So how many years of experience are required for these types of salaries? What job title?

Wouldn't that money be funded by the citizens and potentially be a waste of resources, duplicating viable products?

I think the issue with GDPR is that you can't deny service if they don't want to pay and don't want to be tracked. Iow, you can't ask them to pay if they don't want to be tracked. That's where the complaint abo

Probably most content people read does not easily translate to a product as in your fishing example. Generally, ads with no targeting are not very profitable.

Does your company employ any US citizens in Croatia? I understand that the taxes would not be able to be deducted from one's US taxes - so basically one would pay double taxes.

Sometimes people are motivated are pay a premium if they feel the cause is good (it can be marketed on the product). In this case, how much would the difference be?

I see your point - I think a lot of things today boil down to: a substantial number of people, and in this case science too, has agreed that one action is "good" for the planet. However, not everyone agrees - some people feel that

Okay, but that didn't convince me much personally. I think its absolutely in the company's liberty to cover the costs of the things they want to cover - as is the case with all benefits (other than gov mandated ones). They are jus

They're not really banning eating such meals - they simply don't want to cover their costs. I don't really see the issue personally. There are many things companies don't want to cover which they get to decide on.

This is an important question - how much personalization is ok within a workplace? I am grateful I've worked in really professional environments - nothing overtly political or anything. It might have been a bit bland, but honestly it h

Countries you could outright permanently move to? Which ones?

You can't outright move to Thailand at least. You'd need to do visa runs in neighboring countries but couldn't live there 365 days a year.

When the gov is in charge of things, there are too many vested personal interests that would argue certain unprofitable programs need more funding anyway etc... The only way these things can be assessed with certainty is when a private comp

To be a nurse or secretary in those days were almost equivalent to a female executive today - simply because there were almost no female executives then.

Stripping of dignity? Don't agree with that. I think means testing has its issues but its far more fair than lottery type support such as rent control or fixed property taxes which can help the top 1% for no real reason. The big questi

True, my parents are I were the only in our family to move to the US but we still had pictures of ourselves on the wall. Hehe.

I can certainly relate to some of this stuff coming being a child of immigrants from the Balkan countries (not born in the US) but having grown up here most of my life. My father grew up on a farm with no electricity and a well for water. A

Being remote is one of the few things startups can compete on for really talented employees who for whatever reason don't want to live in a tech hub.

I don't think your argument is very strong. Calling something 'free range' when it isn't would be akin to calling something purple when its orange. It has a particular meaning. However, 'milk', 'meat'

If you ask a vegan of what types of 'meat' you can get in a grocery store they will have a more nuanced answer though.

I wonder though it the effect of the hormones they give to cows to produce more milk has a healthy affect on children.

Interesting - what do they call it there? I was in the EU a long while ago and I found only natural food stores usually contained soy/almond/etc milks but I don't remember what they were called or how they were marketed. Comp

I think there's an argument made that some packaging can be confusing. They might think the term 'beyond meat' is clear enough but not everyone will. Perhaps stores need to stock them in different locations - in fact, that&#x

1. The higher the capital gains tax rate, the less money will be invested. Wouldn't that also be true if they don't have alternatives to invest? What are those alternatives? 2. Higher rates make for less efficient economics, becau

Most federal spending is not for welfare but for social security - and retirees tend to congregate in certain places. CA has less retirees than the national average. Many retirees have moved from other places, as they seek to escape high ta

Seems to me its doesn't make sense to have a gov sell bonds in a currency that it doesn't have control of. This includes countries outside of the EU that use the Euro. When buying bonds of a country, there should mean the investor
