  • Now might be a good time to clarify that the problem with CEO pay is not the direct cost of the compensation itself. The problem is the perverse incentive structure of market manipulation and tax engineering where the CEO can increase their bonus by destroying value. This is a negative sum game - what the employees and customers lose is many times greater than what the C-Suite and shareholders gain.

    So what do we do about this? We do the only thing we can do, we work on our charisma

    You can’t beat the sales team on that front. Charisma is a key part of their job. They are literally being payed for their ability to convince people to buy things, and this works inside the organization as well as it work on customers.






  • Edit: also, I need gtk because people around me who uses windows aren’t going to use CLI program at all.

    If that’s the reason - maybe you can use TUI instead? In Windows, it’d open a CMD window which your users will be able to use. Not as pretty as actual GUI, but easier for Windows users to use than a CLI.

    Another option is to use one of the numerous Rust-native GUI libraries (like iced or Druid, to name a few). None of them are as big as GTK/QT - but they are easier to get running on Windows.






  • How does the second tenant pay their mortgage? One apartment’s rent should not be enough to cover the mortgage of four (or five - including the one they live in). My guess is that they only payed all the mortgages for these four properties and this is about the mortgage of the apartment they live in.

    The cheat code to a stress-free life is to own lots of real estate to being with.
