Banning all foreign home buyers does not seem too smart, especially for a country that wants to massively increase its population. Also, what happens after those two years? Are they expecting foreign moguls to vanish into thin air?

I think it's due to how linear studying is. Actual work on the other hand can be quite unpredictable, it's a bit like a monster of the week show where monsters are incidents, bugs, and unreliable leaders. And there's also lin

My miracle year was when I was 18 or 19 and I wrote my first large piece of software by myself. I'm approaching my late 20s now and I haven't had as much sustained fun ever since. Being a wage slave sucks.

I had one of those clauses myself and I knew it was bull before I signed it. I have only seen it enforced once in the wild, to prevent a CEO from creating a competing company for a couple of years.

25-75% of your salary every month, until the clause expires. So if you were making $100k a year you are getting $25-75k a year until it expires.

Well, you are supposed to get it every month until the clause expires, which can be a long time after you stopped working for them. I've only seen it happen to C-level guys of big companies.

I can't give you legal advice, but I can ask you to consider if you really want to work for AWS. It may be a generic clause, but they are basically saying they don't trust you. Also telling recruiters of other FAANG / big cor

That sums up non competes in Europe. Usually companies are required to pay 25%-75% of a former employee's salary in order to make a non compete clause enforceable.
