sparrow98··on I'm Peter Roberts, immigration attorney who does work for YC and startups. AMA
It's regarding my recent I-485 filing and my spouse's green card eligibility. Due to unforeseen family circumstances, my spouse and I are considering divorcing, but I want to ensure that my spouse's green card application is not jeopardized in the process. As the primary applicant, I am committed to supporting my spouse through the green card process before finalizing our divorce. To navigate this complex situation effectively, I would greatly appreciate your expert guidance on the following questions:

1. What are the potential risks to my spouse's green card eligibility if we proceed with the divorce after the application is approved?

2. What are the potential risks to my spouse's green card eligibility if we initialize the divorce before the application is approved?

3. What steps can I take to demonstrate the bona fide nature of our marriage and minimize any suspicions from USCIS regarding the timing of our divorce?

4. In the worst-case scenario, could my own green card application be jeopardized by this situation, and if so, what precautions can I take to protect my own immigration status?

Thanks for the tips! I'm a beginner to running but I had been doing boxing/weight lifting for a few months before that, so far the tempo/5k pace is working fine for me, but I will pay more attention on not to injury myself :) For the taper part I'll dig deeper! Thank you for the kinda advice!

sparrow98··on Show HN: You Need Less Caffeine Than You Think
Sleep and food are essential to our life while caffeine isn't in my opinion. Interesting, my friend also told me about carnosine that can be found in red meat, would that be a reason contributes to your energy? Diet indeed is another intriguing topic to dive deep into.

In terms of caffeine it may change the dose of it. On the other hand, high quality of coffee I presume they taste better, and I want to drink more of it lol.

Per my experience, L-Theanine really helped to counter anxiety, I rarely take caffeine alone without L-Theanine nowadays.

It seems simple carb diet leads to rapid spikes and crashes in blood sugar, which can cause energy level fluctuation and impact alertness and sleepiness. On the other hand, slow carb diet provides better blood sugar control and many other benefits. Also, slow carb diet usually opts for whole, unprocessed food, which links back to Zelphyr's point 1 as well. Fascinating.

Sorry I can't reproduce the issue since I don't have an Android device. But I do find the caffeine habits diagram is broken hmm. I will see what I can do. Thanks for the headsup!

That means carbohydrate diet would keep us more alerted? I also heard the glucose makes us sleepier, but it's total anecdote that I never researched.

Andrew Huberman brought up that caffeine can bias individual's preference of beverages, though I haven't looked into related research papers.

I drink decaf coffee and caffeine pills to control the dose nowadays.

Diet is an interesting angle, do you think diet would contribute to a better sleep? I tend to find a high quality sleep leads to a energetic day for me.

Around 74% American consumers drink coffee everyday, I guess it's not hard addiction but lots of people do have a strong habit of consuming coffee or caffeinated drinks almost daily.
