APFS doesn’t “prefer” anything - it it will not change the bytes passed to NFC or NFD. The bytes passed for creation are stored as is ( HFS will store the NFD form on disk if you pass the NFC form to it). However APFS is normalization insensitive (if you create a NFC name on disk , you won’t be able to create the NFD version and you will be able to the name by both the NFC and NFD variants) just as HFS is - they both use different mechanisms to achieve normalization insensitivity.

USB4 is essentially a branding strategy around the USB C connector which with tunneling various standards (USB 3.2 , thunderbolt ) and speeds. Some are required and some are optional to get branded as USB4.

>It was a GC via marriage though, rules ma be different for employer sponsored GCs

Rules are indeed different for Employment based green cards. Marriage based green cards don't have a limit while the number of employment based Green cards that can be given out in a year is fixed ( in total and within that there is a 7% cap on how much each individual country can receive)

People stuck this way from India & China aren't even able to file for GC's. You can only file for a GC if your country's date is "current" (which is not the case for marriage based GC)

Their only legal basis to stay in the US is the H1-B which they can keep on renewing because they have an approved I-140. In my current situation, i have an approved immigrant petition and i will have to continue to get H1-Bs approved till i get current (which current projections are about 40-50 years). I've been in the US for a decade and it will be many many decades before i can remove the dependence on the H1.

The math is simple - there are about 400K Indians with approved immigrant petitions. And across 2 categories the maximum number of green cards that Indians can receive in a year is about ~6K. Each petition is roughly 2 green cards

So if an Indian gets an immigrant visa approved today in 2020 , they're looking at wait of 800/6 (133) years even be able to file for a green card.

i love how everyone’s idea of what Steve Jobs would do is what they would they would like to see happen :-)

HFS+ sparse files - now that’s a contradiction in terms.

Space shared APFS volumes inside a container give you the “table partitioning” you want. You can even set them up to have different case sensitivity options. All your dev work in a case sensitive volume for instance and Adobe software on a case insensitive volume on the same space shared container.

Well, APFS is much better suited to this kind of workflow. Create a space shared logical volume inside your container and turn spotlight off on that particular volume (and if you’d like, make that volume case sensitive ). There’s no need to separate that out on a diskimage
