If you are actively looking, I'd try hired.com. For passive (just being out there), SO inbound is way higher quality than LinkedIn. LI is spammy for me. The last time I did a massive search (2006), I really liked indeed.com for aggrega

You could get more specific advice with some more info. Where are you? How much experience? Looking for remote or onsite? What technology do you know well? Generically, I like SO careers -- you don't need rep on it to apply to jobs. Th

(STILL NOT AN ACCOUNTANT). I believe the cap is not on the gift -- it's on the giver and what they have to file. There is no tax until gifts go over ~5 million. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gift_tax_in_the_United

I AM NOT AN ACCOUNTANT Since the OP doesn't want anything in return, it's possible that this could be considered a gift. If true, then the transfer would be tax (and social security) free in the US. The OP is paying tax/SS on

The quoted sentence is an example of the problem that it is trying to describe. He is doing this on purpose for effect . A simpler rephrasing (which loses this effect) is: If you struggle to find the appropriate word for a given situation,

This is even more true in the live interview. You need to start doing something early -- just say: "I'm going to code something up quickly, and then I'll try to improve it" -- then write out something.

It was in the middle of a travel journal. It said if you are reading this and are 40, quit your job and start something. I did it (consulting) at the soonest convenient time. I think there was stuff in there about relationships, but that g

When I was 22, I wrote some advice for me for when I was 40, which I followed (at 43), and it wasn't bad, although he was kind of a jerk about it.

This makes sense. The App Store is a store and Marco is a wholesaler to the store -- the customer's relationship is with Apple. Stores refund purchases all of the time without talking to their suppliers (or asking permission). Peace u

One thing to ask an accountant about: The Series A price might not be the one to use. They paid for a different class of stock than you have, with probably a lot more privileges and therefore a higher price. You might be able to base your
