This 20% was captured before any aid was granted.

The key thing to successfully take refuge in Russia is to be mentally Russian. Ukraine has plenty of such people, at least because 20% of population are ethnical Russians who migrated here at different times in our history. For somebody like me, whose Russian skills are on lower intermediate side, posting comments like this in social networks occupation is effectively a death sentence, there's no way around that.

As an example my friend barely left Russian checkpoint alive after they took his phone for check-up. They were beating him for hours, because they found picture where he stands near the Ukrainian flag. Twist: he was 17 at that time, would he be a bit older, I don't know what would happen. And this is just one example among countless. You can see what happened in Bucha, Izyum, Mariupol, etc. You can learn what happened during the Soviet period after we briefly regained independence. Our population shrinked by double digit percentage pre WWII.

Average homo sovieticus with no sense of identity will be sort of okay, that's true. But Russia probably will use the men for the next war similar to what they did with people occupied in 2014.

But this estimate is for "free learning"?

The reason wasn't specified. Are they supposed to specify the reason like security check?

The officer told me to send CV, job offer and support letter on email. Even though these were available at the interview so this ask looks to me more like a facade.

I got 221g administrative processing denial for L1-B recently. I work at FAANG. From your experience is there any chance that this will clear itself soonish or that's kinda the end of the story? I know a few stuck waiting for more than a year. Is such an outcome likely for me?

Imo that's BS, because hair loss happens due to hair miniaturization and impact on miniaturization is not discussed in this article at all. Iow completely bald areas will likely stay bald and that's the problem that no medicine can tackle.

I worked in smaller companies and now I work at Google. I enjoyed working for smaller companies so much more. I would never make a change from a small company to Google for the same pay. I think you will be shocked by how political and non-meritocratic Google is. Living abroad is also far from being all roses.
