This is a common argument, but for some reason nobody follows up on that to say: let's not make H1Bs depend on the company. Say, let's give them a 1-year grace period to find jobs if they decide to switch jobs. It's actually the opposite. The 60-day grace period is being challenged. Maybe some people want this reason to exist, compared to other reasons for hiring a foreign workforce.

You're muddling the line between democracy and dictatorship.
In a democracy if you control all the votes of people you should be able to make changes in the government that the incumbent may not want. You can't do this in Iran.
Re:Health Insurance Costs for Businesses to Rise by Most in 15 Years

I wonder why people focus so much on insurance companies, given their relatively small profit margins. The more glaring issue seems to be provider costs, which are several times higher than comparable services in other countries, with little variance. Are we suffering from a shortage of medical schools? Or from a lack of competition among medical device manufacturers?

After all the death threats over censoring/not censoring content, it’s no surprise. Running a social media is messy as hell.

It's too ambitious if it's harming the doing.

This is incompetent use of AI and the news related to it are becoming tiring. The result is that whenever I talk to some people outside the tech circle they just undeniably believe that AI will never be commonplace in high stakes situations, which is just a rapidly moving bar.
