This won't ever attract American workers without a bilateral tax treaty, and all these initiatives are in English... I think there's more than 1 missing piece in these plans.

It's hard to take anyone with such a cutthroat capitalist mindset as anything but the sum of their incentives. That goes for Thiel especially because he's promoted this as a strict political belief system.

I think this is a smart lifestyle business with potential for some scaling. That term is a little misleading, as I recall a "lifestyle business" being a business that sells everyday brands. I guess it's the new term for &qu

Medicare part D provides prescription coverage for a fee. It's a negotiating block for cost averaging and leveraging with a pool of participants. You clearly don't know anything about this and I recommend you just delete your comm

I've been lightly submitting personal work to reddit and hacker news for years and it's pretty obvious that post title, time of day, and day of week are the primary driving factors.

Fork distributes control over history and abstracts permission management away from the traditional git branch pattern so you don't clutter the namespace of the canonical remote but can still offer work. Fork is almost nothing, it'

Chinese is a nationality or citizenship status. If the focus were reporting han chinese then it would enter the territory of racism.

I'm in the same boat. The iPhone X is in my dresser drawer waiting to be sold. I love the SE and happily await an SE profile phone with a design closer to the X.

You're right about the other password approach, it seems like the best alternative is a passphrase.

Interesting! Do you use astura everywhere on the web? Just kidding... your approach is a good start, but use a unique password for each one instead of "fuck you".

Check out "Capital in the 21st Century" by Thomas Picketty. The picture is bleak, and it describes how the truly wealthy (top 1% of stored wealth) must self regulate or risk passing a tipping point. And how they are failing to do

Income is not wealth. If prolonged inactivity will force a radical restriction in what you consume, you are not wealthy. Many people with high incomes think they are wealthy because of their income. You are wealthy only if you have stored w

Don't forget that you're supposed to paste phrases from the job description language into the resume, so every resume should have a very high baseline similarity.

I don't think I would subscribe for this - good movies are seasonal and if the movie isn't good the theater would need to pay me to go, maybe $250 would be a good fee for me to go to a movie of unknown quality.

"The City" - also refers to NYC if you are in the surrounding area, refers to Manhattan if you are in an outlying Borough, and refers to San Francisco if you are in the outlying Bay Area. I am sure there are more :)

This is cyclical news. It's an amazing marketing campaign for VCs. This is an interesting armchair idea for lots of people, but absolutely inspiring for people VCs are targeting to work for them and shoulder the non-cash component of t

I am interested in whether doctors were able to take cases that they normally don't take. I do not expect error rates to go down because doctors are already incentivized to avoid difficult cases.

It is common for people to assume that chemistry works mechanically, and we have, in fact, been very successful at reducing a great number of biochemical interactions to pretty much raw mechanics. Also, life has a stake in reducing a stream

On an evolutionary scale, life exploits the boundary between signal and noise to migrate across its manifold substrate. There is no reason to presume that statistical interference does not contribute to outcomes more locally.
