I wonder how many goods get abandoned at port because importers cannot or do not want to pay the tariffs, and if this clogs up our ports.

If trade barriers come down overseas, American SMB's need a crash course in exporting. It's a micro story as much as a macro one.

I don't recommend using @indeed for recruiting in Asia. We posted in multiple markets, paid a lot in fees, and didn't get a single resume from our field. It works well in the US. Too bad it isn't as effective elsewhere.

I'd appreciate any leads on research or new therapies for mengioma grade 3 for a friend. Also, @Biotech2k1 , thanks for your posts.

The industry is treating shipments to the US as deadhead loads. Fix that and shipping from Asia and Europe everywhere gets cheaper...a win/win that's good for their exports too. 2/2

With ocean container prices to the US trending 5x outbound prices from the US, every US trading partner should want to immediately drop all tariffs on US origin goods. 1/2

So far $ETH is the easiest, using the Web3 library, but gas fees are too high to send small amounts to test. API calls to etherscan are free. $ALGO has good docs & reasonable gas but the Docker connection didn't work for me.

If you worked in int'l business and dealt with LC's, ABG's & PBG's, forex fees, T/T (ABA, SWIFT, IBAN), KYC for overseas branches you'd never question the value of smart contracts, modest fees, speed & ease of use. $BTC $ETH. International banking is a relic from another era.

Is there an equivalent to the Performance Bank Guarantee/Standby Letter of Credit that uses a smart contract and a stable coin? #ETH #Ethereum #smartcontracts #USDC

I volunteer with my wife at a vaccine clinic after work. We are busy now, but not like we were. The US should begin helping other countries, starting with #India.

Extremely stupid & cruel move by an extremely stupid & cruel administration. Not only will this upend the lives and careers of tens of thousands of students and tech workers, it will also deal a considerable blow to America's competitiveness and long-term prosperity. A disaster.
Breaking News: President Trump will sign an executive order suspending foreign work visas, barring hundreds of thousands of people from coming to work in the U.S. The move includes the H-1B program for high-skilled workers and several other categories.

Safe harbor should be changed in 2020. Normally businesses like mine pay 110% of last year's quarterly to avoid penalty. 110% of 2x Federal + state estimated taxes due in a lump sum on July 15 is a big ask. #Accounting #safeharbor #taxes
