This seems pretty accurate to what I had in mind

Then why pay the customer to do it too?

Close faster. Don't do any of this "custom code or helped with integration" bullshit unless they're paying you for it. Develop intuition.

That's about all you can do. 75 emails is... A lot without making a sale. Fwiw I'll usually get 1-3 emails asking what client wants, hopefully a phone call, I write a proposal and send it over, I wait a few days and follow up asking what they think. Maybe the want to negotiate terms or whatever, that's 1-3 more emails and maybe another call. All in all <10 emails, 2 calls max, and I either have a sale or I say thanks and feel free to contact me in the future if they're interested in this or other work.

I never work for free without getting paid for something first. I won't do coding tests, I won't write code, I won't figure out a problem. I will give them expert advice if I can and if it will help them see the value of my work. However say I've had a client pay for a job before and they have a small ask - I'll probably do it for free if it's 2 or less hours one time.

And intuition - I mean that's hard but you gotta be able to read people. Know when they're kicking tires, know when they're in over their head or out of their element, know when they don't have the Auth to get a request filled.

"This will show Cleveland is a live and happening place"

"Cleveland will no longer be the butt of jokes"

They were releasing balloons... They weren't even trying to set the bar high and it still blew up in their faces...

Dude... Not to be a dick but you claim you have experience yet you're signing away half your company without seeing a dime and with clauses that explicitly state they don't ever have to actually pay you? None of this adds up. I have zero experience with getting funding and even I'd insist on a 10% down payment minimum. Otherwise wtf was the point of getting an investor?

Does medium even provide any valuable content? Every time I've been there's it's been nothing but people who are total amateurs talking out of their ass as tho they're experts.

Like the idea in general, but I do not agree that diverse executive teams should be incentivized. That's discriminatory.

Then by your own logic developers salaries are low. If you're replacing three people and not being paid three salaries then the company has just found a way to squeeze more blood for less.

I really dislike this kind of clickbait. I've never heard anything of owls dying and now I have this condescending headline talking down to me.

What was this scam?

China and other countries do steal our IP routinely and get away with it no punishment. What point are you trying to make?

My argument makes plenty of sense and it's very easy to ingest - if you aren't a member of my country and receive no privileges as tho you're a member of my country then you shouldn't be punished like you're a member of my country. What about that are you exactly arguing against?

Huh so the cops think giving cops the ability to search for punishable behavior might be an issue...

Facebook is so corrupt and evil that you have to assume the worst by default. Otherwise they're probably still manipulating you somehow.

Thanks for that. It's crazy how much left propaganda there has been and how initially it was all about Russia. Choose whatever political opinion you want but what Facebook is doing is dystopian.

Yet the end of the article says that beer drinkers have been switching to wine and spirits. I don't think I trust the industry to be unbiased when explaining it's layoffs. Having worked for a corp that had a huge annual layoff season - it's all about saving face.

You think an international merger couldn't affect 40k jobs while maintaining output (mergers ought to increase efficiency or output. If they weren't beneficial they wouldn't be done considering immense risks), but you think tariffs that are still plausibly temporary and which have only been in effect for a week would cause those 40k jobs? Why?

In that case you and other Americans probably break laws in China and Russia. Should you be handed over to those countries because of that? Because that's what you're saying here

I really fail to see how it's criminal for someone in another country to explain how to hack a computer system our govt has. I fail to see how it's criminal for them to even encourage someone to hack the system. They aren't our citizen, they don't get our benefits and rights, they don't have to act the way we want them to.

This isn't different than the Chinese govt demanding us citizens be surrendered who break Chinese social laws.

Tbf self driving cars are at a point where there's still 99%+ of the job loss remaining. Only toy cars are doing any real self driving at this point. After taxis are automated and then commercial trucking is when we can say how much displacement there will be. Similar for AI - at this point it's still novelty as far as where it will go.

Journalists around the world pay attention: The US government has control over journalism and that's the way they intend to keep it.

... Is us governmental corruption and abuse of power so bad that were willing to say "yeah but China and Russia would do it too"? Cuz that's bleak...

Nothing. Capitalism solves all problems. If not then wed be socialist.

Honest question, do Hillarys power circles now latch onto Biden? Or are they distinct?

Plenty of contractors have set hours and come into an office. Several friends in software contracting firms for example do that. Also uber doesn't agree to pay you a damn thing. You could literally go work for 4 hours and make <$10.

Ideas are easy to be good. Implementation and upkeep is where Google usually struggles.

Yeah I mean the amount of homicides just related to drug cartels in Mexico is approximately the same humber of total homicides in the US. This, despite Mexico having a bit more than 1/3 of the US population. Not to mention the issues with the economy.

Sure and vice versa for us about Europe. Either way Mexico is much more worse off than the other two entities.

Non competes should be enforced symmetrically. If a company won't let you work for another company they can't hire another employee.

Little guys don't get to ride on the dmca fast track from what I understand.

I also wouldn't just rinse it with water.

And what of the fecal aggregate?
