  1. Are you an Aussie for tax purposes?

    If so, I'd personally default to Australia and worry about the rest after having some success.

    If not, I'd go Delaware.

  2. Usually by the Reasonable Person Test: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reasonable_person.

    It can be pretty subjective, but it often gets clarified with enough common law precedent (which can be amended with a new law if it becomes abused/unfair/odd).

  3. This is super impressive!

    Is there a common open source library (Python, JS, whatever) that implements something like this?

  4. Yes. I wouldn't "work" for a company that didn't provide me with hardware.

    I'm assuming you're using "work" to mean an employee-employer relationship.

    If you want me to provide my own hardware, I'm a contractor and will not lock in to an exclusive relationship with your company and charge a significant premium.

  5. You've given us a few paragraphs about the situation. No one here can tell you if he was attempting to disrespect you.

    I'll note that you've called this person a friend in your post, so it's likely you know them pretty well. Instead of asking strangers on the internet with only a very reduced understanding of your relationship dynamic and past conversations, why not have a chat with your friend and ask them directly?

    If you're considering this person as your cofounder, you're going to need a strong communication foundation. Getting offended by a perceived lack of respect (which could be valid, but it doesn't sound like you're sure they meant offence since you're asking the question here) is not a good place to start any business relationship.

  6. It’s not really the specific employees making that call. Being a “principle engineer” is the job title in the contract.
  7. Just a note, but you can’t delete a comment if it receives a child comment.
  8. > although to be fair sociopathy is essentially just another form of stupidity

    Out of curiosity, what do you mean by this?

  9. Awesome to hear!

    How do you handle this? Do you store the SQLite file somewhere like s3 or just in memory?

    How does this work for such high traffic sites?

  10. Appreciate the link! You've given me a fun project for the Easter break.
  11. Beeper looks pretty awesome!

    Sorry to hijack the thread, but from the above link:

    > Yes, iMessage works even on Android, Windows and Linux!

    How could this be sustainable long-term? I've hacked together tools to forward iMessage content before and it's very unappealing.

    I suspect they must be using a makeshift solution. I hope it works (and would sign up if there was a way on the landing page), but this seems like building on sand.

  12. I somehow stumbled across this over the weekend.

    There's a React component library (with a deployed storybook):

  13. > I think my company has been treating it too much like the latter.

    I think that's very common.

  14. Swap out some with most. Glad I'm not in an office.
  15. I did something similar. Searching for verify and verification are good for those cases where you signed up with a Gmail email.

    You can also navigate to Settings > Security > Signing in with Google to see everywhere that you've used Google Sign in (oAuth).

  16. Sup anon,

    I'm from the same area and work in the same niche.

    If you have passable React skills and any past experience, you should be employable now.

    I wouldn't bother with the todo app. It's too generic on a resume to gauge anything relevant (since more tutorials are copy/paste and don't show any major problem solving).

    Just start applying on Seek. There are tons of short term gigs that will take anyone. That's a great place to start.

    Portfolios (i.e deployed personal projects) are huge here. This differs a lot from SV where they seem to have less bearing to get you in the door. The main point of note is that the projects need to be unique in some way.
