   I'm learning from HR what an incredible amount of overhead it is to hire not only internationally, but in US states where you're not already set up for business. especially if you want to give everyone the same benefits. especially if you want to do things correctly and fairly. especially if you're a non-profit. an absolute nightmare.

     … technology: 🤷

     Here's a game we could play: point me to any law that prevents you to work from somewhere, and I'll point to a tech to work around it. Not sure I could beat any law, but I feel pretty confident.

     @iwein it's not about you the employee being able to work (that obviously can be done). it's about auditors going to your employer and pointing out they're not following every single local tax and employment regulation and requirement for your specific jurisdiction.
