There are European alternatives to Anduril. But there are no European alternatives to Palantir, that's why.

Shower thought: Why send it to Mars when we can send it to uninhabitable Venus? Even gravity might work in our favor.

That's precisely my point. You need both the talent and the investment to execute this. Simply stating "Asian culture" is a stretch at best. The Asian economies made a ton of investment into semiconductors from the 1990s onwa

This! I've found that for most coding, Sonnet is pretty good as it is. Yeah, you might need to finesse your prompt a bit more, and you'll probably be spending a bit more time on the computer, rather than a more hands-off approach,

Does the right to bear arms extend to stuff like MANPADS, tanks and fighter aircraft?

I believe some of the earliest Intel fabs were in New Mexico (Shiprock and Rio Rancho). What combination of the above did New Mexico have? When New Mexico and Germany had fabs, South Korea was still a developing country ruled by a brutal di

TCS hires mediocre people because of cheap labor, which fits their outsourcing business model very well. Indian government tenders usually go to the cheapest bidder, not the most practical one. Because of this, even reputed companies like B

Reminds me of my middle school HTML project in computer science. Ironically, my project (as an Indian) was a website for promoting tourism in Paris XD.

If it costs 30 years for transporting zines, how much is treason and conspiracy to overthrow the government worth?

Bombing Iran's oil infrastructure would give Iran the casus belli to do a like for like strike on the GCC countries. Imagine strikes on Fujairah port, the Aramco, ADNOC and QatarEnergy refineries on the Gulf Coast, as well as the Yanbu

The Vatican City could develop nuclear weapons whenever they want, but doing it is slow and expensive, so there is insufficient political will to do it.

The US IRS doesn't tax pass through Wyoming LLCs currently anyways. As long as you file your exemption paperwork properly as a US non-resident, you should be clear in their eyes. As someone else mentioned, the bigger issue might be fil

Ouch, is that painful too? Damn.

by fakedang 4mo ago
My point is that US bureaucracy is very minimal - like I said, just need to submit a couple of forms to the IRS as a foreign-owned LLC.

Which is still fine imo. My idea was not about skipping German corporate or personal taxes - it was about skipping German bureaucracy.
139.
by fakedang 4mo ago
I wasn't talking about emigrating - just work from Europe and manage the company in the US. You only have to pay German taxes (corporate + personal) in that arrangement, and submit 2 forms to the IRS as a foreign-owned passthrough LLC.

Who said anything about getting a visa? The entire point of my idea was about skipping German bureaucracy. The only US bureaucracy is the IRS, and 2 forms for offshore LLCs at that. Getting a visa actually defeats the purpose of the Wyoming

by fakedang 4mo ago
The point I thought was a plus was that you'd be paying German taxes without all the German bureaucracy? Because there's definitely no bureaucracy for a Wyoming LLC except for a couple of IRS forms annually.

Is the GmbH the most complex legal structure? What about the AG?

by fakedang 4mo ago
Can't you just incorporate a Wyoming LLC (zero corporate tax + federal tax because you're non-resident in the US) then just open a Wise account? Wyoming LLC gives passthrough taxation, and because you're in Germany, you'

Honestly why go through all these hoops? Is the Wyoming LLC + Wise account route shut off for most Europeans?

The fact that PG&E exists is a clear contradiction to your statement. In most countries, water, electricity, waste management and public transport are government controlled through and through, even if the government might sell shares t

BYDs are certainly better than VWs, Fiats, Citroens and Renaults. The only problem is getting parts - you'll have to wait at least a month or so for the part to arrive from China if it isn't locally available (which often is the c

Hahaha, uninformed comment right here. Thorium-based nuclear research was practically shut down during the Cold War precisely because they realized that you can't make nuclear weaponry out of it. It would have been a very different wor
