> it can open the door to the immigration process via company sponsorship That's wrong and it's wrong that it worked for you. You should leave.

The workers are wrong, then. That is not the purpose of the H1B. Anyone who thinks it should lead to a green card should be barred from getting the visa.

That's an absurd comparison. The visa holder is not bonded and can return home at any time. The work visa system is obviously broken. Forcing employers to put a dollar value on these supposedly necessary visas goes pretty far to fixing

by 55acdda48ab5 10y ago
That's a horrible idea. The whole point of the visa is to service a specific job that was impossible to fill. It makes perfect sense that an H1-b holder should be forced to stay at only one job and not be allowed to compete on the wide

You probably have a warped view of a lot of these countries. A big part of Harare is a much nicer version of Beverly Hills, it just costs less than a tenth for that lifestyle.

What you describe is how big pieces of the mining and oil industry work already. It's not as daunting as you think to move things around and buy security in the poorer parts of the world. Getting smart people to come on contract to liv

If you don't need much of a workforce the main thing is to avoid taxes and regulation. These "guaranteed income" people want to steal your profits. The robot factories will be in Somalia or similar. Pay off the local lords at

Your comment here breaks two points in the HN guidelines. You don't like me. Ban the account. Don't pretend this about fairness and rules. The "flag" shadow deletion trick is skeezy as hell. This whole thing is a system

Making livable structures is not hard, geodesic or not. The problem is bums and druggies and petty crooks, as the article details. Figure out a way to banish them and we can live cheaply and peacefully.

Yeah, yeah, it was an ill considered link and too short a post. I've had three drinks. Shoot me. I stand by it. I don't care to re-summarize the important stuff. I dunno maybe this link is better: http://investmentwatch

Fanbois are downvoting me but this headline illustrates how Amazon operates. They pump the PR and press cycle to get a pop and work it for all it's worth for cash extraction to insiders. Their accounting practices are enron level egreg

Philly and Baltimore (and Maryland) also have ridiculous taxes. City wage taxes and business revenue (not profit) tax, and relatively high state taxes. You would have to be insane to locate your new business in the city of Philadelphia, for

Talking about lisp in 2016 is mostly just debating static vs. latent/dynamic typing. The lisp guys were talking up their advantages in the 80s/90s era of fortran and C and really bad c++, and I guess the really shitty original JVM

The following is a totally reasonable point that some SJW on this site deleted. I would like to know exactly on what grounds. ---- The one piece of actual research in this is about discrimination against "black sounding" names. In

You have a computer with servos and winches fly parafoil kites to generate power from wind. This is definitely the theoretically optimal answer. It's also very low capital intensity. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-qU

Your need to pipe in further solidifies my point. It's the totalitarian nature of the left. No dissent from the party line can be brooked. I am not a christian. I'd be fine with the koran or the bhagavad gita as a corpus. But inte

I'm not talking about /all. I'm talking about how, for example, on the C++ subreddit some lefties lost their shit and ruined a bunch of discussions because some guy innocently mentioned as an aside using the King James Bible

by 55acdda48ab5 10y ago
You actually can't. Lefty types show up in pretty much all the otherwise good topical sub-reddits and signal and get their upvotes. There will be some utterly irrelevant aside with Trump bashing, or whatever, on thread about single cyl

> the A-10 fleet as ground-piloted drones. This is just a super expensive and failure prone way to do what 100 year old artillery technology does. Site the enemy, call in artillery fire. Drone techno fetishism is a big problem right now.

by 55acdda48ab5 10y ago
The problem is that the CAS mission the A-10 performs is effectively impossible against any modern enemy with modern missile systems and manpads. The A-10 is for shooting up poor brown people we're messing with for no particular reason

I procrastinate a lot and will never stop because in so many cases it makes perfect sense and works out well. I can't tell you how many times it turned out I didn't even need to do something I was procrastinating on, or a far easi
