@dave the most progress in the field has always happened here first. Including the ossification and horrid ness of everything. I think it’ll be contagious to other markets, but I hope I’m wrong.

The main thing I am optimistic about is there are more tech-adjacent jobs here which are less soul-sucking. I’ve certainly spent some time trying to navigate that and, I’ve been thankful that I’ve been able to access these opportunities even as an immigrant.

The one thing I’ll say is that once you’re here, you’re rarely put into an Others bucket, unless many other migration destinations where you are made to feel your foreignness daily: socially as well as legally.

You’re almost never asked for your immigration or citizenship status, for example, except for things like voting.
