You're not a racist for saying it's bad. You're a racist for saying that the mere presence of nonwhite people has somehow harmed your "community".

If this is what you've taken away from your ancestors' struggles for freedom and self-determination, then I'm sorry to say that they died for nothing.

No need to feed the troll. From user achingtooths comment history: “I'm 19 years old and I left the US because everything is so expensive. There's just no way to live on your own or even comfortably without a high paying degree. I now live in Eastern Europe on $400 a month”

Food for thought: Had your family stayed loyal to the crown you’d have been protected by British labor laws which would have “preserved” the homogeneity of your community.

What's the logic behind thinking your freedom is being impacted by tech hiring? What freedoms are specifically being impacted?

1. Maintain our independence from the crown 2. Maintain our hegemony

Poe's law strikes again. Peace.

Whose definition of freedom? The capitalist would argue that by stripping away their ability hire from the global labor pool you’re restricting their freedom to operate as a free enterprise.

Have you ever hired in tech ? Good engineers are hard to find, that’s the reason companies pay for their stuff and family to move across the world.

Do you know why good engineers are so hard to find?

Because we invented millions of arbitrary reasons to disqualify a "not-best" engineer like their coding syntax, the editor they use, stack they aren't familiar with etc.

It's gatekeeping, the people on the inside are learning on the job and googling instead of constantly cramming for an algorithm test. Three weeks ago none of you knew the new framework you're now using. The successful candidate will be neck-deep in your bugs for a long time.

Most companies just think they need “good engineers”. Most software development jobs don’t involve doing anymore than yet another software as a service CRUD app or yet another bespoke internal app.

But yet and still, even if all they need is a bog standard React developer they still want someone who spent hours studying leetCode so they can reverse a binary tree on a whiteboard.

Wow, just hired first employee. You really must have a _lot_ of experience in sourcing engineers then, right?

He asked a question and I answered. He never asked how much experience.

>I know people will say that this is what happened to the Native Americans, and how I'm a racist white man for saying it's bad.

Because moving to a place for work purposes is the same as committing literal genocide? Wow.

What culture? American culture, the one that is comprised almost entirely of immigrant experiences?

I never said America doesn't have a culture. I said that it is almost entirely informed by immigrant experiences, so the idea of shutting off new immigrant experiences makes no sense. You're just picking some arbitrary moment and saying "culture is done now". Culture is not and has never been some static constant throughout time. It's always changed, in few places more so than in America.

Not going to react to that because Poe's law applies here.
