What Estonia's e-residency actually means.

Let's assume you have a startup and you want it to be registered in Estonia, paying taxes and using the Estonian banks for financial purposes.

1. With e-Residency you can't enter Estonia, you need a separate business or travel visa [1]

2. At present, it’s still necessary to travel to Estonia in order to apply in person for an Estonian business bank account. [2]

3. Good, fancy and catchy name "e-Residency" is actually an infinite loop of bureaucracy. You can't remotely open a bank account, you need to travel personally to Estonia, and you have a chance that banks will approve your application. But you can't enter Estonia with this "e-Residency" for this to happen.

And this is just a little tip of the iceberg, there are a lot of articles about real experience of e-residents of how unfriendly for "e-residents" the banks in Estonia are. And without a bank you can't make your startup work.

Today it's just better with the same level of bureaucracy to open a company in other, more startup-friendly countries that grant a residency and have decent, more digital-friendly banks.

I hope something will change in near future, the main idea of e-residency is actually really amazing.

What happens when i press play?

It checks DRM settings in my browser and gets me lowest quality because my browser is open source. That is what happens.

I hope so too. Dropbox is the best app for syncing out there.

Removing videos from youtube of explosions.

Bullshit! the facts state exactly opposite.

What about independent researches and tests that all state obvious facts - battery is not that bad, but the overall internal construction was flawed the battery was positioned close to high-heating elements which caused the overheating the battery and blasts. Pathetic false statements from Samsung, but nothing new. Who can trust this crooked company after such bs explanations...

Seriously? ://

So why i can't install Ubuntu on my Lenovo laptop?

i'm glad that i don't play Pokemon anymore, because it's turning off everytime i've played it after 15 minutes or so.

My Samsung Galaxy S7 heats up aswell while charging and using phone.

It's not okay too... I fear that it will blow up someday.

Already thinking about it.

Yeah, it's called Procedural programming.

Oh,that's really true, but we can just ask random people questions what do they think about EU.

I think that majority pro-Brexit answers about EU would be: Illegal immigrants, giving money to Poland and no money for ‎NHS.

Dropped Oracle, using MySQL. Why not use PostgreSQL instead?

There is an error in script.

seed = 'tweer' obj = generate_spaceship(seed)

Python can't redefine functions as variables. Seed is a function.

I have a paranoia clicking a link to nytimes because of tons of ads in the first place.

Your comment directs me to Google which directs me to The Pirate Bay which directs me to Host that contains illegal material.
