Its highly unlikely you'll get to the UK as you have a record which will be visible to the UK authorities & fail the character test. If you apply i'd also advise you not to try and hide it as it would worsen the situation.

Have you considered Nairobi, it is quite a nice place and far from "hell hole". You would not have much trouble accessing it and it has a relatively good standard of life, good jobs and prospects.

Is this even a surprise, the industry moved to a per user model a while back, inc Bitbucket. So its unlimited private repositories but you pay big time to get more than 5 users sharing that repo.

It's surprising most people here aren't picking up on that. If you have more private projects on that make money. It's more likely you have more collaborators that you have to pay.

I've had a similar experience to this guy. It depends on the number of days but I reckon 5x is average. It only takes a couple of days of the first week in a month to cross the threshold of 1x.

Also there can be a secondary multiplier if you have 2 gigs at once. So 5x becomes 10x if you have two.

I don't think most people who do this are interested in going at it this way 252 days a year though but yeah if one's keen to 500k is possible.

I had an allergy to certain types of grasses. I changed my diet a bit to try and alter my gut flora alongside not avoiding the grasses. The allergy is significantly less/not noticable & far more tolerable. I even stopped antihistamines.

1) By Brex, its a charge card (like Amex)

2) You pay the bill they send you every month using ACH/your corporate bank account.

3) The credit limit depends on how much you've raised & the company's ability to pay it back. Additionally you need to commit to not using any other bank's credit/charge card.

Actually it is more informed than ignorant. Remove Sweden and UK from the the European list and you have needles in a haystack.

Even if you account for the 'unicorn' adge there is barely have innovation in Europe. On the social front too too, European pay and ownership is more concentrated in the hands of the leaders and is less evenly distributed than American counterparts.

Your comment strikes me a bit as if it comes from a defensive point of view instead of taking a hard look at things.

I never wanted to disable the app, only disable notifications. The app however, made this impossible. It kept having popups and kept redirect to settings to re-enable them. The popups were so bad it made using the app without push notifications impossible. So I just deleted it instead.

It's pretty bad if you ask me. A governments job is to follow the law too and not use its discretion in 'unwritten law' that is secretive.

No problem if they publicly said they would do this, but this way is precisely the problem of developing countries. You wouldn't think it would happen in America.

In simple terms most of Benelux & German GDP doesn't make its way into citizens pockets, as a result pay is relatively poor and has an impact on the standard of living. This is a result of official policy (Tarifeinheitsgesetz) meant to make labour more competitive.

If you look up GDP it is pretty big, but if you look up wages you will find its relatively bad.

It'll be interesting to see what happens with the UK. While this is bad for them i'm speaking of countries in the EU but not in the EZ that have far better metrics across the board inc Sweden, Norway, Denmark & Poland. If you take a 30 year period and compare them to Europe's best (Germany) you can see drastic improvements in them relatively.

It's very distracting to keep looking at the UK and Brexit and forget that others on the continent clearly do better without the Euro. There are still countries in the Eu with EZ opt outs.

I'd also like to point out Switzerland is not in the Euro and not in the EU and its metrics are far better on everything - although it is in Schengen.

GDP growth, consumption growth, manageability of debt, standard of life, employment rate. The central question being not "how big is it because of the euro" but "is it better because of the euro"

Germany and Benelux are high but problematic in areas of consumption. 41% of the German Economy is export orientated (meaning consumption is extremely low) and while employment rates are high, employment isn't completely 'full time', wages lag productivity significantly (pay is relatively bad) and debts in the private sector are heavily problematic. Not to mention Germany's population demographics don't have a bright future.

Contrast this to economies with their own currencies - the UK, Sweden, Norway, Poland, Denmark - which aren't dogged down by such problems. Sweden had a housing crash last year and is managing just fine despite it.

If the EZ had another crash it would be debatable whether it can still hold strong - a point reinforced by France's Finance Minister himself.

Europe's most successful countries are the ones with their own currencies. It's easy to compare the differences in growth and debt with those in and out of the EZ. Ireland is the only true exception & it's for reasons relating to its tax policies.

I wish they'd fix the 7 days transfers in the EU. I don't get how the service can be so bad here and yet stacking layers of iteration and evolving elsewhere.
