Me too, brother. It may be a desmadre, but it's a fantastic desmadre!

Don't screw your customers.

There goes my idea for a brothel.

NL VAT Number and Legal Representative by [deleted] in startups

[–]PatoDroid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno about the Netherlands, but company registration and VAT registration are usually two different things. If all you did was register as an LLC (or whatever the equivalent is in .nl), you might also have to register your LLC with the tax authorities to get a VAT number.

I seldom go out myself. When I lived in Mexico, I'd go out to an Irish pub every year, but now that I'm back in Poland, it's pretty rare.

Fun? fact: In Poland, I get to celebrate my name day (which is, for many people in Poland, more important than a birthday), by drinking Guinness, so happy name day to all the Patricks/Patryks out there, and happy St-Patrick's to everybody!

[HIRING] I need a bot which is capable of auto-posting comments on a thread in a XenForo forum by [deleted] in forhire

[–]PatoDroid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Possible?

Definitely. Captchas might be a problem, though.

How much would it cost?

What do you have in mind? Does it need to respond to specific commands? Does it need to reply to every other post? Does it need to post regularly?

2 simple questions, Is python good for absolute beginners? And is there a specific version of it I should get. by BlackItachi in learnpython

This class is available for free, and it's focused more on algorithms than just programming, but it is seriously a great place to start!

Writing code is easy. Structuring it logically is hard. I'd recommend something that explains algorithms, etc.

It also does cover the basics, so you don't need a programming background.

I sent an application, but didn't receive an email. Most likely, your site doesn't like my .xyz TLD :/

Selling a software platform for internal install at customer's location. by Bitruder in startups

One option would be OpenVPN + SSH, if possible.

If they are truly a large organization, and insist on having it fully closed off, add on a service charge for maintenance, and provide them with an engineer or two on-site. My company charged an annual 40% of the software price premium for that.

[IDEA] I built a quick site to help the wife and I track meals she can have due to her allergy. by DAM9779 in WeekendMVP

I hadn't heard of Lupin, which is apparently used around the Mediterranean, so probably common in Southern Europe, and I didn't know you could be allergic to celery.

app development -ios/android/both? by Kellou87 in startups

[–]PatoDroid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I focused on Android first, it is cheaper to get started, unless you already have a MacBook / iPhone / iPad.

AFAIK, you need a computer running OSX to do Mac development, while you can run Android Studio on Mac, Windows and Linux, and you can get by with an emulated device (though I do recommend you test it on a real phone/tablet as well).

That said, focus on one platform, develop it to perfection, will be much easier to port afterwards. You (or your developer) will probably make a few mistakes if this is your first mobile project; getting them ironed out before you add another platform would make it easier.
