CrasVestibulum

A very trivial thing (having used both PostgreSQL and MySQL in production for many years) , I find Mysql's EXPLAIN query much easier to grok than the postgresql's query plan.
Doing gods work! Kudos to whoever at Autodesk on open sourcing this.

well said! The argument between various schools of philosophy (which includes Materialists / Realists) is age old. We need to revisit / refresh each point of views so we deepen the understanding of 'our' nature. I would suggest a reading of Vedanta school of philosophy as a counter point to Materialism.

quoting the author "Using electrons, protons, and neutrons, it is possible to build: ... a conscious mind; "

are 'you' just a collection of electrons, protons and neutrons ?

I fondly hope for a reverse wealth drain from UK to India at the same scale or more.
Glad you made the move. Thank you for the info, will explore more.

I have changed jobs about 5 times, each time the new employer had to redo the I-140 (retaining the priority date from the first application).

The whole process is so broken. My colleagues from east Europe could get their green card within a year of application and yet Im forced to wait for years!

(throwaway account)

After 12 years (of which 7+ years waiting for a green card) I have come to a similar conclusion.

How do you compare living in Canada vs USA , like schools and opportunities for spouses ?
