This screws over anyone who enters the country on visitor/temp work or student visa since those visas are not immigrant visa. You would be expected to leave the country and apply for GC overseas if you got married on one of those.

What this screws over is there was plenty of people from US visa waiver countries who decided K-1 was too hard and just flew over to US and got married. They would then apply for Adjustment of Status. That is big door being shut close because B-1 is non immigrant intent visa.

My room mate from college did this with UK foreign exchange student 20 years ago. She came over on visitor visa, got married and they got a lawyer to fix it all up.

Generally it takes 30 days past due and complete no contact for anyone before suspension.

I've been a government contractor before, it does not employ best and brightest, it employs the average and below generally.

Strong disagree. The person in question probably thought it was a private repo on Github and had a massive deer in headlights reaction when they got contacted. Whoever this is, lost their job, possibly security clearance and more. This was 100% life altering "mistake"/gross incompetence decision they made.

It would almost need to be analog. Fill out this form and drop it in the mail with 10 bucks inside.

Sure, Rust is completely different beast with different target system.

Windows Development is not "We are not dogfooding", it's that incentives are misaligned with customer wants.

.Net team incentives are aligned with customer wants, provide a language that is highly performant and easy enough to write.

PyPy doesn't have the support it needs and is stuck on 3.11.

So any change to GC starts with massive .Net MSFT code base so they get extremely good telemetry back about any downsides and might be able to fix it in time.

Can we get TL;Don't Have MBA summary?

A) Sometimes, it's existing datacenter that repurposed from "normal" datacenter to AI datacenter with power consumption skyrocketing. There generally is not a ton of approval in this case or power company came by asking for additional infrastructure approval and who the hell denies that.

B) Some areas classed datacenters as "industrial" use so they could be built without a ton of preapproval. Most counties have closed that loophole but existing permits may allow additional datacenters to be built.

C) Local officials approving things over desire of the voters. Alot of people don't pay attention to their local politicians despite them having most impact on their day-to-day life. Therefore, you end up with local politicians who will believe whatever they are told along with just plain overall corruption. Most of it legal.

Also, as someone who used to live in Capital Region, National Politics can suck out all oxygen in the room so local officials are even less likely monitored.

Societally, almost everyone would argue we shouldn't encourage women to have kids that young.

Business users are their focus and outside select industries, vast majority of businesses don't care if government is spying or not. Heck, most businesses would turn over information to government without any fight. It's just not something they worry about.

K8s as small time is overkill for sure but make sure you don't fall into this trap. https://www.macchaffee.com/blog/2024/you-have-built-a-kubern...
