As someone who uses (or used to use) Steam Link to be able to use a Windows PC headlessly to game from a macOS machine, I think it's a really compelling argument to consider it bef…

Depending on where you live, check and see if you have Natural Wireless[0] available in your building/residence. Recently moved into an apartment that is lucky enough to get their …

It's a good question - I believe it's the latter, terminating status with previous employer with validity matching previous expiration date.

Going through this right now! Applying for a new TN through change of employer (COE) while residing in the US. I was given the option to fly back and forth to apply at the border, …

Am curious: what made it so difficult to cancel / unsubscribe? If you subscribed with a credit card, did the option of chargebacks ever come up? (Asking because these sorts of situ…

Interesting! Thanks for sharing that. What sort of supporting documents did you end up having, to prove that you were supporting "a professional in the scientific field"?

100%. The decision to approve or deny is entirely in the hands of the officer, and I managed to get a NAFTA officer who interpreted the agreement in my favour. It's why so much tim…

If I understand the requirements correctly, it's _any_ diploma or degree, plus 3 years of Computer Systems Analyst experience.

It's my second go at getting a TN visa (for Computer Systems Analyst designation) and you don't necessarily need a CS degree, but if you don't have one, you will need at least a tw…

Have you seen any issues lately with H1-B/TN visas being granted to technical employees who don't have a degree in CS or software engineering? Additionally, what questions/document…

Not that I would (or have) tried either idea, but you'd still need USCIS to grant you a TN visa that's tied to your employer, and I imagine it would be tougher if it was a no name …

Ah, thanks for sharing that. Guessing once the RFE was sent off, everything was okay? Crazy that it took 3 months to prepare and send the RFE, though I'm assuming USCIS provided an…

The lawyers have not mentioned anything near that, otherwise I'd be working right now! My application used Premium Processing, and I got an RFE, so I'm still sitting here on my han…

Oof, that's a long wait. If you don't mind me asking, is it because of the whole H1B status with the current administration, or of additional hoops you had to jump through for the …

Does the 60 day timeline include the amount of time you need to be approved for the visa, as well? I wasn't laid off, but am in the process of changing employers with my TN visa. T…

As a counter point: the golden handcuffs for startups/companies aren't guaranteed to pay off, so the employee may decide that the options are still worth $0 and not bother with inc…

I gotta ask... are companies you're interviewing with expecting you to have memorized particular algorithms? Or to be perfect with syntax? In my most recent round of interviews, I …

Would you be able to expand on what your setup looks/looked like? I've long wanted to get an iPad to do development work, but haven't been able to find a great setup for JS/Go deve…

I've gone through the motions of emailing the book to my Kindle, which allows it to be downloadable on other Kindle devices or the app, and also syncs up reading location. Doesn't …

Agree! And I'm sure it's also another script to add to the templates, at the footer of a post template, probably?

Not OP, but you can embed Google Analytics (or Tag Manager) into your Hugo template, and it's fairly straightforward to do. Comments I'm not entirely sure of, because I never wante…

Ah, you know for some reason I was thinking Cloudflare was also doing some hosting, and now I realize I shouldn't make comments on things without having consumed a coffee to start …

Guess it's having connectivity issues? Haven't read the post yet, but any advantages to using Gitlab Pages and Cloudflare with Hugo over using Netlify? My personal blog[0] is Hugo …

As someone who's about to enter management track, I'd be curious (and open to a conversation!) about what you've been doing to both demonstrate your management skills and putting u…

Love this! I was thinking of something similar, but mostly as an inventory + expiration tracking system, because we often forget what we have in the fridge and cabinets. I love the…
