I've gotten a reply from Bezos (or more likely an EA) before, it happens. Sidenote: EAs are just as good. Having been on the end of an EA to a CEO telling me to fix something I can tell you it's not a place you want to be. They c

Hi YuryVladkov, This really sucks. There is lots of advice but one piece of advice worth mentioning is that you can freelance (e.g. Estonian or other EU company) and then you can use visa free days and live like a digital nomad. Depending

No that's just not true. I left a company years ago on good terms to join a (semi established) startup. 9 months later it turned out to be a real shitshow. I talked to one of the senior managers at my former company and they gave me a

Be calm. You may be locked out, but sometimes it just takes time to get back in.

You could even install a monorail so they could get around the city above the cars.

Police forces around the global have issues with institutional racisim[0][1][2]. This global systemic behaviour does nothing to convince me there should be more police. > A study of police-involved deaths between 2012 and 2018 found that

I read some advice that it's better to lock the account than delete it, especially if you had a decent number of followers. Reduces the likelihood of impersonation.

Was going to say the same thing. I don't think it was coined on Reddit. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I like your use of trends though to prove it.

I'm not sure it's fair to say it failed. Not everything is forever. It served very important purposes, helped push technology forward and paved the way for editors like VSCode. I'd call that success.

Yes agreed. Just couldn't go past the source. I'm not German, but have clients in Munich and have been learning German (i.e more than a remote armchair view). Have considered moving to Germany. This last year has disappointed me.

I'm really unclear why you linked such a biased news source. But for clarity: The Revolution of dignity has absolutely no signs of a coup. It resulted in presidential and parlimentary elections. Crimea was illegally annexed by Russia.

The point is not that it's the same though, it's that companies can behave in seemingly weird ways, to an outsider some of these behaviours might even appear scammish or risky (and it probably is risky to by the flight ticket on t

SOOO much victim blaming. I hope they remember all the victim blaming they did when they eventually fall for a bad actor. Maybe I should write a bot that waits for the inevitable hacker news post and reposts the victim blaming comment from

Yeah Australia as well, a bunch of big companies got in trouble a few years back after emailing after unsubscribe from the ACCC. Multi-million fines. I like that the ACCC has teeth. Keeps Australian companies on their toes.

Everyone over reaches on permissions though. It's practically industry standard to ask for a whole bunch of permission you don't need. Such that the likes of Google have multi-year efforts to crack down on it and reduce the abilit

Yep. She had both eyes done. Edit: it really is one of those things where you kick yourself for not having done earlier. It seems much more scary than it actually is.

It wasn't 2022, but 2020 when my SO got femtolasik (of all places in Estonia). €1700 and a couple of days of discomfort. It's not surgical so the recovery is speedy. Such a massive quality of life improvement as an outside observe

I don't begrudge companies linking product announcements, but this is not that. It's not a new product, and it's not an announcement of any sort.

At least in theory you can run anything on the Onyx Boox because, as you say, it runs Android. I haven't tried it but it's a starting point.
