This is not true, you need one schengen visa even if your country doesn't have visa agreement with EU (my country doesn't have).
My parents did it twice in their 40s. I had to help them learn the language and assimilate but it's doable. That said, moving to the US was much easier than to another European country.
Uh no, not really.

P.S I would add the U.K to the list, especially London. Might feel a bit less "claustrophobic" than Ireland.
Apollo Agriculture (https://apolloagriculture.com/) | Amsterdam, NL or Nairobi, Kenya | ONSITE

Apollo Agriculture is bringing commercial farming to everyone, starting with farmers in Kenya. We take a proven package of agricultural inputs, the training to use them, and sell them on credit to farmers at a price they can afford. We have great credit models that help us figure out who will pay us back and a custom digital loan pipeline that helps us make these small loans in an efficient way.

We use Scala + Postgres on the backend, Kotlin on our mobile team, and python on our DS team, but are increasingly moving towards scala all over. (For Scala, on the scale from "Java++" to "Bad Haskell" I'd say we're right in the middle. We use a number of functional features but are pragmatists about it.)

We're hiring for excellent software engineers, with a slight preference towards backend engineers currently. To apply, email earl@apolloagriculture.com with a LinkedIn, a resume, or something that shows me why you're fantastic.
Tons of businesses continue to function with excel without difficulty. Of course if you're shooting for a SV "unicorn" growth curve you're going to leave excel in the dust pretty quick, but a great many businesses in a wide range of industries find excel continues to meet their demands for a lot longer than you might expect.

I think it's worth mentioning how remote work makes society more sustainable.

The energy usage and CO2 output for commuting versus using the internet is dramatically in favor of remote work.

In fact, if we are concerned with those things, I believe that commuting every day for jobs that can be done online should be illegal.

Implementing Blind Transfer with Amazon Connect Streams API
In other news, all aircraft may have defective parts at all times, which is why manufacturers issue airworthiness directives requiring inspection and replacement whenever they become aware of this situation.

Only the 737 Max part grabs the headlines, touted by unscrupulous actors who create fact-free clickbait to enrich their media empires.

Cue anti-Boeing comment pile-on by people who are blissfully free from actual information but still think their opinion matters in 3, 2, 1...
You can build fluid-based logic gates[1], so I think it should be possible to make a Turing machine (with the usual caveat that you'll most likely need such a large grid that actually simulating it is impractical)

Hey Sean from Cargo here. Cargo is a tool that provides businesses and developers freedom and efficient independence from 3rd party payment processors and app stores. Cargo utilizes the Ethereum blockchain to open new avenues for digital creators and sellers. It's our mission to help change the way the world buys and sells, using a decentralized system that empowers new economies and opportunities and lets our users keep more of what they earn.

From digital collectibles to art to houses - you can use Cargo to tokenize all these things and quickly begin selling. You don't need to write a single line of code and can interact directly with the Cargo dashboard, or you can create a fully customized app experience for your users by using the Cargo APIs. There is a JavaScript library, or you can interact directly with the smart contracts. No account needed. You just need a wallet to connect your browser (desktop or mobile) to the Ethereum blockchain. Check it out! Feedback is definitely welcome. There are more features coming down the pipeline soon.

> If the 1% are the only people who can fly, that's a lot less fuel being burned.

I agree. The question is who are these 1% of people. Carbon tax means that they are the richest 1%. I hope our society has enough imagination to consider other options.

Cruise ships do pretty well. I looked up prices and capacities and found you can build a large cruise ship for about $100K per resident. The biggest ship I found could house 9000 people.

Seasteads would mostly use aquaculture, so you don't need much growing room on the ship. If you're close to a shipping lane you can trade for other foods you want, just like everybody else does.

Fuck remote work. It only works to marginalize people such that they're less than telemarketers in a call center.

Every remote worker I have hated, and being a remote worker was just as bad.

You think toxic personalities are bad in the office, where ego, pride and a sweaty penis in your face is no fun at all? Just wait until you're reduced to a tedious phone call or less, by those exact same personalities.

Not in this life. Not for a cool million dollars. Not for five hot seconds.
SevenFifty Technologies | Senior Full-stack Developer (Rails); Lead Engineer, Web & Mobile Product Team | New York, NY | Onsite

SevenFifty is modernizing the wholesale beverage alcohol industry, which is massive but technologically antiquated. Over 70,000 restaurants, bars, hotels, and retail stores across the country connect with their sales reps and wholesalers through our platform, replacing a status quo going back to Prohibition. We work with everyone from the largest importers to mom and pop winemakers to build bespoke tools for communication, content distribution, and order management, providing transparency across all tiers.

You'll be joining a small engineering team tackling a wide array of challenges - from complex data processing to modern, interactive web frontends; from liberating data from decades old mainframes, to consuming and writing APIs used by everyone from small retail shops to large conglomerates. We want people who are excited about learning new technologies and passionate about transforming a broken industry. We're also in a sweet spot for ambitious and talented engineers; we have a lot of traction and are well-financed, but still have a very small team responsible for a wide range of work enabling you to take ownership of large slices of our technology stack.

Technologies: Ruby, Clojure, Rails, JavaScript, Backbone, React, React Native

Reach out with a recent resume to erin at sevenfifty dot com to apply.
I think you've got your numbers badly wrong.

Here in the UK, the average household used 4,648kWh of electricity in 2010. The industry average in 2008 was 527g CO2e/kWh, giving average emissions from electricity use of 2449kg per household. The above figures are falling rapidly due to efficiency and decarbonisation.

A round-trip from LHR to JFK produces about 1800kg CO2e.

Reducing my electricity consumption by 10% would just barely offset the carbon emissions of a short haul trip within Europe. A frequent air traveller could easily produce an extra 10 tonnes a year without really noticing.

That may get him some money but I doubt it would get him back on the field or even on a practice squad.
Thanks for your comment. We want our products to substantially decrease the barriers to international commerce, and they’re used by both businesses which are just getting started up to multinational companies with extremely sophisticated understanding of their payments needs.

Auth rates are a deep topic, and one we’re experimenting on constantly.

The topic of whether a particular business will get better auth rates going through a local gateway is a complicated one (that is probably true of many businesses and not true of many businesses); we’re working on making this sort of thing unnecessary for most businesses to think about. Philosophically, centralizing this sort of work at Stripe makes a lot of sense to us; we can deploy more engineers against auth rates than any Stripe customer could because we have a much larger surface area for improvement than any customer does.

Many of our users want something which works out of the box, and they’re the target audience for Checkout. If you want to rigorously test the behavior against your sophisticated understanding of conversions in your own business, that’s awesome; you can see exactly which transactions we flagged for being on the fence using the API.

It’s always a balancing act to make things which work out-of-the-box for someone’s first business on it’s first day and still have the power and configurability expected by extremely sophisticated operators. Getting this balance right is extremely important to us.
I have never in my life been paid nearly enough to spend this much time working. The physicians I know literally making 4x my salary aren't consistently working this much, so you must be quite well-compensated.

> Finding a seat there won't be any easier, but you won't be asked to move later.

It used to be really easy. Reserved seats had a paper ticket stuck in the back. Virgin trains switched to a small LED display on the edge of the luggage rack. Rather than have a single word like "Vacant" it has a scrolling message. As do reserved seats. So you have to peer at every single display as the text slowly scrolls past to figure out where you can sit. I don't know if this is gross incompetence or part of their ongoing efforts to discourage unbooked travel.
I'm with you. I'm not won over, and how does the media presume to speak for skeptics? There's 0 evidence that any 'skeptics' have been won over, only that pro-MS people are more pro-MS at this time.
We were told that for tax purposes, employees are only allowed to work in states/countries that already have an established office. My company has offices all over the place so it's not particularly restrictive but still a strict limit from working _anywhere_.
>It's foolish to anthropomorphize a corporation and have pity for it.

No more foolish than to anthropomorphize it and assign negative human qualities to it.
And this is precisely my point. Huawei was accused in the early 2000s of stealing Cisco IP. They settled the issue quietly back then.

Now, almost two decades later, after Huawei has spent billions in R&D and appears to be the market leader in 5G, all these old claims resurface, and the US government is quite openly trying to drive them out of business. Of course, by sheer coincidence, this happens while Trump is waging a trade war against China.

And for the record, Diogenes couldn't be a shill for anyone. Diogenes is happy living in his barrel in the market, do he clearly isn't motivated by money.

Now imagine you go to 2-4 conferences a year, like the plurality of the respondents. In addition to your own 40 mile commute.

If we're making great efforts to even slow down the acceleration of greenhouse gas emissions, I find it odd to come up with ways to rationalize emitting 2-3x the result of a very long commute. Especially when the endpoint is a programming/software conference.
> now plan to give foreign government agencies access to domestic corporate data.

What does this refer to? The EU has generally been strong on privacy protection.
I read that in Christoper Hitchens voice. What a powerful way to put words together and convey them.
> do people actually think "infinite vacation" is a perk? I like having a fixed number of vacation days that I can take without question or explanation.

It really depends on your manager and what the fixed number is going to be.

At my last job, I had "infinite" and my boss let me take six weeks over the course of a year.

At my current job, my boss would love to let me take 6 weeks (or more), but the giant behemoth of a company sets the limit at 3 weeks (but I get another week if I stay in my job for 10 years).
ESports: The new and rising varsity competition
Sure, I agree there are probably a large percentage of people who would opt not to work at all if they had the choice.

But I know there are also a lot of people who love their work and would want “work to do” whether they needed money or not.

Probably the biggest gap is that most people (have to) choose work based on pay, rather than choosing based on what they enjoy spending their time on.
Merge DirectX into Vulcan (without killing it) and then I'll be convinced.
Eliminating dead time is definitely part of it. However if a thinking based worker doesn't feel like working, it doesn't matter if they're sitting at an office. There's no way to verify whether they're thinking about a work related problem or thinking about their vacation plans. On top of that, in a lot of cases people can get away even with just blatant non-working like reading Hacker News on their work computer. Thus it's always about trust anyway. It doesn't matter much where the worker physically is.

Additionally, it's results not methods that should be managed. You want to set goals for your workers and see how they progress. Whether they achieve those goals sitting at an office or by outsouring their work to their little nephew while playing video games, it shouldn't really matter. Ultimately what matters is if the goals are achieved, as that's why you're paying the person -- not because you want them to physically be doing some specific activity.
What if these taxes were weighed disproportionately? If you are broke you don’t get taxed at all, but if you net 1k a day then you just got a $50 carbon tax added to your fare.
