Hi Peter, my startup is a US Corp (Delaware) with a US-based co-founder and US-based employees. I live in Canada and I'm a Canadian citizen and I have zero intention of moving to the US. I'm the CEO. I'm using an EOR (Remote.

I find it interesting that teachers are high on the list for most professions but conversely teachers marry teachers and other education professionals almost exclusively. Three possibilities.. There must be a lot of teachers. (Most likely)

If you’re on Wikimedia’s side there is negative value in throwing chaffe into the conversation about imperial saber rattling. Focus on the ball please.

I didn’t check his algorithm but if it only found one solution with a leading zero it is incorrect. 3821+0468=04289 as well.

The only bad thing about Full Throttle is the iPhone adaptation has a critical bug that hasn’t been fixed in years. It makes me sad. I want to play it again.

Don’t “Be humble”. Be scientific. Humility is an assumption the mistake is with you; but you only know the system is not functioning as expected. Proceed by narrowing down what parts of the system behave unexpectedly. Keep an open mind. Hum

How is your posture? You may go further by strengthening your back, hips, neck, shoulders. If every chair is uncomfortable it could mean the issue is more in your own physical state. You could invest some money in a physiotherapist to check

It's a prejudice about the human doing the work. It's not complicated to understand what the problem is. You should judge the work on the intrinsic merits of the work, not the worker. Every human has the right to work and be evalu

Thanks for posting the context for such a bizarre description. I can assure you that it's not worth continuing that train of thought. However, if you want a positive, constructive frame the goal is self-documenting code. In that vein,

You have it backwards. One should always assume our way of life is about to fail, so we take action to protect it. If you assume it is impervious, complacency will let it decay. Pessimists persists in humanity because sometimes they are rig

I agree with you. I think the lesson we're meant to take on the value-based pricing is you can have complex pricing if it is aligned tightly to the value perceived. It can be very natural. Look at Stripe's pricing. It's a nig

AWS prices on a cost basis, not value. That is you only pay for the input, not the output. Value-based pricing works well if your product is aligned to revenue or cost savings, and you can attach a clear business objective to the product.

I would imagine you do understand the advantage of 30 seconds of time from anywhere in the world versus a 20-60min round trip to the bank. I imagine there are other reasons you value than time and space convenience. Why do you feel the phys

All the SLO solutions struggle with the fact session IDs are disassociated with the IdP except by policy. Policy is insufficiently strong. The session ID needs to be cryptographically associated with the IdP so if you blow away the IdP sess

What is the difference between a funder and a paying customer? They are both users who are paying for the service. The difference is that funders have political power over the project beyond the scope of their own use. Customers are always

This was a criminal conviction. It says so in the article. Are you commenting on the disparate sentencing for the company versus an individual? It is a deferred prosecution agreement, which is definitely an aspect of corporatism: that is th
