that anyone will bring their one or two friends with the same pr

I'm interested in why you want to do this? What is the goal you are trying to achieve? Why would you not do this with salaries? Will there be some people paid more than others that do different roles? If so, why would their profit shar

Apologies, I was referring to the specific thing one is doing (and giving up on) as a node below the "do something great" headline. That is you don't give up on the overarching objective "do something great" because

Why does UK have no place there? The islands were uninhabited when settled by the French and following a peace treaty with France were transferred to the UK.

Does the answer to this lie with the tree PG discusses. If the goal is, "do something great." Then one should never quit.

I think what you are actually describing is that you should value equity at zero. If to work at a startup you would need 28% equity you are describing a founder. That's fine but there is an enormous difference between these two things.

This advice is for 14/15 year olds. I think the advice would be different for 22-year-olds. It would be different still for 35-year-olds. 22-year-olds have a hard time selling to enterprises, 14-year-olds will find it impossible. Where

I am definitely a human, and I think that only a human would have deliberately got so many of the answers wrong. However, the computer was convinced of my non-humanness because I wouldn't play its silly little games.
