    “I DIDN’T LEAVE AMERICA. AMERICA LEFT ME.”

    Any country that wants to demonize white males, is welcome to. I’m a libertarian: You’re welcome to do what you want, just not welcome to do what you want with me.

    I don’t want to live in a country where I’m preyed upon by the state, and hold second class legal status because of my race and gender. Where my heritage is disowned and discredited. And where I’m demonized in exchange for my entrepreneurship.

    Thanks.

    Our enemy: The State. Democracy is the slow road to totalitarianism.

    Not sure I have the time in January to put forth a paper. But the conference looks like an opportunity for propertarianism.

    THE DEPRESSING DARK SEASON

    A lot of us are affected by the winter darkness. Usually it get to me about this time of year and I need a little sunshine.

    I’ve been taking high doses of Vitamin D and it really helps. And this year is better than any other year I can remember because of it.

    But I wonder, how does everyone else cope with it?

    UNBELIEVABLE DEV COST

    You know, in Seattle, assuming I could get developers this good to work on this product, the burdened cost would be something on the order of 100 an hour. Here it’s 25.

    NO MATTER WHAT RINGTONE YOU USE

    You probably sound like a d_____g to somebody.

    (This guy behind me has the Carpenters ‘killing me softly’, and gets a call every two minutes. And every time it goes off I want to throw my coffee at him.)

    UKRAINE IS THE BEST THING TO HAPPEN TO ME IN MY ADULT LIFE

    if there is a heaven. It looks like Ukraine.

    These are the most wonderful people on earth.

    White people in their natural habitat. With a government that has abandoned them.

    It’s beautiful.

    FASHION: LONG LEATHER COATS

    In the states, wearing a long leather coat makes you a member of the lower classes.

    And if you aren’t at least six-two and have a thirty eight inch chest, they make you look like a cow.

    But these really tall skinny Slavic men can pull It off without looking like dorks.

    Lots of good looking (straight) men in Kiev. And downtown shops cater to them.

    So far I’m spending money almost exclusively with Karl Lagerfeld. Which I wouldn’t normally wear in the states. But is perfect here.

    BUDGET. SIGH.

    Ok. Now that we have the scope done, and the plumbing done. I have to do a budget. Which means a project plan, estimates and comprises. No

    one likes compromises.

    The team is quite good. Exceptional. But it will be work keeping their confidence. The scope of work is not something they are comfortable with.

    They want to simplify things for themselves not the user. And they seem afraid of some of the complex features because multi site solutions are unfamiliar to them.

    So it is cheaper to develop software here. And the talent is exceptional. Especially per dollar. But you have to work hard to incrementally build their confidence.

    This isn’t Seattle or SF. The talent doesn’t have poduct experience. And they are timid. And like all of us, when exposed to the unfamiliar they resort to the familiar.

    I love this business.

    I love engineers.

    🙂

    THE OMLY TIME YOU SEE THIS MANY BEAUTIFUL WOMEN IN SEATTLE…

    … is when a group of visiting Russian women go slumming in Bellevue.

    And here it’s just an average day in an average restaurant.

    I was in that Asian place in Bellevue Square in September and about half a dozen pretty average Russian women showed up and the men came out of the woodwork like cockroaches.

    Rubes. :).

    It was demeaning.

    For the men I mean. 🙂
