gdonelli··on Not Having A Real Job
For some people having a life is harder than having a job. For some other people having a job is harder than having a life. Not sure who is more lucky between the two groups.
gdonelli··on Ask HN: How do you have time for dates and gym when working for a startup?
Assuming you find a boyfriend, will you have time for him?

If you say, I will make time.. then it is even more important to make time for yourself first (In my opinion)

Online dating is very popular in SF, however it is not the only way to find a partner. I never felt comfortable with it, and it took me time but eventually found a person I like.

Finding a good partner is a hard, especially when you are in school anymore. It will take time.

"Most of the homeless in SF actually want to be on the streets."

I have heard this from many americans, for some reason my european mindset cannot get why someone would not want shelter or food.. a reliable manner.

Most of these people have not had the opportunity to do any better. It is not their fault.

gdonelli··on Freelancing and Lifestyle Design
I think he forgot to mention that you need to try the freelancing route when you have saved some $$$ buffer, for me it was about a year worth of free falling.

It is going to be bumpy and you need to have the peace of mind to focus on the present.

Moving to a foreign country to save money could be a good idea, but only if you would like to live abroad. If you do it only for the money your life will be miserable. Also the cost of leaving your local network behind might be very high

gdonelli··on Windows NT Kernel Contributor Explains Why Performance is Behind Other OS
"our good people keep retiring or moving to other large technology companies, and there are few new people achieving the level of technical virtuosity needed to replace the people who leave."
