TODO, as the name implies, should be things that must be done. Anything aspirational could be left as a mere ordinary comment.

Personally I hate TODOs and only see them as temporary things to act as placeholders for the correct code. At some point, I will go through all todos and clear them.

The brighter side is when the shit hits the fan both the universities and bullshit degree holders will be the losers. Economy will recover in a few years and we will have a better economy.

Isn't light-years a unit of distance and not time ?

These are changes to "application" only. It has nothing to do with H1B itself. H1B program has been currently a textbook example of government incompetence. I shudder to think how the US government would have treated its citizens (or part there of) if they could not vote.

This is a minor rejig of the application process that aims at making the process less transparent, waste more visas (by not giving them to anyone) and makes life easy for those who skirt the law.

They might be shooting themselves in foot here. Part of the reason why Microsoft is so big and why there is a PC n every home is because many of us could pirate Windows and Office in early days. That reduced barrier to entry and enabled poor folks in India and elsewhere use computers and be familiar with all other MS technologies.

The population density of Delhi is 29K people per sq mile which is one of the highest in the world. Tokyo, for example, has a population density of 16k.

India's population density is not really a problem though, the problem is lack of urbanization and absolutely horrible California like land regulations that prevent building new cities and infrastructure.

Delhi's pollution is not caused by Delhi, it is caused by neighboring farming zones that burn the stubble.

Because some of us want our government not to protect our Food and Cars as well. Data is one area where humanity has made the fastest progress compared to Cars and Food.

None of those things have anything to do with sustainability and mismanagement of California's resources.

I am not even sure why Windows matters anymore. MS probably gives 0 fucks about your usual consumers and cares only about those customers who will also buy Office365 subscription.

I have long stopped using American social media for anything. I think everyone else should do the same.

This move is already proving pretty awesome for homebuyers like me as more builders seem to be focusing on "build and sell" not instead of "build and rent out".
