Any platforms? You just need to calculate all your costs and sell it for the same price.

If a vast majority of employees are feeling the same, I would write it down and talk to the manager. If it's mostly just me, I would leave. I don't expect a company with many employees to take my moral standards into consideration

When I quit my job I joined freelancing platform (Malt and Comet because I used to live in France). I got my first well paying gig this way. Then a friend of mine heard I had done a good job and asked whether I wanted to join him on other t

Not gonna be a popular answer but I will say it nonetheless. I used to be fairly shy, especially with the other sex, of course. But in my personal life with family and friends I was fairly normal, it was just shyness and a lack of confidenc

I am being paid between 500$ and 700$ a day. I don't bill based on where I am.

The US is not a good example, your social welfare is quite limited. Spending your youth in the US accumulating capital at a rapid speed and then moving to a "socialist country" like Sweden or France and living off your investments

I fail to see why that would be an ideal situation. 1. People should not be interchangeable. Polish hold different values than Cuban. They have their own languages, cultures, values, traits, physical appearances. Keeping borders is also mak

I agree with this and I feel that page ranking algorithms and their variants (depending on whether you want to boost novelty, controversy, contrarian articles, whatever) is already doing a good job at filtering out full propaganda. And Russ

The WMD scandal was recorded live during Colin Powell at a UN conference. It was broadcast by pretty much all American news outlet. The only difference between the US and Russia is the the US is a lot more subtle when it comes to generating

Western media helped start a war with Irak based on fake weapons of mass destruction. If people lost trust on Western medias, it's not because of Russians, it's because we are constantly producing propaganda as well. It's jus

You just hire a virtual assistant on upwork or somewhere else. You take an hour or two explaining what you need, which tool they need to use, what’s the output format, template, etc. It will likely take a few days where you will need to ans

There is no strawman here. The fact that countries value education/healthcare/tech/industry/environment/etc differently, means that you will not reach wage equality.

I would have never guessed that some people could hesitate between whether the Earth is revolving around the sun or not. Wow.

How would you achieve this when people don't value the same things? Teachers are well paid in the US and Germany, not so much in Hungary and Turkey. Who is going to impose what is to be valued by society? You basically just want to dep

HN is supposed to be a place for civilized discussions. I am not allowed to go anywhere I want. There are plenty of countries refusing me entry, or access to land/property or force me to abide by strict business rule (like having a nat

But you are surrounded by people whose parents contributed to your economy, who were more or less raised with at least a decent amount of shared values. People don't just come to a new country and just abandon their past. They bring th

I think the UN is already doing way too much. I don't want to live in a world where the concept of trust is nullified in the name of equality. I decide who I want to welcome in my home. I believe Thailand, Russia, Brazil, Germany are c

I exclusively socialize offline. I like to be alone for my online work. Completely immersed without distractions. I am quite nomad, spending several months in random cities around the world, so socializing is important as I can’t rely on ju

It’s hard to measure, I live in France and probably work 25 hours a week (out of the regular 35 hours we are supposed to do) But then I don’t count the many hours reading documentation, practicing and exploring at home and most of the time

I would find it useful as well, hard to implement though. I would pretty much use it on the opposite spectrum, if a company has too much diversity compared to the normal demographics, that’s a red flag for me. The company is implementing no

This is only my opinion but I believe this is only happening because Uncle Bob refuses to submit to political correctness. It's still a solid resource, you should not treat it as your Bible of course. There is not a single resource tha

I think you can go to Upwork and pay a virtual assistant. Then it's just a matter of setting up VoIP.

If you can use your horoscope to predict things with a 95+% accuracy, I am fine with it. You can even do cafeomancia if you want.

I am not sure which country you are from, but here in France, people who are advocating for 4 days workweek are not trying to replace 5x8 by 4x10 (indeed I don’t imagine myself being able to produce code for 10 hours) Well France is on 35h

I lost my father and my dog. For some reasons the only time I cried was when my dog passed away. Did I hate my father? Absolutely not, but that’s what happened. Sometimes it’s not too logical, trust what’s inside your mind, you don’t need t
