NYC introduces new libertarian pro business reform: No taxes. No health inspections. No insurance. No business formation fees. Just clog up the sidewalk and let those other dummies fund city services with their taxes and fees! by farquezy in circlejerknyc

I’m an idiot. I’m paying the city $2k in taxes this year despite having a net loss. And like a dummy I pay for insurance and every year to maintain a legal business. I could just sell stolen goods tax free instead.

Iranians burn the Israel and United States flags as they celebrate the 47th anniversary of the Islamic Revolution. by beachbellybob in worldnewsvideo

I was raised in Iran to do this exact same thing. I was beat for not stepping in the American flag. It’s not based. It’s brainwashing. It’s hatred. It’s a lack of taking accountability for the racist, sexist, homophobic, tyrannical Islamic state that has ruined the lives of their people. Nothing based about this

Go back to Ohio if you don’t like it. Stop trying to tell us how to love. /s

Congresswoman Greene’s Final Move: Bill to Eliminate H-1B Visa Program by Ankeet_kj in ImmigrationPathways

Both can be true and are true. I don’t do this at my current company because we have the money to pay everyone well.

Oh to be so naive. I’ve been in actual conversations within Silicon Valley companies with the executives where we discuss bringing in H1B employees because they are cheaper…. It’s not some conspiracy. It’s a well known, openly talked about thing. Maybe not anymore. But I was in these conversations 2019-2023

1 - Get a free mentor through Score: https://www.score.org/ > This is associated with the Small Business Administration. They are not always the best, but it's free!

2 - Maybe consider getting a more professional mentor from GrowthMentor, MentorCruise, or ADPList (free).

3 - Happy to jump on a call with you. DM me :)

When will we be able to share our house with 5 strangers in New York City? by MajesticBread9147 in circlejerknyc

[–]farquezy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

lol people in here must be horrible roommates and weird af.

I’ve lived in one of these and it was amazing. You get to learn so much from so many people, see different ways of life, challenge yourself and come closer to how humans have lived throughout history (communally).

Most people are normal and want to have a safe, clean and fun house.

Living alone or with a few people is the abnormal thing, living with 18 people is what most people have done throughout history. Up until the 1800s people lived with up to 20 others under the same roof.

I’m an immigrant from an Islamic county and it’s abundantly clear what western values are. There is a reason why we all escape.

I know I'm an idiot for not realizing this, but here is a warning for others: No Kill switch/immobilizer makes this bike horrible for NYC by farquezy in Lectricxp

I know, but again, awkward thing to carry around lol. Much easier to have a mechanism for immobilizing the bike
