I can not find proof right now, but I've read some version of this in the early 2000s and the (initial) author is Linus Torvalds. You should be able to tell by the style :)

Wow, I'm honestly impressed with the level of experimentation you are willing to do on yourself. Do you have good enough confidence/knowledge to be sure you will not damage yourself for the long term?

Me and a friend are working on a load/stress testing framework. We intend to sell this as a consulting service. We will test your website and identify weak spots under load by writing "realistic" tests which simulate user act

Then why would I care to switch jobs?

Yeah, I read "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" in High School. It had quite an impact TBH. It really made me more confident with women and helped me to follow the "if you want something, go out and claim it" philosophy.

Used car imports also get taxed by the same percentage. And you can't cheat, because they decide the value of the car, not your receipt.

No, and dealing with the government is quite an adventure, even for natives (as I am). I certainly do not recommend, unless you have a Bulgarian native co-founder or/and lots of money to spend on good accountants/representatives.

I wonder how did you come up to put Bulgaria and Estonia in the same bucket. The two countries have almost nothing in common. I am a Bulgarian native and for my current endeavor I seriously consider creating an Estonian company.

Elixir is partly fixing this problem. Though it's still not enough because the hard part is not the syntax (as most newcomers tend to blame their failure on), but the things you write with the language, which are the same for Elixir an

Yeah, the Erlang ecosystem is so much better (for web) than everything else available today, it's not even funny. Though it seems like there is some very major obstacle in people understanding it. It's so frustrating, I've al

They are getting "better" though. The ratio of civilian deaths seems to go down with the years.

What you say is true, if we only take into consideration shipping from coastal China. But I would presume there is geo-strategic interest for China to try and improve its internal and western regions. If we take this into consideration, it

This is still qualified as an "emergency".

Absolutely true. And when you have in mind that I am actually writing to the OP, who is young, presumably healthy and in the beginning of his career, it's easy to agree that he is not taking a (financially) smart decision by moving to

I also am happy with my financial situation. That doesn't mean that what I said is not true. Salaries which a re "standard" in the US, like 100-150k USD are very hard to attain in Europe, working for European employers. They

I am not a native speaker and I translated literally from my native language where "questionable" would mean "not guaranteed to be good", but not necessarily bad.

What you say is correct. All things have variations. The Athens flat for 100 euro (though I highly doubt the price you cite) has it's equivalence somewhere in cheap cities of the US I never said that healthcare was "bad", onl

Sorry, I only have my personal experience and that of my family and friends. And I didn't say "low". Usually it's highly bureaucratic - you have to "climb a ladder" of doctors. First your GP, then a specialist,

Prepare to be much worse financially. You will earn less, pay higher taxes (as percentage) and will feel much poorer. Cars, especially nice ones, are much more expensive (in absolute numbers, not only as percentage of income) to buy and own

Not very likely. Most pathogens are only able to survive outside host for only a limited amount of time. I can't give you exact numbers for Yersinia pestis, but it's certainly not centuries. One recent example of what you suggest

If I have to guess, I think the author (although loving it) is not familiar enough to produce a working product fast. I have done it several times and can confidently state that Erlang (and especially Elixir) is very viable for that.

This is going to be controversial, but where is the proof that "democracy" is the biggest value to be pursued? In my opinion democracy is only a tool, not goal. And I think sometimes (Kemalist Turkey is one example) it's bett
