    Yes. In fact I just filled a UK ETA for my 1 year old daughter, and after taking a photo of the MRZ the application asked me to confirm if she was born in 1924 or 2024 :-)

    Aren't all immigration "arrests" all "detentions", technically speaking (not that it makes any difference in reality - you're behind bars)? Aren't ICE prisons called "detention cen…

    In my EU country, lots of first year students are kind of lost and are picking their major more or less at random (or very unprepared). Very low passing rates in first year are ver…

    I went to Japan (first time) a few months ago, and I was blown away by almost everything (including what you mention). It's just so different from the US in almost every way, but s…

    Ha so that's why my git pull were so slow. I should have checked HN faster.

    I get you. AFAICT what's included for airlines is basically "get me from A to B". There are usually ways to filter out by seat types, though, both on airlines websites and in place…

    For plane that's pretty unfair. If you don't get any ancillary fees, the price you see is almost exactly up to the cent what you pay. Now if you get any extra, sure. But that's a d…

    I'm sure Peter can answer this much better than I can, but just in case: you might want to look into Direct Consular Filing and whether it applies to you https://www.boundless.com/…
