Yes, probably, however, an O Visa requires the recipient to be working in the USA upon receipt, it's not meant for tourism for business or pleasure (including tech conferences).
This is incorrect; you can indeed get Informed Delivery for [at least some] P O Boxes, postal employees don't know how to do it, but if you change the address on your Credit Card to be the P O Box, and then try authenticating using that card, it passes fine. That's what I did for my own P O Box, for example (it failed the first time when my card was using my street address).
Sensify Security is a seed-stage Industrial IoT Security company working on Trust & RBAC solutions at the Edge of Industrial Operations.

Thank in advance! How easy is it for a French Citizen holding a DVM (Doctor of Veterinary Medicine - 5 year degree) to secure a H1B? Are there any other work visa classes they would qualify for?
There are more people in San Diego (~1.2M) than all of South Dakota (~800k). Even absent the context of replying to a comment about having moved to San Diego, I think it would be reasonable to assume that "SD" stands for San Diego instead of South Dakota.
Am I reading that document correctly? He had a clause for accelerated vesting upon termination and so vested 507885 shares immediately when they fired him in December (par. 36), and this suit is about the remaining 127386 "earn-out" shares that were dependent on hitting revenue targets? On the one hand that sucks and it sounds like he had a terrible time at Twilio; on the other hand he just got an extra 2.5 years' worth of stock without having to stick it out and is basically set up for life if he wants to be. Puts this in a slightly different light. (I have no connection to any of these people or companies, just interested in the story.)
It's common to have this sentiment, but it doesn't actually put anything in a different light, anymore than the fact that you're getting a salary of (say) $150,000/year makes your landord stealing your $5,000 deposit "in a different light". (If it looks completely unrelated to you, think about the deposit story from the point of view of someone who lives on $20/day).
I have not read the complaint, and have no knowledge of this case. But when you've been treated unfairly (in the legal sense), it is your right to seek compensation for that through the courts, and the fact that other agreements were honored (and put him in a good financial position) should not put anything in "a different light".
Absolutely - I'm not saying he shouldn't take action if he thinks he's entitled to that compensation. But I think most people coming to this thread with just the news article will be reading it more as "twilio acquired and fired so they could claw back promised equity" rather than "head of acquired company thinks twilio made it hard for him to hit revenue goals, affecting 1/6 of his equity compensation."
I think I've heard of them once, but what does Twilio bring to the table to enrich Authy? Plus, Authy is literally competing against Google Authenticator, which despite the name is open source and free to use. Authy is asking nearly 10 cents per auth: https://www.twilio.com/two-factor-authentication/pricing
The funny thing is that as and end user, I can use authy to replace my Google authenticator, since it also implements the same protocol. So I use it for all my 2fa codes, mainly so I can access it from places other than my phone if needs be. I wonder if authy has monetized my use case somehow (adverts most likely).
The price per auth was incredible when I priced it out once. It was going to be several hundred K per year just to support normal 2FA with it.
The other thing they advertise us 2FA for actions. So not just on login, but on actions. Imagine getting a 2F push notification that someone is transferring 5k out of your bank account, accept?
That also means the price isn't just logins, but could also be sensitive actions!
Just FYI, Google Authenticator is no longer open source. The last open source version was released 5 years ago.[0] TOTP is an open standard though, and can be implemented by anyone, such as Authy has done.
Other way around, Authy gets Twilio another channel to upsell telco services. $0.09/auth is fine if you cache it for 30 days/ever.
And why not Google Authenticator? Some people either want to avoid Google products or be more appealing to customers who want to avoid Google. I know of Authy since itch.io use them.
At first glance, his is too naive a conclusion. This isn't simply language-specific, it is further locale-specific in addition to simply the language, here's why:
Ahorita in Spanish (USA) means something else from Spanish (Nicaragua) for example. If a Greyhound bus driver were to use that word to indicate the bus is departing "Ahorita", I would assume that to mean the next 10-15 minutes whereas in Nicaragua, I would have no idea if it means 10 minutes, 30 minutes or even 60 minutes, so my follow-up question would be, "Do you mean 15 minutes or less?" To me, this is more a cultural thing, not a linguistic thing since in fact the language in use is the same, i.e. Spanish. As another example, "later" (EN-US) is not the same as in EN-IN.
Or maybe I'm missing the point of the research entirely ...
Funny, in Mexico we use a lot "Ahorita" too, which it's just the diminutive for "Ahora" ("Right Now" in English). The word is very ambiguous here, it can mean "Right now" or "In a few minutes/hours/days" or if used sarcastically "Never".
Edit: ohh my gosh I just remembered another case where it's used for past events:
No, you're talking about dialects. Both instances being Spanish-speaking, they're (according to this research) going to think of "how much time something takes" in a volumetric fashion, whereas English speakers tend to think of that more linearly.
The research suggests that the language you're using in a given context may control how you see that notion, in that context.
1 or 2 of my very nice people will be in the office upstairs to help with any questions during daytime. (the bathroom is shared on Mo, Wed, Fri during daytime)
In NYC its actually illegal to do a short term sublet of an entire apartment. So this is a common workaround so they can give you a short term sublet. They can claim that they just rented you some space from their office so they don't get fined for short term subletting. They can also tell you that the space is private (because by NYC standards it basically is private, you get desensitized to stuff like this when you live in close quarters with lots of people).
