Someone hacked into @GeorgesJanin and created this coin. It's a scam. @pasternak

@Molson_Hart A waffle house tour at 4am.

You could probably run an American safari business where you put rich people from foreign countries in a bulletproof bus and drive through America’s worst neighborhoods, occasionally launching dollar bills and lottery tickets to watch drug addicts fight.

@YossiGoldstein8 France's arms exports have massively increased and it's number 2 in the world after the US

Fun fact: Both the UK and France once cut off arms supplies to Israel. The UK scrapped a tank deal, which pushed Israel to create the Merkava tank—now recognized as one of the world’s best. Similarly, when France stopped selling fighter jets, Israel briefly produced its own jets. Today, it’s ironic: both the UK and France have seen their arms exports shrink—Israel didn’t lose, they did.

@nycsloane @alexkehr Some of the national carriers are state-owned, but the real difference is that Europe has huge low-cost carriers that drive competition - Ryanair, EasyJet, and wizz

@GringoJobs @alexkehr I believe it’s subsidized

the american mind (me) cannot comprehend european airline flight prices can i just book all 190 seats for $3400 and have a private 737 flight?

@hispanicnomad Yeah, Spain is great once you have capital. I could not imagine accumulating wealth here.

European work culture gets romanticized a lot online - 5 weeks vacation - 35 - 40 hour weeks - Long lunches - Work to live not live to work All true. Also: - The average net salary in Spain after tax: €1,800/month - Average rent in Madrid for a one bedroom: €1,200/month - Percentage of that salary left after rent: you do the math The system is designed for people who own property, have stable long term employment, and aren't trying to build anything outside of it If you fit that profile: genuinely excellent quality of life If you're trying to build something, save aggressively, or earn based on output rather than hours: the same system that protects employees will slow you down in ways that are hard to see until you've lost three years to them

Pro tip: never tell the recruiter that you want to work in a US company to improve your English. Ninguna empresa quiere ser tu Open English personal.

@tomosman And the immigration is a direct result of all the US/Israel wars.

Europe has a perfect opportunity to reclaim a lot of its sovereignty and standing on the global stage right now. By staying out of the wars that is trying to be forced on us by the US + Israel and by aggressively deporting people here illegally. We lost a lot of safety through terrible immigration policy but finally I think many countries are waking up. The EU IF it got its act together has a big opportunity to bounce back in a big way.

@hispanicnomad Spain also has a huge administrative burden and you are always filling out some "Modelo".

Spain and Paraguay cater to COMPLETELY different audiences Spain 🇪🇸 has world-class infrastructure, stunning cities, and a quality of life most countries can only dream about But the tax burden on self-employed people is brutal. As an autónomo you pay social security before you make a single euro. The system was built for employees and it shows. And the average salary doesn't afford you anything at all Paraguay 🇵🇾 has almost none of that infrastructure. Roads are rough. Bureaucracy is its own adventure But if you earn money outside Paraguay? The government genuinely does not care. Territorial tax. No questions about your foreign income. An accountant who texts you back And you can have a GREAT quality of life for very little That's the thing: - Spain is paradise if you have a remote job or work for the government - Paraguay is paradise if you have a business Knowing which one you are changes everything

I always wonder about the build in public types and people who share revenue on this site....as they hang out casually in Mexico or Colombia. I guess kidnappers don't check X for now.

@devahaz @pitdesi @Noahpinion @neerajadeshp I think it's really just Nouvelle Cuisine that got adapted to local US regional dishes and produce. Almost all "modern" styles of cuisine derive from Nouvelle Cuisine.

@pitdesi @Noahpinion @neerajadeshp When I think New American I think a combo of Alice Waters inspired farm to table and a lot of “elevated” whole animal type grill and live fire cooking, and yeah I guess the upscale gastropub/comfort food too

The most underrated kind of cuisine is actually New American. In the 2010s, "American" restaurants upped their game like crazy -- much like Japanese restaurants did.

@dagorenouf Move to Mexico. Same time zone, much cheaper, very low tax via RESICO. Mexico City would be the best bet for a European.

❌ I dont want to stay in France because of huge taxes and lack of hustle energy. ❌ I can’t move to Asia because I need overlap with US time zone for my sales job. ❌ I’m scared to move to US while I build a family because healthcare and education is shit 😤

@marielexoteria @MyLatinLife TN status - Wikipedia share.google/k3J2tI2lW7vhym…

@GringoJobs @MyLatinLife What does TN mean?

Would you rather a Mexican or Brazilian passport?

Gaps on your resume make the reader work. That's the whole problem. A recruiter looks at your CV and sees you worked at Company A until March 2022, then started at Company B in November 2022. Now they have to figure out what happened in those eight months. Did you get fired? Were you job hunting that whole time? Traveling? Sick? Burned out? Taking care of someone? They don't know. And they won't ask yet, because they're still deciding whether to call you at all. Sometimes there isn't even a real gap. You left in late March, started in early April, but you wrote "2022" on one line and "2022" on the next and now it looks like there could be months missing ***A resume isn't a legal document. It's a sales document. And the first rule of selling is: don't make the buyer do the work.*** When someone reads a clean resume, no gaps, clear timeline, everything makes sense on the first pass, something happens. They relax. When someone reads a messy resume, they tense up. They start building a list of questions. Questions are not good. Questions mean doubt. So either don't have gaps, or **explain them right there** on the CV. One line is enough. "Career break: relocated to Switzerland" or "Sabbatical: completed AWS certification." --> You're removing a reason for them to hesitate. And finally: If they have a good feeling about you, they will offer you more money.

@EstebanCervi Una biblioteca libre y funcional en Madrid. Un total "narrative violation"

Esto es NORMAL en Europa amigos. No la basura que te vende Musk.

@iwangulenko I was thinking more of a consulting setup. Not a platform. I'm sure SaaS is hard

@GringoJobs Na , selling saas harder than u think

10 years of Gulenko.com Recruitment: We placed hundreds of talents into tech jobs in the Zurich region. In 2015, I landed my first traditional job in Switzerland as a Python engineer at Polynorm—a company that would later become one of my recruitment clients. I went to every tech conference, meetup, and event in Zurich for months until I found a client. I walked into 20-200-person meetups and asked "Would you pay me if I found you a senior software developer?" I did my first placement after getting my SECO recruitment license. And that license almost didn't happen. They initially told me I couldn't have it because I had no experience in recruitment or HR. But then they looked at my profile, saw I was a software developer, and decided to make an exception. That technical background has been my edge ever since. For the first two years, I didn't even have a homepage. I just made a couple of commissions here and there through relationships and reputation. The "system" was: emails, emails, emails, phone calls, personal meetings, emails, phone calls. By 2017, the side project had proven itself. I went full-time. In 2018, I tried to scale by bringing on freelance recruiters. It didn't work. The quality standard I demanded for candidate profiles and notes—especially the interview notes—didn't match what I wanted; obsession with detail seems to be inborn, either people have it, or not. By late 2019, I wanted to shut the company down. Our applicant tracking system was still just email—too many messages, too many pings, too many questions. The money was good, but the stress was unbearable. Instead of quitting, I improved the system: I adopted tools like Superhuman to get email under control and started hiring seriously. My first key hire was a remote sourcer who barely spoke English but was incredibly good at writing to people on LinkedIn. In 2021, after looking at dozens of ATSs and CRMs, I decided to do something dumb: develop my own applicant tracking system that integrated our historical email-based workflow. It worked. Finally, we had even better processes. For nearly ten years, we averaged 2–5 candidate submissions per week. Solid, steady work, but slow. Last week, in the first weeks of January 2026, we did 55 candidate submissions IN ONE WEEK. This result came from tools I built with AI, specifically for our workflow. The administrative work time from initial candidate call to complete dossier submitted to client is now minutes, before, it was days. Each candidate submission includes: Structured interview notes (tech stack/skills focus, soft skill impressions, motivation, salary expectations, reason to change jobs, elaboration on any oddities). I challenge any recruitment agency to match a turnaround time of minutes for that document package. Who else is 10 years on the market and saw a major productivity improvement in the last weeks?

@victorianoi Madrid is a tax haven if you already have money, not if you need to make it

If you earn €100K a year in gross salary, where do you think you end up taking home the least net pay after taxes among these places: China, Norway, the United States, or Madrid, Spain? Looking at the numbers, it feels pretty bold to claim that Spain still needs higher income taxes and that Madrid is some kind of tax haven. Even if most of us support a strong welfare state, there comes a point where, compared with other countries, the burden starts to look excessive? Very cool project to compare taxes by @benjaminakar 👉 howmuch.tax/compare?countr…

@TheEdPill Latin America solves this.

Living abroad is great. Temporarily. Eventually? You must return home. Or at least to your continent. The European man belongs in Europe. The Asian man belongs in Asia. The African man belongs in Africa. It’s unnatural to live elsewhere. You are an outsider. An alien. An invader. Go home.

@fortelabs First to board on any flight. That will get the middle class to reproduce.

I strongly believe that every couple who has 3+ children, thus pushing the replacement rate higher, should get a golden pass that gives them all sorts of perks They get to go to the head of any line, receive tax breaks (since they're creating future taxpayers), discounts on stuff, special privileges in any public space, etc. This would also incentivize ppl to have more kids in the first place
