That's how that works. Take for example, HIV. Nobody dies of HIV, but because HIV causes immunodeficiency, you can die because of common cold or flu. That doesn't mean the person died because of common cold, they died because of H

Ok, NY counted some that they shouldn't have. There's a vast majority of the country other than NYC that is affected by the virus and vast rest of the world too. You decided to nitpick one example and made it sound like a pattern.

I don't see the link here. Yes there are 22 million laid off. But given a choice between being alive and being jobless, I think people would choose being jobless. The people protesting are not the same people lining up at food banks. I

As another guy from India who was on H1B and started a company. You can start a company but you may not work for it. You can attend the board meetings and that's the extent of your involvement. If you do anything, even clean the floors

Problem is finding people who have enough experience and skillset that matches with that experience. One of the places I worked at, I interviewed 4 candidates, but they couldn't even explain the stuff that they wrote on their resume or

If you like your job and it pays well, why leave it. Your problem is not job, your problem is that you haven't taken any vacations. Just take a month off and plan a vacation. Or just stay home and work in your health. I used to pool my

Pull up BBC articles about India in past 10 years and I guarantee you that 90% of politics related opinion and news pieces are very biased.
