Sad but hopefully these stories will bring some positive changes in immigration system for everyone.

Almost all Muslim Pakistanis and Christian Indians somehow trace their family tree back to Middle East during the time period of their prophets. Many times it is obvious that even if they have any middle eastern DNA, it is negligible compared to rest of it. Why not learn about your ancestors who were not of same religion as you.

And why stop at 1400 or 2000 years back. Why not trace it further back.

And in the west, with superiority complex of European culture, many serious Christians get absolutely confused when you tell them that it is amazing how a middle eastern religion took over the entire Europe and the west. Some people even deny that Christianity is middle eastern.

So would real card.

Probably, harder to raise money or exit.

On the other hand, with lack of regulations, it might be easy to offload cost on to public. I suspect we will see a lot of scammy fintech, environment destroying projects, alternate medicines, and snake oils. I am actually excited and bullish on CRSPR and genetic editing tech.

I think most of people saying that other languages are “better” are just repeating outdated information.

Sure there are fast ways to get MVPs out with other languages like Vercel for JavaScript etc. But that is not cheap. And sure you can get a pretty cheap VPS but setting it up for anything non-static websites is time consuming and has potential for errors.

With PHP, you can have your proof of concept out in public for almost free and almost immediately. And once it is working, why bother rewriting the app in a better language unless you run into some kind of limitation.

He had helpfully removed details under his old jobs. His resume reflected his communication style. I recommended hiring him.

And now majority of democrats are seeing their world turn upside down too. Maybe this will eventually unite and organize the left, maybe not. But Biden has done too much damage to democrats.
