I was hoping for an M5 mini and Studio ahead of time, but I guess I'll have to wait a little longer.

Maybe by the time they sort it out there will be an M5 Ultra Mac Studio with a full terabyte of RAM.

I once had a Native American on one of my teams. That, and a lot of my fellow Brazilians here are at least partly of the original people.

Which came from Asia, through an ice bridge between Asia and North America a couple ice ages back, so, in the end, I guess we are all Africans.

Doing research prior to moving is extremely important.

At the time I moved to Ireland, I learned a vicious gang war was happening in the northern regions of Dublin. Up to April 2016, when I arrived, four (four!) people had been murdered in that unprecedented violent event.

Expecting a place the size of Europe or the US to be culturally homogeneous would be a huge mistake.

You still might need a resident visa.
