Can you please explain, why the ruby engineer vacancy is remote only within certain countries - FR, PT, GB, NL, ET, and IT? Why if I live in Latvia or Poland, or Sweden, I can't work with you? I don't want to call you out, but it's just interesting to understand why it's like that and specifically, why we can't try to make the geography more diverse, at least within EU?

Yeah but it doesn’t matter - if someone inputs something weird you will anyhow fail with TypeError

For some reason, the left clock is going faster than right for me.

This is why now instead of taking notes, I only take voice notes. Each time I need to think about something, to clarify in my mind, I launch Voice Memos on my iOS device and record my thoughts.

It immensely helped me to structure my mind and be more clear about my ideas. I highly recommend that to anyone.

I think it’s quite clear: when I search for something, what I want to see, it’s people arguing with each other on my topic of search, and I want to read their various arguments, and make my decision.

This is why I like HN and artisan forums so much, or even Reddit.

Google could do just one thing - prioritize giving out the discussions of real people. But they just don’t wanna do it apparently

Hey, but what I should do, if, say, I don’t have my own house and I really need to buy one? How can I just stop doing what I don’t love in that situation?

Also, what about the situation when one day you really love your work and find it very interesting and fulfilling, but the other day it’s just the opposite?

My idea is about that, I think that every developer, when joins the project, must have an equal share of the whole profit of the company, just like the founders do. Otherwise it's not fair, that the product of their labor doesn't bring them any dividends.

But I agree that it's of course strange, for example, why would the builder of the house get the part of profits of the house after it's built? It's also a bit not fair

It's interesting, how much this question is controversial. I also have had similar problem. It was a bit different, but similar. Much time passed, but I still can't understand who was right. But I also can't understand, why I was fired, and the manager stayed. Was it me who is wrong, or the manager?

I think it would be good to reach some kind of consensus. Is it okay for the manager to be rude and not listening to needs of developer?
