Sofi requires residency verification every 6 months. If you're in #greencardbacklogs with a Sofi account, keep this in mind @SoFiSupport:

"You're required to verify your U.S. residency status every 6 months. Failure to do so may result in your SoFi Invest account(s) being restricted, and ultimately closed."

It’s unfortunate to hear comments from leaders who’ve built successful companies and shaped today’s India. Instead of just passing judgment & providing advises on long hours, they could create policies that motivate everyone to work with the same drive, commitment, and hours as C-suite leaders.

Aligning employee interests with company success through profit/loss-sharing, financial transparency, career growth pathways, and continuous empowerment can help achieve this. When every employee is an equal partner, they’re more motivated to contribute to the company's growth as if it's their business. #90hours #70hours #longhours

I have asked Grok about the immigration issue related to huge backlogs. Here it's the answer!

The wait times for Indian-born applicants for a Green Card under the EB-2 and EB3 categories are significantly influenced by several factors, including the current backlog numbers, the per-country cap limit, and priority date retrogression Here's a detailed look based on the most recent data:

EB-2 (Second Preference - Professionals Holding Advanced Degrees or Persons of Exceptional Ability):

Current Backlog and Priority Dates: The backlog for Indian nationals in the EB-2 category is substantial. As of the latest data, priority dates for EB-2 India are for applications filed before May 15, 2012, according to the May 2024 Visa Bulletin. This indicates a backlog of over 12 years for those who applied in 2012.

Estimated Wait Times: Given the high volume of applications and the cap of approximately 2,803 green cards per year for India under EB-2, without significant changes in policy, the wait could extend beyond the natural lifespan for many new applicants. Some projections based on the backlog suggest waits could be 100 years or more if policies remain unchanged due to the limited number of visas available each year and the high demand.

EB-3 (Third Preference - Skilled Workers, Professionals, and Other Workers):

Current Backlog and Priority Dates: Similarly, the EB-3 category for India faces severe backlogs. The priority date for EB-3 India was May 1, 2012, as per the latest available data.

Estimated Wait Times: Like EB-2, the EB-3 category for Indian applicants has a considerable wait time due to the backlog. Estimates suggest that new applicants might face waits of several decades, with some sources indicating up to 40 years or more based on current trends in priority date movement.

Key Considerations:

Per-Country Cap: The U.S. immigration system limits the number of employment-based green cards to 7% of the total available per country per year, which significantly impacts countries like India with high demand.

Priority Date Retrogression: This phenomenon occurs when the demand for visas exceeds supply, causing the priority dates to move backward, further lengthening wait times.

Backlog: Over 1 million Indian nationals are currently waiting for Green Cards in employment-based categories, with EB-2 and EB-3 being the most backlogged.

Spillover: While there is a mechanism for unused visas from other categories or countries to "spill over" to backlogged categories, this has not significantly alleviated the wait times for India due to the scale of the backlog.

Conclusion: Given current policies, trends, and data:

EB-2: The wait could be well over 100 years for new applicants if no policy changes occur.

EB-3: The wait could be around 40 years or more, though this might vary slightly year by year based on visa usage and backlog clearance.

These estimates are speculative and based on current conditions; any changes in U.S. immigration policy, like removing or adjusting the per-country cap, could significantly alter these wait times. However, under current conditions and without legislative changes, these are the projections one might face.

Google's Genie 2: A Leap in AI-Driven 3D World Creation
https://t.co/lpp8lFHvVa

In a groundbreaking move, Google DeepMind has introduced Genie 2, an AI model that can generate a diverse array of interactive, playable 3D worlds from just a single image or text prompt. This announcement marks a significant advancement in how we interact with and create digital environments, potentially transforming the gaming industry and beyond.

Genie 2 stands out by offering not just static world generation but dynamic, action-controllable environments where users can interact in real-time. This could pave the way for more sophisticated training and evaluation of embodied agents in virtually limitless scenarios, hinting at future applications in AI research, virtual reality, and game development.

For developers and enthusiasts, this means a new era where creativity is no longer bound by traditional world-building tools. Imagine crafting a game world from a simple sketch or turning a photograph into an interactive landscape where you can explore or play.

The solution to the puzzle is 10.

Line 1: Three pairs of earbuds equal 30, so one pair of earbuds equals 10 (30 / 3 = 10).

Line 2: Two people plus one pair of earbuds equals 20. Subtracting the value of the earbuds (10) leaves 10, meaning each person equals 5 (10 / 2 = 5).

Line 3: Two watches plus one person equals 13. Subtracting the value of the person (5) leaves 8, meaning each watch equals 4 (8 / 2 = 4).

Line 4: One earbud (10) plus one person (5) multiplied by one watch (4) equals: 10 + (5 x 4) = 10 + 20 = 10.

Time to try Grok :-)

In X's digital realm, I sit and wait,
For that Blue Tick, my heart does elate.
Let's weave tales of innovation, bright,
And immigration's plight, in our shared sight.

How might we craft a world so fair,
Where each soul can thrive, without a care?
In this space, let’s share our dreams,
Of future thinking, in vibrant streams.

@TheRahulMenon There is certainly discrimination if a person's country of birth is considered, as it is an unchangeable. This discrimination is leading to a form of invisible slavery, where individuals are unable to change jobs easily, akin to chained labor, albeit in a less visible manner.
