What on earth is about marketing to women now and using the promise of finding ones 'tribe'? It's really cringey and fake to me.

I hate to break it to you, but anyone who starts a business is not the average European anyway.

Does it really matter how much better it is when you can go immediately bankrupt from a simple procedure? I imagine there is immense pressure and loss of wealth by simple virtue that people probably don't maintain good health but go in

What do you mean when you want to be an entrepreneur? What makes you tick? Do you want to discover talent, help fund ideas, work on the ground level within a company? There are plenty of really useful things that have been built in Europ

You should clarify that your experience us pretty much exclusive to web development which is bot indicative of a lot of work that goes on in software creation and computer science research. Just a weird nit pick of mine that most people her

Good thing it isnt? What a stupid argument. People have gotten by just fine without making their asses wet and patting them dry everytime they shit for a while now. How do you know the water doesn't just spread shit everywhere and you

Do you have any suggested reading around software as art vs business? You pretty much began to articulate the things I've been thinking about lately.

They are 'allowing' people into a private beta of a programming language? Coupled with the fact it is not open source and has a bunch of fad ad-tech videos on the front page this is so many red flags.

How did you go about finding a low stress position? I'm super interested in working just enough to live so I can actually enjoy my life.

Sometimes paying for services that you don't use has unseen benefits to parts of your life and the wider community. Consistently well funded services can develop institutional knowledge and allow greater dissemenation of the fruits of
