Australia is introducing new legislation around the "right to disconnect". This doesn’t prevent employees from putting in additional hours, but it ensures they have the right to disconnect from ‘unreasonable contact’ outside of designated working hours.

I think the new rules are pretty fair, but it turns out it's a bit of a spicy topic in our startup ecosystem. I thought the engineers in this community would appreciate my response to some of these Musk wannabes.

Founder of cryptotaxcalculator.io here. First of all I agree the proposed rules aren’t particularly well thought out. The thing is, the 1099 forms that the IRS gets from existing brokers don’t make any sense because as soon as you move funds between exchanges the broker can no longer accurately track the cost basis. Pre-crypto you generally wouldn’t have this problem. From a tax compliance perspective it is an absolute nightmare, and I am sure this is just an ill thought out attempt at trying to make their lives easier. Probably not the best way to go about it though. There is a lot to solve in this space.

I am the founder of CryptoTaxCalculator.io and I am not sure where the idea of non traceability on DEXs comes from. Aggregating the transaction history is absolutely possible, all we need is the public wallet address. The real black box is around certain international exchanges that don’t keep appropriate transaction records.

Is there anyway to port this into emacs?

As a counterpoint, YFI literally buys back it's token from fees earned from users using their automated yield farming strategy. There are plenty of duds around, but that doesn't make everything a dud.

Spin sales is probably the best book I have read on complex sales cycle. Terrible name though.

Very accessible charts showing why flattening the curve is so important. Thought it would be good to share among those who are not the most data savvy.
