Are they owed it? No of course not. Such a citizenship can be rejected for a number of reasons (national security, criminal background, etc). There is no natural right to citizenship the way there is for speech, personal property, life, etc

That's great. As an American, she can disagree and vote accordingly. By our constitution, no one is owed citizenship. It's a irrevocable courtesy extended based upon following our laws.

Completely irrelevant for accounting and only kind of relevant for PMs (who are usually not super technically competent at what they're working on). Also, this lecture, while correct, is mis-aimed. Please respond to the best version of

Which is fine... The purpose of the United States is not to be easy to become a citizen of but to better the lives of the people living here. No one is owed a visa or citizenship.

Four Indian companies take a large portion of the visas. These companies are using very sketchy practices and should be investigated. If just left to American companies, the entire quota would not even be hit.

At the end of the day, the answer is... specialized hardware. No matter what you do on your local system, you don't have the interconnects necessary. Yes, they have special software, but the software would not work locally. NVIDIA sell

Devanagari has much more phonetic structure than English spelling. The English Latin letter arrangement holds a tenuous phonetic connection to pronunciation half the time, whereas the devanagari usually indicates exactly how you say it.

Nothing to do with that or the IO monad. 'Async' contexts are continuation transformers over generic underlying monads that satisfy certain constraints. Don't get confused between the two.

India is not destined to be screwed, but it will be screwed if it continues to do what it does. You've misidentified the problem though. Everything in India is against the law. This allows Indian government officials to selectively pro

I live in inner NE. I'm two miles from downtown via the broadway bridge, and four miles from the airport via surface streets (about a 10 minute drive. If someone texts me while picking up bags at baggage claim, I will be at the airport

De-industrialization is the right word. We are buoyed almost entirely by intel. Without Intel, the state is essentially cottage / mom-n-pop industries.

Yes. This was part of the deal; that I show up in the office every once in a while. They paid for my flights too, so it was actually cheaper than renting in the bay area, and certainly more convenient (my wife and kids are well settled in P

There's a lot of downtime in that commute. Sitting in an airport. Talking to people. Flying is fun if you're into it. Anyway, a 2 hour commute is normal in the bay area . I used to do the south bay to San Francisco Caltrain daily.

Why? I own a house in Portland. Company closed the Portland office. My family is settled there. It doesn't make sense to move your whole life just for a few days a month in the office . I didn't do it daily. However I did price it

Yes my company (small startup) closed its Portland office during COVID. It was opened for people who didn't want to be in the bay area. Pre COVID it was en vogue for bay area startups to have a PDX office. Then COVID happened and downt

In general you should ignore non competes but you should not divulge previous employers proprietary knowledge. No state will enforce a non compete if it means the person would be unemployed. The judge will laugh you out of the courtroom.
