Not so easy when you have a family. To be clear, I don’t have a problem paying taxes in Germany. The problem for me is primarily how hard it is to set up a company and deal with bureaucracy here. And even though there are great alternatives

pay who 200€? in Germany? just the notary fee is in the hundreds and you probably need a lawyer and an accountant for a UG/GmbH. I’m trying this now with a new venture. Already have an accountant. But they’re slow and nonresponsive. I

This feels very wrong, especially for such a service. I would personally trust https://yourdigitalrights.org/ much more. Plus it’s global. Disclosure: I donated a little and later met the founder of the nonprofit.

This looks very sleek. I love it. I had a similar itch to scratch, but created something far less ergonomic[0] a while back. Princing info would be useful though, even if it’s free in Beta. Great job! [0] cronyo: The missing cron CLI for AW

The best solution I found was to delay the deletion and make it reversible (within a few days). Mark the account as to-be-deleted and prevent any action. The only page/screen available should show: this account is scheduled for permane

Great post! I can tick many boxes off that list as well. Wonder about fighting data brokers however. Any tips?

Yeah it’e a joke. Enforcement even in more privacy-friendly countries is slow and feels largely ineffective. I wish they would make it possible to go to small claims court and win, say, up to a 500€ per case. That might be the death by a th

This looks useful, but the problem related to CNIL etc is that CF is a US company so then it can be compelled to deanonymize the data. Wouldn’t this just kick the can down the road? IANAL but interested in this space.

I found this BBC podcast[0] quite insightful about optimism vs pessimism. One interesting thing is that there are far more optimists than pessimists in the population. If I recall it’s a 9:1 ratio. [0] https://www.bbc.co.uk/

What about AI-assisted writing? e.g. improving style, grammar, readability, making explanations clearer and better structured? especially for non-native writers this is a challenge and not many can hire an editor or even a proofreader. I wo

Feels a bit gimmicky to me, but maybe I’m missing some need in the market. I wonder about auto-generated captchas perhaps? or are these going to be easy to reverse? On a side note: I’d love to switch from Cloudflare to bunny, but it’s missi
