News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

This is not the experience I have with the SF tech scene. I moved to Canada from SF to raise a kid and even now have a lot of startups offering jobs on a TN visa or similar. There are days when I feel like taking the offer as the Canadian tech scene and opportunities are non existent.
These days? This is how spotify was found. Its same playbook. Steal everything and then do regulatory capture.

All currency is a proxy to labor. If labor collapses, currency collapses.
This is not true for post industrial society. Most of them had the second tier replacing the elites and becoming elites themselves.
Every time the upper class or middle class got threatened was followed by violent revolutions.
When are we getting CDOs with Nvidia GPUs as collateral as Nvidia envisions?

You assume this is talent. Thats not at all the case. Most are mediocre workers who came in as masters students and got OPT and h1b eventually with PERM.

The talented workers can always apply for the O1 and get approved

Approved I140 is almost standard across all companies. They abuse perm process for the MS->OPT->H1b pipeline and keep on extending

Does that change anything in the message being conveyed?
It seems like all the criticisms of Gen AI and LLM seems to concentrate on OpenAI and their products over products from anthropic and others. I am pretty sure that this faking of signature can be done by Gemini, claude as easily as chatgpt.

Really loved this approach. I want to ask what peps are you starting off with and how would this approach work competing with grey market ROU peps?

Also is there a way to contact you? I have some personal questions as a fellow pep user.
