So true. As an Irishman living in Canada, it does not surprise me in the least when I bump into a fellow Irishman and we know some of the same people.

My Canadian friends always think this is strange.

Ask HN: Remote workers. Do you use/need a portable monitor?

I have been working remotely for a couple of months now. I have worked from my (Irish) home office so far, using 2 external monitors with my MacBook Pro.I am going to Ecuador in March and want to keep working, but I don't want to loose productivity. I feel going back to one monitor will really slow me down. Does anyone here use portable monitors while working on the road and have any...

I graduated last year and got offered 34k to work in one of IBM's offices outside Dublin.

I ended up moving to Canada where I earn the equivalent of 36k euro working in a startup. I would say that living expenses are comparable.
