Hi everyone,I’m seeking guidance on how to transition from a Program Manager to a Product Manager role. Currently, I’m working as a Program Manager II at Amazon (recently promoted to L5).Is it advisable to apply directly for PM roles? If so, what steps should I take to prepare? Are there any specific PM courses or online master's programs you would recommend?Additionally, if anyone has made a similar transition, I would love to hear about your experience. TE-6.5 yrs; Program+ops manager-4 yrs

Hi there! What’s the best way for a Dreamer to get their citizenship? I’ve renewed my AB 540 multiple times and would like to get the ball rolling on my citizenship. The Biden Admin talked about providing a pathway to citizenship for Dreamers but because of the pandemic, they decided it wasn’t an important enough issue to discuss.

I wouldn't have nearly as many issues with conservative principles if they weren't so hypocritical in how they enact them.

I'm not opposed to lowering taxes, smaller government, and respecting individual rights, but they simultaneously support bailing out big businesses, expanding church and state, and massive deficit spending to pay for dumb wars and tax loopholes for hedge fund managers.

I'd rather see our government provide food, healthcare, and shelter than any of the above things.
