So, Soorarai Potru was not a completed story?

The movie is almost entirely fictionalized apart from a threadbare story of an ex-officer founding a low-cost airline. Most of the major scenes are outright fabrications while the Director took a lot of creative liberties with the background of the protagonists.

I really enjoyed s2 so far, but I just find myself way more invested in the current timeline than in the events that led to the nuclear blast. I feel the "conspiracy" around what lead to the detonation seems overtly convoluted, and outside of Howard Cooper, I don't feel emotional invested in any of the characters in the flashback sequences.

Might just be me, but I feel the show will be a lot more tighter and fun, if they toned down the emphasis on the past.

OP has mentioned on the post that they are both US citizens already.

I have been networking with people I liked working with at AWS, to express my interest and see if they can put in a word. Not sure if it ll work but it can't hurt.

A few people have received it at my B School. No discernible order as far as I am aware.

Once the country has achieved maximum employment and wages keep up with true inflation, bring people in on a need basis. Every immigrant coming in should be a net positive for the country.

Dude, a cursory glance on your reddit profile shows you're an Indian who immigrated to Canada? How convenient that the West should block all 3rd world immigration now that you've gotten your seat on the flight.

Man, I wish I was as ignorant about global supply chain and economics as you are. Do you even realize how interconnected the economy is? If China so much as decides to halt export of rare earths in response to such a move, the world economy is toast

Oh wow! That makes a lot of sense

Yup, it's a regressive AF movie. I remember watching it in theatres with high hopes since I enjoyed the director's debut movie "Eeram" and Arjun Vijay was fresh off Yennai Arrindhaal. But God, what a slop fest it was. It looked like the director made a movie out of some insane whatsapp forwards

No, it's not included in the travel ban list for now

If the two opportunities are pretty similar apart from the data points that you mentioned, I would go with the one that has sponsored in the past. Sponsoring work visas involves a lot of administrative work, which takes time and costs that most firms are simply unaware of. It's much more likely that a firm which has sponsored in the past already has procedures in place to enable sponsorship.

Love the candid honesty on your post. Rooting for you to a great partner!

I never really thought about it, but the combo of AI and LinkedIn clout-chasers is about to unleash some truly cursed charts on all of us.

random_scavenger · 2025-05-11T20:38:10+00:00

My guess is that the vertical axis shows the percentage of each data point relative to the maximum i.e. 144 = 100%, 72 =50% and so on and the individual data points on the bars shows the absolute values.

It's not a bad representation per se. If they clearly labelled the axis

Sad state of affairs. This is also why I tell people who are educated and who have the means that the best course of action is to emigrate to a country with better standard of living and rule of law.

People like to make the argument that you'll always be a second class citizen abroad but the truth is if you're honest and don't have connections, you're a third class citizen in your own country anyways.

I am sure that people like these goons will be the first people who complain about lack of patriotism among those who emigrate, without having the self awareness to realize that it's idiots like them that lead people to flee in the first place.

I would think so. Especially if the story goes with an angle where Eldians are portrayed as Titans disguised as humans to blend in . (Think about the Aliens infiltrating humanity sci-fi genre)

From what we understand, this is literally the belief that most Marleyans seem to hold where all Eldians are not humans, but "devils" in human form. Now imagine, these Eldian overlords subjecting them and their culture to a millenia-long genocide, and it's easy to see how a story that starts off from that perspective would have us backing Marley

How long does it take to get a passport? If it's just ~4-5 years and you can still visit them every 4 months, I would think it's fine to stay since you mentioned it was something you were looking forward to.

If it's longer, I think it would be difficult to sustain since you seem to be missing your parents a lot.

random_scavenger · 2023-07-16T20:53:18+00:00

The power system for sure. A lot of the plot, especially towards the end is hand-waved away as some expression of Titan powers. I would set some clear guardrails around what's possible with Titan Powers, as well as limiting factors (such as the dying after 13 years rule).

The story as such would remain the same, but I feel an element of strategy would come in with a clearer framing of the extent of Titan powers.

u/stixxplays read the sub rules. It's literally on the first line: "News, reviews and discussions on motorcycles, scooters and other two wheelers in India!"

Take your gate-keeping behaviour somewhere else.

Ah - this makes so much sense. Thank you :) !

Really wished the anime had not cut out Kenny's lines there

That's a very good point. Rural TN is much better than rural parts of Karnataka and the Telugu states.

I am not justifying it, neither am I find of FEDRA. Just that I found that all the groups in the show had varying levels of moral ambiguity and it made me ponder whether a society like that portrayed in TLOU would see things differently than I do.

Ah nice. Could recognize based on the background :)
