These were resold/transferred in China. Hoping that another country, especially China, will enforce your export controls seems naive. The laws are also stupid and unworkable. For example, they treat cloud services differently from physical possession. 1/2

Are you saying that the trajectory is a parabola?
Because that's what you're saying, if you think that it's correct that they follow a path predicted by Galileo.

East Asians too! And Hispanics. And Jews! Get the Irish also! Plus the Italians and the Poles! Basically, all Americans!

The thought that professionals might find shared values, goals, and vision more important in a marriage partner than one's ancestry is utterly incomprehensible to them.

That is for parking on the wrong side. If it was one way, seems like you could contest it.

"Kilojoules matter." What an idiot. He flunked his engineering courses. First, joules is energy. Using watts (as James does) makes more sense. Second, joules is a small unit. Even a donut has 1000 kilojoules in it. 😂 Lastly, he must not be aware of electric arc furnaces (EAF).

LOL, she circled the right-front corner of the chair, because it doesn't go down. She's literally never seen a desk-chair combo unit like in the URL: hertzfurniture.com/student-c….

What about these? Honest question. To me, it does not really look like a fishing boat either.

Your in luck. Someone (probably not Mark Twain) already made a plan.

Some of these likely came in under the Visa Waiver Program, which allows "consulting" and "training", but not "employment". No idea how those are distinguished.

Waves of immigrants from all over the world built this country. As soon as the US stops being the shining city on a hill for the best and brightest from all over the world, it will cede it technological dominance. (No, I do not favor open borders.) 2/2

This is incorrect. Note that Clinton and Obama decreased the deficit. Taxes were not through the roof, and growth was higher under Obama than Trump: finance.yahoo.com/news/gdp-g….
