We use a coding challenge as well but I like your addition of "auditing" the coding part and using existing open source or side project work. Bonus points if it uses some of the target technologies too! The author doesn't app

Hey, whatever you need to tell yourself to feel better. Yet somehow the several generation between you and the boomers managed to make a go of it; how did that happen? I employ a number of these new grads and pay a salary that will more tha

not sure how things work in your jurisdiction, but to sell in our area you basically need to work with an agent to get into the market of home buyers; FSBO just doesn't work. The minute I'm on the hook to pay THAT level of commiss

This strategy is really hard to make work with 100's or 1000's of tennants because of the resource overhead and scaling issues, even with virtualization. It makes integration a hard problem if you sell a modular or component-based

I don't think you would pay tax in this scenario, as essentially this is just a longer-term tourist visa. You won't be allowed to get a job locally and are expected to work remote. There's no way they could track (and tax) th

even countries with lots of publicly funded services usually exclude tourists. For example, a visitor to Canada would either not be allowed to take advantage of many services (ex: Employmnet Insurance / Welfare) or get billed (Healthca

In the interior of British Columbia we had massive forest die-off from Pine Beetle, that was caused by a lack of fires combined with warmer than normal winters. All of that fuel came down to the forest floor where it was a huge fire risk an

we have the same fascination with N. Korea, there's jsut so little non-propaganda information though. Saudi is pretty welcoming to rich westerners and has a big expat community so there's lots of ways to "see inside".

Well exactly! And the people who would complain the loudest are the ones here saying they like Apple's curation, want the 30% Apple tax and if developers don't want to pay it can go elsewhere. Then the developers could say, if you

Why can't you still use the app store with it's curation and filtering, and 30% tax if you want, while others skip it and pay 30% less or the money goes to the developer?

The private company that sells me electricity has to charge all sorts of fees that are mandated by the various levels of government that regulate the market. These are not taxes but admin fees, riders and right-of-ways, each dutifuly detail

drugs are very expensive everywhere it's possible, and implicitly expensive drugs are not available where they're unaffordable (and hence no market at the high price). This leads to bigger group buying programs and a focus on gene

we can both complain about the final outcome and disagree on how we got here. I think it's a stretch to call healthcare an efficient market. There are huge upfront and switching costs for almost every component making it rife with oppo

This sounds like the "we have so many cases of covid because we test so much; if we didn't test we won't have as many cases" logic. Jeff Bezos has no clothes!
