You've just described the entire business model of every Silicon Valley VC firm, not just YC.


There's one very important problem with this approach: this blocks people from accessing your site who are doing so from the EU, whereas the GDPR applies to EU citizens, wherever they access the Internet from.

In other words, an EU citizen residing in and accessing the Internet from the US has just as much right to invoke the GDPR with these sites as an EU citizen residing in and accessing the Internet from the EU. Blocking people accessing your site from the EU does not allow your site to not respond to such requests.


Do EU laws still apply when a person has physically left EU jurisdiction? I doubt it. After all, every egg sold in the US would be in violation of EU food safety laws (and vice versa).


It depends on the law. In the case of the GDPR, it does apply despite the person not being physically in the EU.


This is a really useful article. What I really want is Java-minus-Oracle, and it sounded from some of the chatter around Kotlin like it might be that, but it seems what I really want is Groovy.


What a missed opportunity, not to title this article "In Search of Lost Primes".

It's not coincidental; I believe the 'sole application' the author talks about was in fact an online game.


Netflix explicitly have a policy of trying to pay the best in the industry, as I was told when I interviewed there. Turns out it works!


Recognizing both expenses and revenue over time is part of generally accepted accounting practices (GAAP).

Intuitionistically, it makes total sense that you get a clearer picture of the true state of the finances of Netflix as a going concern if they recognize the costs of a show on their balance sheet over five years when they expect subscribers to still be watching it for the first (or second, or third) time several years on.


The hed is a little misleading---what is meant by happiness in the article itself is that Netflix employees more likely feel they're compensated fairly and aren't looking for other jobs.

That is, however, really nice confirmation that Netflix does in fact live what I was told when I interviewed there, that Netflix prides itself on offering the best comp package in industry. (They followed that by casually offering to more than triple my salary, so I had some inkling they weren't just making that up, but it's easy to write off one data point in a high-demand field as an anomaly.)

I'm most impressed that Amazon is doing as well as it is in those rankings, given how much shit they've gotten in the press over the last few years.
