I think that both you and the grandparent comment are correct at the same time. It feels like there is a strong dichotomy between how H1B visa is treated across different realms of tech. I have been working in big tech…
Unless he has an actual plan for effective global enforcement of his proposed policy, this is all just posturing at best, and a transfer of power to adversarial foreign states (that have no such moral qualms and worries…

Thanks for bringing this up, I actually had no idea it was simply disabled, and assumed it was simply not included at all (for whichever miniscule savings it would bring). Your explanation makes more sense, because it…
I heard from friends that the physical Suica card tends to be difficult to obtain these days at times, but digital one isn't difficult at all. Took me roughly a minute to create one within Apple Wallet ahead of my trip,…
Maybe I am just plainly wrong or encountered some specific stations, but it does not feel true from my experience. During my last visit to London (in 2025), it felt noticeably slower than even NYC subway tap-to-pay.…
Just to clarify, what do you mean by "without revealing my personal phone number"? Did you use a voip number (e.g., Google Voice/Twilio/etc.) instead? Or somehow no number at all? Or a secondary (real) phone number, and…
They basically embed company names directly into team names. Here is a couple of examples: Fukuoka Softbank Hawks and Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters.

Good for you, and I fully respect other people making choices like that. I don't believe that you should be forced into a situation that makes you use waymo despite your wishes, and I believe that you should be able to…

Imo it would be more accurate to say that topic experts overestimate how much the average person knows about it.
holy, that's quite a lot. Even the strongest energy drink I've ever seen sold retail in the US had "only" 300mg of caffeine. And it came with plenty of signage on the packaging, indicating very prominently how high the…
Did you have those jagerbombs in Belgium to begin with or while on the way to Belgium?
Fair point, but yeah, it is still quite a crazy amount, esp in terms of alcohol, even for someone like me. And I am saying this as someone with very strong alcohol tolerance, not as a (likely) smaller 18 year old woman…
I am with you here, especially given that the examples listed in the article were basically: * Some young man downed 6 beers and "several" energy drinks, then dove into a lake, and subsequently died. His mother said…

I am of the same opinion. Just doing the napkin math on it, it doesn't come out to be a crazy number, and the bang per buck (in terms of how much it benefits the students) was great. Another similar event that my school…
If you are hesitant to mention it in the comments, please consider at least putting it in your profile bio. This sounds like a genuinely useful tool that I would personally want to use myself.
