A good friend actually used June Advisors Group mentioned in the article a couple of years ago. The firm (really a sole attorney) sounded very helpful and got his business set up with a residence card pretty easily. IIRC it took a couple of months end-to-end.

This will be a huge gift horse to Zuckerberg/Facebook and I have a sneaking suspicion it's a project of Peter Thiel. There are a lot of remedies that could be taken if we suspect TikTok of malfeasance, but a straight up ban? I smell fish.

As a father, a husband, a former soldier and an American, this brings a tear to my eye.
“We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.” - Lincoln
As an American I feel we are bound not by our failures of past morality, but are need to fix the. I wish everyone understood this.
What me and my family talked about today is that, as immigrants, we are so sad how much the "native born" people of the US hate their own country. They seem to never waste an opportunity to remind others of their disdain and it is more and more visible these days e.g. in big news media or on Twitter.
Makes me sad and I hope this can change.

Nitpick but I hope the overtly (about 10px) rounded corners of running app windows aren't there to stay. Looks heavy/dated.

Curious question as I am not a compiler expert.
I have to do front-end iOS work from time to time and it's surprising how bad auto-complete can be in Xcode with Swift even after all these years: still randomly sluggish, randomly stops working inside closures including completely losing syntax highlighting inside the closure, and even Cmd+clicking to see the definition is a hit-or-miss as it sometimes opens up a blank editor and just spins. I would have thought that Swift having a strict type system would have made the IDE experience better, not worse. Don't know if the grammar is too complex or if it is the bridging with ObjC stuff or something else that made it difficult to build a robust solution. Can anyone shed light on this?
My points of reference are rust-analyzer, or just VSCode with Typescript, both very snappy although of course the languages are very different. If anything I'd expect Swift to be closer to Rust experience-wise since they both have pretty strict grammars.
I posited that this was the benefit in knowing Kubernetes all along, and possibly the ace up GCP's sleeve -- soon no cloud provider will have to offer their own interface, they'll all just offer the one invented by Kubernetes.
