On the other hand, I took a lot of ubers last year (in Amsterdam). We don't have uber X, but Black and Lux. Pricing of black is on average 10-20% below normal taxi's. All driver's I've asked have said that they prefer ub

True, but I believe the stats only look at the working population? If Germany has a much higher number of part-time workers compared to Greece it's easy to explain why they work less hours per person on average

And account for correlations. It would be interesting to see if multi step projects with overruns tend to overrun in more steps then expected. I could imagine a stakeholder management heavy project to be more likely to overrun in every step

I'm a chemical engineer and self taught programmer who turned strategy consultant. Graduated from my MBA a few weeks ago, so I might be a bit biased :) I've found that different people find different things valuable in their MBA.

When I decided to leave my co-founder we asked advice from the local chambers of commerce (In the Netherlands they provide this). I remember feeling the same: surely all my effort put in must be worth something. The advice was clear. The va

Excuse me if this is a dumb question, but I've seen a lot on HN these days where people would suggest Erlang/Elixer for this kind of use case (high performance distributed). Any reason (beyond syntax preference) that this was not

The main reasons are probably regulation and effort/difficulty to serve. Assuming you are a US citizen, I highly invite you to come over to Switzerland and try and open a (savings) account if you wish to experience it in person. I&#x27

Not actually my own project, but a Swiss start-up that I'm helping out during a few weeks. Key difference with existing solutions is that it will encrypt your files locally in your browser and never transmit the key over the internet.
