  • Immigration is permanent residence. You can move somewhere not permanently, like on a temporary work visa - that is an expat. US/UK/Canada have a lot of treaty agreements with other countries, so a Canadian citizenship will essentially allow you into many countries more easily than those coming from a third world country. People from third world countries have to go through a more intensive visa process for temporary residence.

    Another reason expat applies generally is because generally an expat from the US does not renounce their US citizenship despite the tax implications due to the need/desire to return home. The US is one of the few countries that will tax a US citizen anywhere in the world, which I think leads to the increased use of the word expat.






  • Specifically, the Board and thus the CEO must maximize company VALUE not profit.

    There are other ways to increase company value that do not necessarily result in Q/Q / Y/Y profit increases.

    But in the 1970s you get a guy named Milton Friedman who comes along with the concept of shareholder value in a 1970 essay for The New York Times, entitled “A Friedman Doctrine: The Social Responsibility of Business Is to Increase Its Profits”.[5] In it, he argued that a company has no social responsibility to the public or society; its only responsibility is to its shareholders.

    So there’s been a lot of argument against it since esp as of late, but the economic hegemony still adheres to Friedman’s economic principles.







  • It’s already out. Not all phones will receive it. Those that do might not get it the same day pixels do.

    This update is not an android security release that patches drivers or system files, but the update to google play services and related apps.

    You are right in that it’s unlikely the pixels will get any further A14 security updates until after A15.
