jpkeisala··on Too Many Workers Are Trapped by Non-Competes
In my first job (junior developer in end of nineties) I had NDA that prevented me to work on software industry for 2 years if I leave the company. I left to competitor but I was worried if they sue me. They never did, so then I learned it is just a scaring tactic's. Also, a lawyer told me later that not only it is illegal they also would need to fully compensate the period I am in quarantine.

jpkeisala··on Ask HN: Cheap places to live with a good intellectual atmosphere?
I cannot think better place in Europe than Barcelona to live. I used to live there for 5 years. Now I am living in Copenhagen. In Barcelona weather is perfect, great food and culture. Good connections everywhere. Cosmopolitan. However, recent nationalism movement on the region puts toll on all this.
jpkeisala··on Ask HN: Cheap places to live with a good intellectual atmosphere?
I have visited Cluj few times and stayed in hotel. Office life is international but the moment you step out the street it's Eastern Europe in terms of difficult to navigate in English. But everyone is nice. I assume living there would require learning the language. Local food is not interesting, if you value food. Look into Mediterranean direction. The city is nice but it is not cosmopolitan, but I think it might be moving that direction.
