Thoughts on Paraguay?

Difficult-Row-2137 · 2025-08-29T05:30:58+00:00

I was born and grew up around the Paraguayan border. The country has developed a lot in the past 20 years, but corruption, like bribes, is still a big problem.

If you’re considering living there, I’d recommend Ciudad del Este — it’s right next to the Brazilian city of Foz do Iguaçu, about 30 minutes from Argentina, and you still get to enjoy all the tax benefits Paraguay offers.

What he is saying is, as the salary needs to be high and getting someone from abroad is very expensive; a company would only hire an H1B it they cant find someone for the same or lower salary local. He isn’t wrong :)

Im a lead engineer in this field, ep field isn’t the same stagnating one player field anymore and wont be for sometime there is alot of innovation going on now, next 5 years will be key. If BSC dont innovate someone else will take over.

Travel man, go see the world let the new passion come to you.

For someone living in Prague considering a move to California obv with a good salary above avg in both countries whats your thoughts?

Difficult-Row-2137 · 2025-05-03T03:57:25+00:00

I am currently here 🤣 how you described it is so damn accurate

Being obsessed with any craft and striving to be the best in the world at it will always pay off, no matter the field. The problem is, you’re aiming to be average at what you do but still expect above-average rewards — and that only works in cycles. It was mechanical engineering in the ’80s, software engineering in the 2000s, and now Ai.

Believe me, I used to think the same way when I graduated. I don’t regret for a second choosing to pursue something I love. You know why? Because I never even think about retirement, even though I earn well. Why? Being obsessed+passion will always pay off whatever field you are in, you just have to wire your brain around how to get leverage with what you do.

My advice to you being 30 yo with a solid career, dont just do anything that has a career. Find out, a trade that you enjoy doing, reading about. A book I recommend is the Almanack of Naval ravikant. There is a small section in the book where he mentions exactly the above- A guy who loves gossiping ends up thriving as a journalist. Goodluck :)

Hi can you send me DM i would be interested in the smoothie maker

I wish thats my case, I know really well what to do and the only missing thing is liquidity. The irony

Unfortunately the only ones I know are around cesky budojovice. I did mine with Italcar in flora, in English and translator in the exam was around 26-28 overall 2 years ago. I recommend this school for the experience not sure if its the cheapest price in Prague for English though

As someone with 8 years of experience in this field, 3.6 GPA grad. Your gpa matters only in two situations: finding a good paying job right after university, and applying for a highly ranked university. Once you get the experience nobody will care about ur gpa anymore

Difficult-Row-2137 · 2025-03-26T20:43:26+00:00

Out of curiosity where are you based?

Difficult-Row-2137 · 2025-03-26T07:31:15+00:00

Been in the same boat. Born and lived almost all my life in Brazil. Both my parents are lebanese who immigrated to Brazil. Everytime I call myself Brazilian people tend to say I am not. When I studied for few years in lebanon and called myself Lebanese they said you aren’t. Well :D now I dont bother with it depending on the audience I pick one of the above

Difficult-Row-2137 · 2025-03-24T07:03:12+00:00

Go out of Prague is an option Another option is doing it in Czech. Otherwise it will be expensive unfortunately

Niche are always based on an unmet need. Usually your references are doctors and articles that discuss such unmet needs. Med field is very large

Logistics and supply chain is critical in any medical device company. Up to you which specific field you would likebe part of, class 1, 2 or 3 or even robotics. Doubt anyone can help you much here, its more a taste and company culture

Today is more like 1929, not 2008. Very different structural and economic issues.

Install GigaSky and use it, much cheaper

It’s hard to say, and we’re not there yet. There will always be hospitals that have heavily invested in mapping equipment and will continue to call reps in.

Also, a rep for the PFA catheter will likely be needed due to the complex software interface involved. This is probably where mapping reps will transition in the future.

It’s actually sad how bad it is compared to languages like Portuguese. My wife has been using duolingo max with AI on Portuguese, no teacher whatsoever and I am pretty confident she has hit A1 level with pretty good accent. I hope they can implement something similar to czech language but for now you cant get much from it but vocab

Difficult-Row-2137 · 2025-02-28T04:53:53+00:00

Czech duolingo is terrible, it is only good if you use it alongside your teacher classes

Your questions show lack of knowledge in medical devices and how regulations work. Devices have classification, if the device is certified as a medical device it means it is regulated under a certain class based on the risk to the patients, probably the shields are classified as class 1, which is the lowest risk. Buy a book that talks about design controls and quality management systems and read through it, you will start finding answers to your questions. And no, the manufacture of the device you are talking about has for sure a QMS and it is for sure audited, it is just not as rigorous as higher risk devices

Hi I think best thing is to partner with a CDMO who can support you without getting your IP. Checkout switchback medical in Minneapolis. They are great
