You can't find someone to do a job? Then you need to compete on wage with other companies to bring someone in. Or, you know, raise your salary for local employees.
- winstonp 12d agothe salary weighted lottery today is a good step in the right direction IMO.
- lokar 12d agoA simple stack rank and cut has the problem of where to draw the line. Also, how to value pre-ipo stock There are other good options as well (an auction, etc). They all have problems, but there are mitigations. It could be vastly improved even if it’s not perfect. It’s just the will to do it.
- schnitzelstoat 12d agoBut at the moment there are quotas right? So it's basically the same - there are N visas to give out so you rank by salary and pick the top N.

- triceratops 12d agoMaybe that's ok? It would raise pay in other industries.
- lokar 12d agoI doubt it. Most are limited by the economics. They just don’t make as much per employee as software.
- triceratops 12d agoSomething about those industries would change. They might charge their customers more or train up more people or get more creative with technology. Or the market might decide it can do without that additional productivity from those companies.
