That's interesting. I would have thought that any work, incidental or not, would be a violation of the visa. I've heard of people being harassed for e.g. doing work on their vacation property (e.g. Canadians owning US property) wh

It varies. In recent years (last decade or so) YVR has been pretty good. Historically there were ups and downs. I doubt a few immigration officers with handguns (can't say for sure they even carry them or carry them out of the airport)

I'm implying you are painting the wrong picture about Lebanon. This is a story of a state which was established as a safe haven for Christians being taken over by force and ethnic cleansing of Christians and Jews. I'm not saying t

Vanguard generally owns stocks in their funds on behalf of people. Those people can chose to e.g. vote their share and if the business is sold (e.g.) will get their share. This is still ownership. I'm not sure why the capital gains arg

But the investors in aggregate have the rights. If you bought a stock that pays dividend then for sure you get dividends.

Much easier as in otherwise they'll suffer material and bodily harm? Look at what the Syrians are doing to the Alawites now and then tell me again how Israel should just let those same people have the power in this balance.

My beef with the term 'Jewish policies', if it wasn't clear, was the mix of opinions about the Jewish people, Israel, and certain political powers within Israel. To me when people just mix "Jewish" and "Israel&

I don't think this is completely true. Other than some small portion of companies with weird ownership structure (which the market should have punished but doesn't always) stock ownership is ownership of the business. There's

Don't you want the overheat protection at the end of a long drive? [edit: or is this just for the cabin temperature?] I've also noticed a bit of drain when camping. It doesn't help that you often open/close the doors&#x2

I've done road trips on my SR+ model 3 and it hasn't been a big problem. What is a problem is if you're going somewhere that has no chargers (or no superchargers). If you have a big trip then you can charge to 100% if you nee

It'd have to be really steep. Regenerative braking on a model 3 is pretty aggressive. You don't even use the brakes in normal driving. If you're starting off too cold that can be an issue though. I've driven in big mount

It is still to reduce cost. Hiring would often be in cheaper geographies. The reason to reduce cost is not to e.g. save a business from collapsing but it is to improve the financial results with the hope of making the stock price go up.

Don't let anecdotes shape your perception of reality. I have a feeling you're not familiar enough with the details. Parent is correct. 20% of Israel's citizens are Arabs who generally enjoy equal rights. They are members of K

Maybe we need a client side rather than server side recommendation system. I.e. one that's under our control.

Yeah. They bug me. Especially as my prescription got stronger over the years. I have computer glasses and I just got a new prescription. I often find myself taking them off and getting closer to the monitor. I'm gonna look into the len

yep. 1d is a rule of thumb. My optometrist is cool with me bringing my laptop and measuring at the distance I feel is best for me.

by YZF 2y ago
That's odd. Most optometrists I've seen over my life (and specifically here in Canada, BC) will keep trying to adjust and ask you if it's sharper or not before they settle on the numbers. They'll go higher or lower power

I like the idea. I used to be a military air traffic controller (for about 3 years) and have seen a few cases of issues between ground traffic, either vehicles, or helicopters or other airplanes and airplanes landing or taking off. We had a

In Canada it's pretty much like this. If you graduate from a Canadian university you can get a work permit and a path to permanent residence and citizenship. Lots of software engineers around here that took that route.

I'm pretty sure the CEO of AWS can't do any engineering work anywhere in AWS. He's an MBA and an Industrial Engineer (whatever that is). He used to be a product manager.

Everyone spies on everyone but when an American businessman is arrested the UK or when a Spanish businessman is arrested in Australia, something that I'll bet you has happened many times, generally speaking the US will not grab British

I am not an American. So that's one off your combo. I was also not silent or defensive of the specific action of arresting her. I thought that was a mistake by Canada and said so at the time. I still think so. I'm not denying anyt

Here's the sequence: >> Why does the US still allow Chinese nationals to study at its universities and work at its companies? Seems like a big risk that cutting edge research and trade secrets will go to America’s main adversary.

As the other reply said this is literally nothing. The Canadian maple syrup cartel. I'm literally laughing out loud. Common knowledge in what circles? Most trade between the US and Canada is free. There is a free trade agreement. Yes.

I know what overseas means and I realize Microsoft has teams all over the globe. But Microsoft is a US company and by working there as a researcher you are trained and have access to know-how that is technically American in origin. The inte
