Just to add for (evolution): GATTACA Argument Darwinism

We have to keep in mind that, e.g. in Japan the fertility rate is 1.4/woman.

The rich people make less children than poor.

Beside, in rich countries fertility rate is dropping, especially in big cities.

Therefore, one way of seen this could be just as palliative.

I totally agree with this statement.

> My job is in sales and I am teaming up with "sales" engineers. The bottom line is that they have the technical knowledge and I just have to manage/prioritise the relation with the Customer.

>>> I am doing the meetings instead of them >>> They don't like to be disturbed while producing, or move from their chair >>> hipchat is the best option for me >>> they are dedicated on different tasks/projects

So, when they are working remotely is fine for me as long as us don't loose the intimacy [common language]

It is only 30 kilowatt for the moment... let see the next upgrade to 15 kw!

This type of laws will not prevent "paper news" to go to bankruptcy.

The only way for a company grow is to innovate, Google News is a tool that could help.

At the end of the day it is a lose lose situation: > readers > newspapers > Google

Yes indeed, there no direct tax benefits.

> But this system is making doing business from Estonia easier > Estonia is very business friendly country - low taxes compare to countries like France

So, it will be much more easier to move your business there and this is good for them.

Many business in France are fiscally in Luxembourg for tax reasons and on my opinion this new Estonia system is like having a second Luxembourg on the French border.

I hope those smart initiatives will help France (and some other heavy tax countries) to reform.

Moreover, reducing paper work is beneficial for any business.
