Yes. But the companies need to keep in mind that they’ll have to review the IP laws of not only US but also the country of the candidate. Just because they sign a contract with the candidate that’s valid in US doesn’t mean that the candidat

You have to drink a LOT of water to reach that state or over flushing out electrolytes. Whereas, a dramatically large popular doesn’t drink enough water. So, in general, the above advice is still very valid.

We shouldn't mistake "communication" with "meetings" or "talking a lot." But, communicating more through the right channels is indeed very helpful. Maybe through more documentation, maybe on Slack, maybe t

Can Zoom stop logging me out from current computer (while I'm using Zoom) just because there's another computer on standby where I forgot to log off Zoom (and I'm not in any Zoom call on that computer)?

Good point. We both are being pathetic in trying to win the conversation. Conversation that’s not even that stimulating. Okay, I’ll stop.

It’s impressive how you’ve taken issue with my simple statement about “don’t add more complexity to taxes; simplify taxes.” You’re basically arguing that I shouldn’t make this statement unless I have specific details about how to simplify t

My plan? I’m not defining any plan. I’m suggesting that people who define plans should focus on removing loopholes that wealthy use today. Rather than giving them more chances to find loopholes. Income is something that we already use in ta

Define wealth. However we tax, we’ll have to define terms. The goal should be to remove loopholes in those definitions. Not add loopholes. By adding the concept of wealth, we’ll just encourage behavior like undervaluing assets (like art, pr

The reason wealthy don’t need to pay their fair share of taxes is due to all the tax loopholes. The solution to that is not adding more complexity in our taxes. The solution is to remove loopholes and make taxes as simple as possible. For a

The problem is how we define diversity. People from Luxembourg, Switzerland, and Monaco are considered different from each other. But people from Punjab, Kerala, and Assam are not. I’ll argue that people from the latter group of states from

Thank you for turning the conversation more polite. I agree with you about options having a cost. However, if so many of your users are complaining about something, and if the complaint is about something as important as “losing messages,”

That’s an unnecessarily hostile comment. I want to disable threads for myself so I don’t miss important messages. What’s your use case for disabling vowels? And where’s your list of people genuinely asking for disabling vowels for years?

The problem is that threads lead to missed messages. That’s a bigger problem than potential of noise. At least allow a user to decide if they want to see messages in threads or not.

Great product! Still don’t know why they don’t give the user the option of disabling threaded conversations for self or for entire organization. People have been asking for it for years. Ref: https://twitter.com/slackhq/

Just curious. Have you done a serious analysis of how much you’ll need in your retirement savings to be able to live a comfortable life when you’re no longer earning (due to lack of desire to work or lack of opportunities to work)? Say you
