An alien who is in the U.S. temporarily and wants a Green Card must return to their home country to apply.
This policy allows our immigration system to function as the law intended instead of incentivizing loopholes.
The era of abusing our nation’s immigration system is over.
Such bad advice. I’ve seen founders do exactly this and create years of unnecessary friction.
Unless you’re already a rocket ship with investors lined up, the last thing you want in the earliest stages is a non-standard structure that complicates SAFEs, diligence, and fundraising conversations.
Early-stage startups survive on momentum. Don’t burn cycles explaining clever legal structures instead of building the company.
HR is bureaucracy. Large companies need checks and balances during peacetime.
But startups in wartime don’t win through layers of process. They win through a small, highly aligned group of people making miracles happen fast.

I can confirm. We did get rid of our HR team. Anyone who loves creating problems vs solving them has no place at a startup. Bolt is now operating once again as a startup and at Lightning Speed. Thank you Fortune for having me as your keynote speaker ⚡️

Not just by out-innovating startups.
By suffocating good-faith builders with false positives, lockouts, and opaque enforcement while their business is on fire.
Anthropic should be winning startups through innovation, not killing them.
So we did what startups do.
We moved.
We were able to continue the same kind of work in @openai Codex and keep going.
So this did not feel like “we were obviously doing something wrong.”
It felt like one platform treated normal builder behavior like a crime, and another didn’t.
That may be the real lesson here.
A model is not infrastructure if a false positive can erase your team in 24 minutes.
@AnthropicAI gave us a form.
Codex gave us a way out.

That was the first moment this stopped feeling like a death sentence and started feeling like a migration.
