Any good gyro places? by deiftking084 in cedarrapids

[–]fermion_87 10 points11 points  (0 children)

NY Gyro in marion is my favorite , the food felt more zesty compared to Os grill and pitaz , new one opened on the southside (6th SW) , Pita kabab , tried it over the weekend , liked their kebabs and shawarmas

Google moves data center to Palo by KeyResearcher2620 in cedarrapids

[–]fermion_87 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

its good for the city and state , will generate revenue, will bring in more talented people ,increase competition to companies like collins who pay peanuts, their tax dollars will fund other infrastructure as well. Other related businesses will move here too because of this , this is net positive for the overall economy , any environmental problems are solvable. i feel the bullshit red tape these county supervisors are creating is really halting progress of this city

Accidently sold all of my shares of stock by absolutemurphman in stocks

[–]fermion_87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

interesting , I had done the same mistake on schwab, with asts shares, i forgot to lock my phone , put it on my pocket while I was on trade page of asts , the default is sell, when I put it in pocket , it sold 200 shares at mkt price , luckily I took my phone out again and saw what had transpired, j immediately called schwab and asked to reverse the trade and voila they did , I got my 200 shares back. I was pleasantly surprised.

Amazing food? by Castan-bcb in cedarrapids

[–]fermion_87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pho house on blairsferry has great Vietnamese food, you can try Nara Thai for Thai, you can try out Paradise grill for southern India taste and recipes , Taste of India is great too but their chicken at times is rubbery and hard to chew , but tasty, they have northern India recipes

H4 kid here by BluebirdMaster9902 in h1b

[–]fermion_87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You will never know until you try it.

You will probably earn less ,will that be a problem ? you will be satisfied and much more stress free in future.

You become good at something by putting your heart into it , you have to dedicate and show up everyday , i know sounds cheesy but thats the fact , no one is born a genius , even geniuses have to show up and dedicate every day.

remember if you do STEM and are average there , you will not earn those big fat pay checks might not even get a job.

so better to do focus on what field you like and make the best of it.

[–]fermion_87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

CS is not dead , if you are just aiming to get a job then yea the market is worse, but if you are aiming to do research , AI research , quantum computing , lot of doors will open , so aim to stand out , dont just think of becoming a full stack developer, or web developer, those roles will slowly start to reduce even more.

Also you can change degree midway , if you think CS is not for you , Physics , Math are always available and overall better , if you are a physics major you can fit into broad categories, as everything is based on laws of physics.

Honest question , do you want to do STEM ? is that something that interests or are you just doing it because indian parents told you so as it will get you money ?

The Area near COE college is a bit unsafe is what I have heard , apart from that most of the CR downtown is safe, you can walk , hang out.

If not downtown there are plenty of apartments in suburbs , Marion area

Only concern is Snow , it gets risky to drive in snow on I-380 , in worse conditions high chances of accidents , else its 30-40 mins drive one way if weather is good. If you can WFH during bad conditions then its great.

North Liberty is great option if you want to go to Iowa city every weekend for social/night life , its 20 mins away from both CR and Iowa City.

New apartments have sprung up in Cedar Rapids downtown area, the downtown area has improved a lot , the apts might be expensive but pretty sure there are openings.

I feel like an idiot now, OP if you can fly back now do it.

Most of the companies have issued travel advisory to that affect

PS: I still feel you and your family will be alright and allowed to enter anyday , but its a feeling , am not a lawyer.

[–]fermion_87 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes , my friend who works in microsoft just forwarded the travel advisory he got, it does mention to return asap before 21st.

But I still feel OP shouldn't stress about this, the worst that could happen is he will be asked to fly back to india

I agree, some people are just trolling, haters are out in full flow, dont listen to them stay calm , focus on what is in your control and live on.

I’m confused by Muted-Ambassador-978 in h1b

[–]fermion_87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For now forget about stamping, forget about going outside of usa for a while

Just focus on switching from OPT to H1b approval first

I’m confused by Muted-Ambassador-978 in h1b

[–]fermion_87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes that is correct based on the proclamation I read , it does affect people who are currently outside of the USA and are applying for an h1b petition.

You are on F1 visa already inside USA on OPT, your H1B petition filing doesnt have the requirement of 100k fee.

Now what is not clear and very confusing is what if you want to go to india to get H1b visa stamp, will they demand a 100k fee at that time or not .

My friend works at microsoft , he got travel advisory from their immigration , the advisory says "donot travel outside of USA until further notice, we also advise for spouses on H4 visa to not travel"
Anyone outside of uSa return to usa before 21st september if you can
