All those students, along with their talent and money and connections went _somewhere_ so that’s a shame for USA.

It just occurred to me that with those massive system files people use we’re basically reinventing expert systems of the past. Time is a flat circle, I suppose.

240k as an individual is a lot higher than top 10% of American incomes.

Why do you consider relying on navigation apps to be over dependency? Planning a route is basically an entirely useless skill for most people, and if they do need to for some odd reason, it’s pretty easy.

A lot of software licenses are free for academic use for what it’s worth.

The CAN bus, the network interface vehicle components use to communicate was, at least as of a few years ago, the source of basically infinite vulnerabilities. Add in over the air updates or worse, updated bluetooth or radio firmware and yo

A little of column A and a little of column B. There is prestige in getting a PhD. There is also access and unique networking opportunities. On the purely financial side, many top students work internships during the summers and make 40 or

The fat (insofar as it exists) is almost entirely not in mathematics PhD student funding. Compared to almost any activity a university could take, it is incredibly cheap to bring in mathematics PhD students.

It may be absurd, but people would blame Apple if they kept sensitive data in iCloud and it was stolen. I’m not even sure if it’s absurd, frankly.

I remember a few years ago my hardware security professor suggested we try to implement Rowhammer on GPU. I ended up doing something else, but it looks like someone got there: https://arxiv.org/abs/2507.08166

It’s legal corruption, but it’s still corruption. Just like gerrymandering it’s legal in America, but if it were happening in some Third World country the local news would have no qualms about calling it partisan corruption.

This looks like a good way to get put on a do-not-hire list at the company, or at least to have your resume trashed. No one wants to hire people that initiate contact by implicitly threatening them.

Do you honestly think the H-1B visa program is not predominantly used for hiring less expensive workers with fewer choices and negotiating leverage?
474.
by LPisGood 1y ago
> In virtually all cases, H1B hires are because there simply aren't any suitable American applicants with the necessary skills. I don’t believe that at all. I believe the opposite, in fact. How do we decide who is right?

Clearly companies place a dollar amount on how much they value having people work in country, otherwise they wouldn’t bring people over. I think this move makes it likely companies will hire more expensive domestic workers.

Do you mean reversed by future executive order answer that question is most likely, however, courts have shown a propensity to limit which executive orders can be undone by future presidents. For example, we saw this during Trump won with D

I think it is kind of a footnote. Many things this administration has done are illegal and struck down by the first lawsuit but later let stand by a friendly Supreme Court.

I think this is extremely tangential to the article, but is there any evidence that any mounting American demographic crisis has anything to do with abortion being overturned?

Hiring non-H1B visa workers would also save them 100k/worker.

Why did they not do that before, if it was feasible?
