H1-Bs are usually paid MORE, not less, because of wage parity laws that have existed for DECADES. The application process has a 6 month delay just to determine the minimum wage that the government forces employers to pay.

Why would you want to work for a scamming company?

I hope she is white

Yes, they are. Immigrant visa = green card. Dual intent just means you are allowed to apply for a green card.

That is reference to people who have applied for asylum after having come in on a tourist visa. Technically their status is legal, because they have a pending application. This is an attempt to make their status illegal, so they can be deported.

Its only racism when you then go and invite white south africans in. And make statements like "Why cant we have more people come in from countries like Norway"

Thanks for the info. But the WSJ article is taking about green card appointments, not H1-Bs.

(a) The WSJ article is talking about "immigrant visas" a.k.a. green cards, not H1-Bs.

(b) Even if we are talking about H1-Bs, it takes someone in India 10-15 years of waiting in line to get a green card. If someone were to buy a house in the interim, it doesn't seem so irrational to me.

Its easy to blame the victim and say they should have known.

I wonder where Indian incompetence/lying falls on the Elon scale.

It is interesting to see most people lay the blame at the feet of developers.

The reality is that these are all business decisions:

1) Move to the cloud because the business likes the steady payout of subscriptions. Business customers love not having to hire IT teams and demand six 9s of uptime because it is someone else’s responsibility. But performance needs to just be acceptable to end users.

2) Customers refusing to upgrade on-premises software, that led to long maintenance cycles and endless patches

3) Developing once for the web vs. Multiple times for different platforms – each needing its own developers and testers.

No amount of expertise on the part of developers is going to address these fundamental forces.

Right! You are your body. Not just your mind.

Why do they all keep saying H1-B workers are underpaid? The government determines minimum pay for each application. My experience has been that this number is quite high.

Watch the thinly veiled homophobia emerge

Proving that all their jobs can now be outsourced to other countries for half the price. Thanks a lot.

At least they are not asking you to punch holes into cards

This is true only until insurance decides not to pay arbitrarily. In my case I was stuck with a $112k bill. Hospital offered 50% self pay discount. Now what?

This solution has no street cred

No. Functionality first. Optimization later.

I want to be able to control flow and temperature separately.

Middle managers will be needed more, not less.

Tesla has 99k employees

How is this related to currency?

Used cars are so expensive that it makes sense to spend a bit more and buy new.

It is a mistake to adopt any agile process when the management does not have what they call the agile mindset. Both the words "downwards" and "micromanagement" are already warning signs that the company will do better with a different process.

Daily stand-ups and scrum events work very well when used as a self organizing tool for the scrum team. Micromanagers are not invited. And neither are managers. (I am saying this as a manager myself.) This is what causes the process to breakdown.

Is being paid hundreds of thousands of dollars plus stocks and bonuses not enough of a reason to show up at work?

I dont believe people have many complaints when it comes to the usability of Apple hardware. Touchbar excluded of course. And that keyboard.

LOL. Right

It is a luxury brand in the US. Every tech person that has made it would never buy anything but Apple. Yes, things like battery life are great. But if you are seen working at a coffee shop, there is a 100% guarantee of a that glowing apple logo on your laptop.
