I am reading the article and it looks like it is being compared to the elder cohorts of Qubec children and also rest of Canada.

Looks like Quebec's past and rest of Canada is the control.

You might want to make the sarcasm clearer. People might think Elon Musk actually said that.

Not related, but to add some woes of the american immigration system.

There is no instant green card.

If a truly extraordinary Indian-born person (say a Nobel laureate or olympic gold medalist) files for a green card today, they will be waiting for 7-10 years to get a green card. At this point, it may be worse too, because this category's priority date has not moved a single day in 8 months.

On paper sure. But what is the reality like?

Please read about Dr. Shakil Afridi. The doctor who helped CIA find Laden has been in Pakistani prison for a decade plus now, on false drummed up charges.

Why are you sure that Pakistan is not supporting terrorists now, after decades and decades of evidence otherwise?

> It’s not like subpar research is ubiquitously getting funded over better research with lower “broader impacts” scores.

Yeah I don't buy that.

I've seen equity directives in universities explicitly asking to hire only underrepresented minorities, or give one third of a candidate's score based on race and gender characteristics (the other two thirds were resume and interview).

I've heard equity hiring quotas given to execs in tech industry. I've heard of pressure to hire/promote minorities.

I've seen what affirmative action did to University admissions. The admissions office reduced Asian Americans score on "likeability". As a result they needed a higher sat score than any other group for admissions. The hiring office essentially said that they did not like Asians.

So sorry, I do not buy the argument that equity initiatives just choose a minority representation from equally qualified samples. Because from what you say, Asian americans wouldn't have been discriminated against.

wiv was not documenting them. Hospitals were documenting flu like cases increasing at exponential rages. And there are hospitals everywhere

As someone else has said, this isn't legal. I hope you don't publicize the actions you took.

I will be actually inquisitive now. This is certainly new knowledge for me.

What in the deal made it "less than a state"?

But Israel was not the one that rejected two state solutions offered by UN in 1948, USA in 2000, and by Israel in 1990s, 2008 etc. It was Arab countries, and Palestinian leaders.

Why was Palestine not a state before 1967 with Gaza and West bank as territory?

How many times have Palestinians offered to recognize and make permanent peace with Israel?

Responding to your edit

>> If after an independent Palestinian state is established on the pre-1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital, all of West Bank and all of Gaza and then Israel faces violence from that state, then you'll have support of many you don't right now.

Huh, why did they not accept it in 2000 then? Why launch the second intifada? Why ask the "right to return"? Why call for the destruction of the entirety of Israel as a "white settler colonial state"?

USA is not a real democracy either in your definition.

Jersey City has the broker problem too

If only I could be in so much debt and the govt gives me a loan with such generous terms.

The government undoubtedly provided its backing to the banks. That "profit" is not commensurate to the risk that the govt took on.
