Sai King has left Twitter, so he has.

If you have some skill that they are short on. That is the main reason. In that way you aren’t just some filthy American, your a skilled worker.

Get a job that will help you immigrate. My company hired a third party to handle most of my paper work. I still had to get apostille for everything, but then they did most of the visa work. They also paid for relocation.

The language thing can be isolating but it also drives you to learn.

I’m so baffled by this take. “Create a terraform module that implements two S3 buckets with cross-region bidirectional replication. Include standard module files like linting rules and enable precommit.” Could I write that? Yes. But does this provide an outstanding stub to start from? Also yes.

Wanna see all your countrymen die of cured diseases that end in “ids”?

And posts about how everything related to Apple is bad and that all AI is really just auto correct.

Gaddammit! That’s gonna be in my head again for 5 more years. I had forgotten about it. I HAD FORGOTTEN!
