Great article but is missing sources with citations so I ran the content against GPTZero's source finder - https://app.gptzero.me/documents/124f8c4d-9fd4-43c4-93f9-713...
Re:I'm Peter Roberts who does work for YC and startups. AMA on Monday October 21, 2024 @07:00AM (#41902821)
I was in the USA on H1-B for 3.5 years and moved to India in 2019. My employer recently applied for my H1B, but it got rejected stating that I'm subject to the fiscal year cap (“lottery”). The company lawyers have turned the case around and re-filed it because I've had H1b in the past and didn't use my full quota of 6 years and should be cap-exempt now. Have you seen this happen before? Does USCIS typically correct itself when it makes a mistake in a reasonable time? (fwiw, my case is filed as premium)

Thanks in advance!

Love this style. Acts as much better persuasion tactic than simply asking them, "why do you want to work at xx?"

FWIW, wsj is $10 per month if you enroll through google pay. Plus, they have 6 months free to start with currently.
My coworker showed this to me as a suggestion to use for capturing our existing state flows with the aim of using it as a reference when we migrate our legacy codebase to react/redux. I think this is wonderful. Any thoughts on this? I would also love some alternatives you've used to document requirements specifically for migrating existing codebase to a more manageable one.

I had this exact idea (literally) and I guess I was thinking too much about how to get that initial set of users way too early and ended up quitting before even finishing the development of the app. This developer is at the stage where he/she should actually work on that now and I wish them all the best! :)

This has been an amazing read for me. Throughout the article, I felt like more freedom can only lead to more problems. But then, by the end I realized trolls can't win over everyone else.
This! If there is one thing to fix health data communications, its coming up with better spec than HL7. Nothing makes me more sad than dealing with HL7 messages.
That is a nice website. Congrats on shipping it!
WebRTC for all real time communications/broadcast.
Siri vs Google assistant. Google assistant being way better in understanding voice and performing tasks. I've used both iPhone and Pixel and I can confirm that Google assistant is way more smart and intelligent than Siri at this point.

What in your opinion is the third one? (Starting curious?).

I deactivated my facebook account and deleted my whatsapp account a little over a month ago and with the amount of free time i got, I decided against the use of instagram as well.

This article makes me feel not so antisocial anymore, thank you! :D

I use them very rarely. Pocket has become my preferred source for storing, managing and sharing my links now.
