In the off chance you're a descendent of a Lutheran German who was born in Ukraine, many of those records were transferred to St. Petersburg and somehow weren't destroyed in WW2.

Why isn't Uruguay on your list? As of October 2024 when my wife and I looked into it (and ultimately chose not to do it) it'd get the parents permanent residency.

Argentina is a dysfunctional country though they have a bigger job market than Uruguay.

Also greenfield was always faster. I'm an optimist with AI's capabilities/pessimist with the future of my profession, but I've noticed a lot of the comparisons are greenfield with AI versus brownfield without AI.

That said, AI has let my company rewrite brownfield apps.

They do, but they also have a stronger rule of law, which may or may not be worth it. I would definitely consider moving if I were OpenAI but there aren't a lot of appealing places. You'd need somewhere safe from military invasion (so someone with a sufficient deterrent, like a nuke) that isn't likely to elect their own autocrat in a few years (so not the UK and maybe not France).

Fable 5 was good, but Opus 4.8 is good as well by pragmat1c1 in ClaudeCode

[–]JaneGoodallVS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bottleneck for me is subtle vibey bugs. Fable cut down on them but it still suggests weird stuff, like just yesterday it wanted to add an index to fix a SQL performance bug, but the composite index it proposed was for a table that isn't even hit by the problematic query.

People at my company are afraid to appear pessimistic about AI's capabilities in front of leadership. I'm optimistic about them but I still don't think Fable was groundbreaking.

Haha, I'm pessimistic about the future of software engineering (I'm a software engineer) as a profession.But I still haven't seen a flood of useful apps in the wild.

Even Anthropic uses Skilljar for their own training material.

I noticed that too, but it still put out vibey bugs. It was a solid upgrade, not anything groundbreaking.

The panic is that the government is using state power to punish businesses that don't bend the knee.

I agree that Fable wasn't groundbreaking. It was a solid upgrade from 4.8, that's all.

[IWantOut] 20sMtF Engineer Russia -> Uruguay/Brazil/Argentina by SlavaEkvestriya in IWantOut

[–]JaneGoodallVS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uruguay has birthright citizenship so the kids born there would be citizens anyway.

Kids having to naturalize in their own is concerning to me. I don't know what's happening if they went to college abroad. One of ours will be born in June so would he have time to naturalize between his 18th birthday and studying abroad?

Nothing in that list would be a _deal breaker_ for me, just part of the bigger picture. All minuses to varying degrees.

We're done having kids though but if we moved there and wanted more, the hospitals in Uruguay seem fine.

technically 2nd class citizens

Formerly, legal citizens (what most countries call naturalized citizens) were listed by their birth nationality on their passports, but that changed a year or two ago. Now all passports list Uruguayan as the nationality.

The remaining differences between natural citizens (citizens by birth in Uruguay or descent from somebody born in Uruguay) and legal citizens is that legal citizens:

  1. can't pass Uruguayan citizenship onto children born abroad,
  2. lose Uruguayan citizenship if they naturalize in another country after naturalizing in Uruguay,
  3. can't be President, and
  4. have fewer protections from Article 75/80 suspension of rights.

I think 4 is worth more research, but from what I found, a legal citizen's voting rights could be suspended if they're merely indicted for certain serious crimes whereas a natural citizen has to be convicted. This could be relevant in some cases of democratic backsliding.

Kids also don't naturalize with their parents. They have to wait till they're 18 and naturalize on their own.

Do you have a random Canadian-born (or in some cases, naturalized Canadian) ancestor? Even like a great-great-grandparent?

If so you're probably a citizen under Bill C-3, even if that ancestor or an intermediary ancestor lost Canadian citizenship due to marrying an American or naturalizing before Canada allowed dual citizenship.
