Thought it would be fun to talk to the guy who has made $220k in 5 days

Great shipping from Jonathan - $9k so far lol

Yeah, this sucks. What are we supposed to do?

I'd be interested if people are going to wear their headphones less often or just say "screw it, everything has plastic now"

Nice to see them catch up with Edinburgh.

hope this is useful for people

There's a grain of truth to this but I won't take any lessons on social mobility from the media.

In the UK, at least, most are privately educated, did unpaid internships and a lot are sons or daughters of other journalists.

I'd take entrepreneurship over getting a job in the media any day.

Thanks to everyone at HN who supported this project when I launched it in the summer of 2019. It was top of the website for a good 24hrs.

But time to move on to new things

Hope you enjoy B2B more! Hows Lorelight going so far?

Looks useful - thanks for making this. It's good you can add notes for blocking people too.

One of the biggest problems is the places where people speak Gaelic are now full of Airbnbs/second homes.

A blast from the past!

I read the book and did some actual barefoot running (got a lot of weird looks) and a lot of friends bought the shoes.

Now I think about it, I’ve not seen anyone in Vibrams for years

Excellent article. I wish more old people would pick up weights. What often keeps me going to the gym is the knowledge I want to be strong when I'm old.

Nicely done! I'll add this to my newsletter - I wouldn't be surprised if you got some press for this.

That's a fookin crazy exit!

Always like seeing these stories. Will mention it in my High Signal newsletter.

Good read - I use ChatGPT almost every day but a lot of my friends only tried it when it came out, weren't impressed and haven't been back since. I don't know any non-tech friends who pay for it.

I don't really get how you can have a pardon when someone hasn't been prosecuted yet. Is there any chance this will be challenged in future?

I'd remove the emojis as it makes it looks unserious.

"Starter (Just Kidding)" - likewise, I don't know what you mean by this.

hope that helps

Everyone has been in denial - this was always the most likely outcome.

I don't think it's wise to assume everyone is going to be perfect at their job. Yes, that bike line sucks. But haven't you ever made a mistake at your job? Expecting everything to work perfectly in life is a recipe for misery.

thanks for building this Mubs!

Nice to see. Where Eton leads, others will follow.

We Work Remotely has a US-only filter.

I think there’s always a tension between people who want remote jobs to be anywhere in the world and remote to be within the US. A lot of job board owners are keen on the former.

Does the other person need a proton account to use it as well?

Nicely done! Glad you found a way to monetize it (I wasn't sure how you would from looking at it earlier on)

Have you ever met anyone else on other boats who works online too?

Nice idea for something without screens

I like simple analytics and proton mail

Maybe try airtable instead of Google sheets

Sounds an interesting guy but it's one of these torturously long articles that won't just get to the point

Thanks for sharing my article! I figured that not everyone had heard of Indiehackers etc and maybe even experienced founders haven’t seen the DHH speech at YC?

The UK is pretty good - quick and easy to set up a company or you can be a 'sole trader' which basically means you have simplified accounting but you don't have any limited liability if someone sues you etc

Also, an overlooked benefit - we have public healthcare so you don't have to worry about keeping a job in order to get health insurance. It's kinda overlooked point but it's weird that America has this system which incentivises you to have a job in case you get ill.

Also, everything is in English. I personally woulnd't want to file my accounts somewhere that I need to hire someone to translate the bank letters/contracts etc.
