Not specifically the part of ONLY waiting 1-2 years outside the US, but the whole thing. I'm just highlighting that doing H1B, trying to get GC, then citizenship alone is a pretty bad process already, adding 1-2 years on top of that i

For the last step, if what you truly want is just coming to the US, please don't do it for your own sanity. Waiting 1-2 years working outside the US and then come to the US on H1B/L1 is something potentially quite stressful (not t

Any chance you can do a quick cons review too? Specifically comparing to the weakness of Angular 1 like bloated complexities, issue with custom directives or scope life-cycle.

One of the arguments for evolution involves some very non-trivial calculation on probability of whether it could result in the world we're in right now (not the maths itself, but the sequence of reasoning). It has been a while since I

Tell them that documenting will allow better history be recorded. Then you can redirect the argument of "is history as a subject any useful" to external endpoint.

You can held them accountable the same way you held your junior developer accountable: it was a mistake, and they definitely could have done a lot better. Any blame wouldn't be unjustified. But what's the point and to what end?

Presenter has "present" in it. Something that said person would be unlikely to receive as well, and would be sad about it. Not to mention it might be triggering for time-traveling people or time-lord wizard.

Weasel words. What exactly is "safe" and "friendly"? What exactly does an "unsafe" project look like in the context? "Friendly" is practically entirely subjective. And frankly, I can make an argument

To be fair, 0.9999... = 1 is not quite basic. You need to know things like infinitesimals, the distinction between value and representation of numbers etc.

I want to add that with the H1b lottery being around 20-30% for the past couple of years, being able to hire 8 H1Bs mean that they applied for ~30-40 people. I definitely would lean toward the other comments here that the situation is extre

That rationale is suspiciously close to "FB should just turned over all and any data of everyone to the US government". In certain cases with regard to the government, inconvenience is a feature, not a bug.
