At work nobody understands why I use Vim, I'm tired of having to explain myself to my coworkers and hearing all the time "Why don't you just switch to Atom?"

With banks you always go through KYC/AML, this is nothing to do with bitcoin, and everything to do with banks.

That's bullshit. Banks are the ones with the highest friction and fees.

Localbitcoins should allow you to buy BTC other than with a bank account.

Re:Ask HN: Does anyone else hate startups and their culture?

First off, I don't live in the US. Secondly, I'm not anti-startup—pro-bigcorp, both are awful and good in many ways.
My problem with startups is that everyone expects everyone else to be a robot nowadays, so many principles, toxic environments, too much bullshit and I've got enough of it.

Startups are the reason I can't have a stable/steady job because they all require me to work 15 hours a day and also work on weekends, if I don't appeal enough to the get-rich-quick boss, I'm fired.
Seriously, I hate startups and their culture.

OK as I said English isn't my first language. Thanks for pointing out.

> Did you try applying for jobs that specifically mention remote, like those found via https://www.google.com/search?q=remote+jobs ?
Yes.
> Was it ever to easy to find a remote job?
Sometimes, sometimes not. I've been working remotely since 2008 because IT jobs are lacking in my area. Unfortunately, and of late, employers respond with something like:
"Unfortunately we're not looking for remote at this time", or "You have to be in the US for this position".
There are some companies that accept remote, but as you said, they are the exception, not the rule.
> A total side-note: there's no such thing as "average of 17 years of experience" when you're talking about just one person.
Can you elaborate on this? Why is that wrong to say? English is also not my primary language.
I actually have something like ~17 years of programming experience.
Ask HN: Why companies don't want to hire remote employees anymore?
I've been trying to apply to many different startups lately but I can't land on any job, they all require the employee is in the US.Anyone else having this problem?I'm a Rails/React/Node/Java developer with an average of 17 years of programming experience.It's really depressing as there are not many local jobs in my area as well.Any suggestions? Moving is not an option.
