so hard to read that text

That was an Emperial ban when emperors had power. Pulling a similar stunt now would be impossible.

Late 80's into 90's.

I feel like his comments do not apply to all of the world. In Japan for example, meat consumption is so prominent that we hardly ever consider not having meat. Sure, there is a lot…

Back when I was a kid, after a heavy downpour the roads would be crowded with earthworms. You really had to watch where you step to avoid stepping on one of those suckers. Fast for…

Most startups don't have an exit, I believe most fail. So you could be sitting at a failing startup and your options worthless.

You really don't have to figure out anything, it's all been written about many times over and posted all over. The post is a good summary but lacks details. I am a UX consultant, n…

Haha, I am not looking to find out but I'm sure it'll happen soon enough. Oh god.. just thinking about the exhaustion that comes with that, maybe I'll run off into the desert.

I am thinking of launching a course on how to become a UX consultant / designer if anyone here designs and wishes to go down that path. Let me know... You can expect 60-150k, work …

It makes total sense. If your time is worth way more than theirs (in terms of pay), why not outsource as much of your daily boring, time-consuming work to someone else?

We had a kid last year. My time went from some availability to NONE. Granted, we don't have a babysitter, both myself and wife stay at home (I work from home, she doesn't work). De…

I'm in Japan. Last year I remitted $16k. My residence is paid for and I spent an additional $12k cash. In total, I live on 28k / year. Add in a residence if I had to rent, down whe…

I can attest to this. Being on your own clock is still stressful in some ways, but compared to a standard work week - not even close.

Chase beats Citybank - they ask for a case sensitive password but dont care about case sensitivity when entering your password.

Can we get a list of Skype alternatives going? I feel like it's time to dump the corporate behemoth mess.

Youd be surprised. I have worked with some large multinational companies that do zero testing before making product changes.

Start your own business, hire people and treat them well. When people keep working for shitheads, the shitheads dictate their lives.

If your company is acquired, it is reasonable to expect that you'll be laid off, no matter how talented. Acquisition = layoffs - general rule of thumb.

I am really curious what goes on in the minds of the people working at these companies in top positions. How do they sleep at night? Do they simply say to themselves "I'm just one …

I think this is one of many approaches stated in this video: https://www.ted.com/talks/chad_frischmann_100_solutions_to_c...

I think people are trying. It's an uphill battle, but better than doing absolutely nothing. We may sink the ship but we'll try to swim to shore. If people profiting off the environ…

Any positive effort is good news to me. We need more of this, everywhere, along with the thousands of other moving parts that need to happen to change the world.

If only every airline would stop flights into China... see how quickly they acknowledge Taiwan as a country.

The reason I did weekly vs monthly pricing is simply because it breaks down to a "smaller" amount, visually ;) But yeah.. in essence you are just asking for a monthly retainer. Als…
