I would love to see mininalistic design. There are way too many choices available to me and most of them are of no or minimal use.

Until you need to use an external device - camera, microphone, speakers, printer, scanner... most of the game mice keyboards...

Exactly the same thing happened to WordPress in version 5 when they changed the default editor. I am surprised that innovation is not embraced but it is met with strong opposition most of the time. What amuses me is that no one switched from X to Slack because of the editor but some will switch from Slack because of it.

IMO 99.9% of remote workers from a country are also citizens of the country. The only difference would be top expat/nomad countries.

The same is happening with Microsoft GitHub Actions and the impact it has over Travis CI.

I do not see how this will make you safer than running the distro from a disk drive. I believe you are at a higher risk than others because you are running apt update on every boot and thats how you would get infected if launchpad was compromised - but it is not.

Why would you raise the card limit? Panic?

To the best of my knowledge there is no such thing.

I was interviewing a guy for IT position 6 years ago. After one of the questions, he went silent for a long period of time. It has not happened to me before. I did not think for a moment about interrupting him, it was obvious he is thinking how to approach the problem or his answer. Interviewing people requires patience, cut down on caffeine before an interview

Do you know why the sector did not boom?

Missing a runtime... missing dll... missing direct3d or different version of it, compatibility for certain version of Windows. It is all the same everywhere.

Hehe. The CEO article is the one I thought of when I saw the news. Well done sharing it here

3m is snack money for VC nowadays.

From WikiPedia "Abigail E. Disney (born January 24, 1960) is an American documentary filmmaker, philanthropist, and activist known for her documentary films focused on social themes.".

Her background/experience does not make her an expert in employee compensation. Am I missing something to this, other than her family name, of course?

CoinBase is a terribly run company. I had the pleasure of using them for 6 months. Their support does not exist. Half of the transactions are held for a few days. The reason why they are still running is that they got the license to operate such business in many states. The moment someone offers the same but with actual support... their business will suffer.

It is how most millenials write nowadays

Is vendor lock really an issue that needs to be solved? I am wondering if one had to ever switch vendors in practice. It sounds like over optimization to something that might not even be in the requirements. I remember a few years ago when infrastructures were designed to be able to handle 1m+ requests per second long before market validation. Keep it simple and focus on getting your app to the market.

Downloading files is something I would not be using serverless due to the timeouts - 900s

Every chargeback from a fraudulent transaction costs ~$25 to businesses.

Yes. AWS is that awesome with the number of different and sophisticated services that they offer. Azure is probably the only other cloud that comes close. DigitalOcean is cheap, unreliable, and the amount of services being offered can be counted on the fingers of my one hand. I can talk about the issues there are with DO on a daily basis. Once you are past MVP, your business needs a better home.

Yes, 1.5 years ago and the results were poor. Has anything changes during that time? Is it worth another look?

Absolutely, I do not know for certain.

Yes. We offer it. What we do not have is working on a bleeding edge work - electric vehicles, space flights, cure cancer .. etc

Thank you. It is refreshing to get the perspective from the other side of the table.

I recently learned about hired.com. We are pending approval with them. I will check the other sites that you mentioned

I recently asked a question where this answer would fit - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19627404

We have tried this with 3 different candidates: 1. No experience last year in university 2. No experience with BS 3. 1 year working experience

My experience with this approach is that it is a far more expensive investment that takes long time to pay off. The safe ratio that I can recommend is 5 seniors to 1 junior

Thank you for doing this. I will try to reach you on the site. I believe this topic will be useful to many other business owners.

We are paying higher than top companies.

Yes, compensation is not the issue. It is finding the people.

Thank you for the 2 cents. Very useful suggestions. I have experimented with disclosing the compensation. The result was a bit surprising - less applications. Can disclosed compensation be intimidating to some?

My pain point is getting the offer infront of the right eyes.
