Blame the FDA on that one. The FDA's policy for the last couple of decades is that mixtures of mirror images will not get FDA approval unless there is a strong rationale for it. Racemic mixture of ketamine was approved decades ago. If

As a former chemist, what's old is new again! It's basically high through put screening plus an AI engine to map out the "variable space". Back in 1990 when robotics became more reliable we did the same thing. The only

How is this any different than it's ever been? Not making life choices because you're worried they'll turn out bad is a terrible way to approach life.

Flying on a plane is in no way similar to a public ticketed event. It takes about 30 second of logical thinking to realize that's not true.

I stand corrected. But suffice to say it’s not an appropriate input when you lose airspeed at 35,000 ft. I read the Admiral Cloudberg article again and saw that it was procedure for other scenarios as well. It seem like the normal mode (pr

Providing housing is exactly how the word is defined - giving something - in this case a place to live. Go and ask all the landlords in Toronto how the finances are working out. Tons of landlords were cash flow negative against fully loaded

While true, pilots aren’t trained to just “respond to the alarm” they are trained to fly the plane. Once there were multiple alarms that made no sense at all (petty early in the event), the pilots should have ignored them as per the checkli

If you end up in “jail” for leaving the country on a green card then clearly you made a mistake. The process is very straightforward - without advanced parole or a valid visa you can’t come back in. Or if you’ve violated immigration or crim

If you read the actual policy (it’s on the ISCIS website), it specifically says dual-intent visa are appropriate for AOS in the US. This is a pretty broad swath of immigrants - H visa (worker and family), L1 (corporate transfer and family)

I’d encourage you to read the policy before you get too upset. The policy specifically calls out immigration violations as the problem. It doesn’t seem crazy to me to restrict the benefit of AOS in the US to people who have NOT committed i

I don’t see this as that significant of a change. The way I read the new policy is that it will be applied to people who have violated immigration law in some way. An alien’s failure to comply with the conditions of their nonimmigrant admi

No, but it would just be nice to be specific in your claims and not make blanket claims which clearly aren’t true. As for Zimbabwe, nobody forced them to ally with the USSR and China. That was their decision. As was their agreement with t

Right. But logically it makes sense - unless you have a valid visa you’re not allowed to stay. You could go the fiancé visa route and stay in status while waiting for the green card. I think what this policy is trying to avoid is the blank

Sure but it’s not a direct one for one. It like me buying a laptop and saying I pay for the electricity in the factory in China. While it’s true the money helps pay for it, it’s not a pss through expense.

This is an internet meme. Nobody really does this. In order to pay zero taxes you’d need to know you’re about to die. Until then your debt would be growing faster than your wealth.

Why wouldn’t your spouse just stay on the student visa? From what I gather it’s purely the processing that is overseas. Stay on whatever visa you’re on -> apply for consular processing -> travel for interview -> enter on green car

The heat impact was detectable up to a third of a mile, or about five city blocks, distant from the perimeter of datacenters. A 1 degree Fahrenhiet (0.6C) for 1/3 of a mile or 500m? Pretty minimal impact if you ask me. And it would

You’re mistaking a few percentage of GDP growth via AI investment as “the US economy is based entirely on AI” AI could disappear and we would have gone from 2% in Q1 to some fraction of 1%. The sky would certainly not fall.

But that’s exactly what happens when someone buys a Hummer with an auto loan? You put 10% down (say $10,000) and the bank lends you $90,000 based on the lien they have on the hummer. No different than a leveraged buyout - PE firm buys a co

If you’re capable of doing basic math in your head you should be able to handle it. Even if you do a rough conversion - subtract 30 and divide in half you’re close enough.

I think the big difference is rule of law. When the US does it, you can appeal with an independent court. When China does it those options don’t exist.
