   Isn't tsmc building fabs in Arizona and Japan? I don't think China will invade Taiwan but what do I know. Is it really worth the risk of being cut off from international trade and banking the way Russia has been? If China invades

   H1bs are a lottery. There's no attempt to filter by quality, except that someone must want to employ/sponsor the candidate. The US does give ability based visas such as O1 but it's pretty difficult to prove/judge ability

    yes but in that case the Fed rode to the rescue and delivered the greatest bull market in US history. There's absolutely no way the next decade looks like the last so this is a poor comparison. As far as rebalancing --- you may have no

    I don't know why you're so confident. All of these things can contribute to inflation.

    I've had this same thought, but everyone seems to be sitting in cash? No one wants to invest unless everyone else invests. Seems the emperor is suddenly naked.

    Amazon has traded sideways for a year and a half. F, N are cratering, Amzn is sideways, Aapl is still way up yoy (seems vulnerable this earnings season though), MSFT has been good historically but worse this year and seems vulnerable. Googl

    there shouldn't be a low withholding on RSUs if your settings are correct, e.g. "I expect to make more than 400k this year". it shouldn't matter if stocks drop after vest since the withholding is taken out of the RSU ves

    By this definition, where either sitting or exercising or breathing is demanding, what is not demanding? I think unhealthy or uncomfortable would have been a better choice of words.

    Uber was undeniably a lot cheaper than a taxi for me in 2013. I don't use Uber much any more but I assume the same is true. They were able to undercut not just due to shafting the drivers but also all the VC money pouring in. The cost
