    It is interesting that a similar thing happened when millions of manufacturing jobs were offshored to China and other low-cost sites. Now it has come to the tech industry, and ever…

    Ask HN: How do you make tough decisions?

    I am running a startup after years of waiting for the 'best idea'. I realised, if I had started somewhere instead of waiting for 'the one idea', I would still have learned a lot an…

    I don't think you are missing anything here. Both work in different ways (I have worked with companies as large as 250k+ employees to 2 employees). Both try to achieve different th…

    I tried that, but I try to search in wide world, sometimes about topics that I don't even understand. So I don't know where to look. And many of my searches are like that (examples…

    Can you elaborate more on this? I think we are getting blocked :|

    Not just any videos. Now I even speed up movies on netflix. That's why I have to watch them on laptop now, as I can't speed them up on TV.

    I see a really good example in India's UPI. You can make payments upto $600 USD using that, it directly deducts from your bank account and you can do P2P too.

    I agree to that, not just it kills local job market, it is exploiting foreign workers. I read Theranos' account, and I imagined many Indian workers kept working because they had no…

    That's true for FAANG companies as well. They have slowed down hiring in US since it has become really hard to bring that talent in the country. Instead they are slowly moving thei…

    I second what you said here. I worked as a CTO of a start up which was primarily driven by ego and lies of the CEO. He didn't want to go a rational way and constantly duped (yes du…

    In india, a pin is mandatory for all the purchases even when there were no chip cards. Uber had some trouble because it could not charge credit cards like they do in US, as our car…
