So OP wanted to become an employer but had no idea what being an employer actually entailed or did any basic research into things like the fee to do business in California. Got it. Not that Cali’s system is awesome but give me a break, OP j

You can't generally go beyond 0 though. You'll get liquidated before that due to the exchange's risk engines. If it goes beyond, that loss is passed on to the lenders.

Well, for starters the funding and borrow rate(s) are often positive because people just tend to be bullish. So things have to get pumped up somehow before they come crashing down, it's a much stronger tendency among the crypto faithfu

NFTs really have a brain virus to them that it's hard to understand until you buy your first ones and kick around in the communities. Nothing new under the sun so I'm sure there are beanie baby, wine, fine art meetups and communit

Getting in early on BTC, ETH, or crypto of your choice from this bull run was probably a pretty non-reproducible fluke though. Once the leverage in crypto markets gets cracked down on (up to 100:1 leverage is definitely contributing to the

So funny enough, there _are_ some people looking at ways of generating cash flows with NFTs. For instance, some projects have offered a chunk of their fees from resales to users, or offer a token reward for staking the NFT. Or in Bored Ape

Not that I disagree about something being deeply wrong, but VM's your only option. Docker is more or less hardcoded to Linux, so you need a Linux kernel somewhere. Docker Desktop just runs a light one for you that you don't worry

I gotta imagine you could probably sneak a good chunk of selling in before people noticed or the thing went to zero. You'll likely have time to plan after breaking it, so you could move quick, and there are many long inactive wallets w

Before you take a call, make sure they have done their homework and are presenting a role that is the right fit for you. If they won’t tell you the company or basic information through email, throw them out — they’re not acting in good fait

Communications like what? A short screen call is pretty standard. Many "candidates" aren't serious, so they show good faith by hopping on the phone. Text only communication is the path to getting ghosted, especially when it c

Annoying, but an important signal in a job search. If they don't have it together when they should be putting their best foot forward, they're going to be a complete disaster on the other side.

Nah, it's because in order to convince you to make a major life change, you have to speak to them on the phone first. Tell me, have you ever interviewed for and accepted a job 100% through email?

Sounds like you could probably vet recruiters/opps a bit more heavily. You have to place your chips on the best bets and screen aggressively to make sure there's a mutual fit. You can hang up on them quickly if things don't s

Are you going to go work a job without ever talking face to face with someone there? If not, then getting you on the phone is an absolute necessity along the path to you accepting an offer. It's also practical for covering items like s

Huge HCL fan here. It basically fixed all my gripes with other configuration languages. Not too heavy, not too light and I love auto-hclfmt. I'm a bit sad it was so unpopular, and e.g., abandoned for Github Actions in favor of YAML.
