On the contrary, I find justified text way easier to read and pleasing, as my eyes don't have to scan varying line lengths, but rather go along a fixed line length.

What fair or unfair advantages? Nobody is toxically gaslighting you. Just pointing out that your assertions are fact free xenophobia.

I don't think you are coming into this discussion with opinions based on facts because I do not believe you bothered searching for them. You already have preconceived ideas - US universities are running a gigantic coordinated conspirac

The total foreign STEM PhDs is 15,000 per year. Even if you add all of them together for the last decade, it won't even crack the top 50 largest places in the US. Your fact-free rants aside, what people forget is how few PhDs are there

Elucidate - your unfair advantages. Honestly at this point I am sick and tired of this dog-whistling nonsense. And when called out all of you losers act all innocent about it. That shtick worked years back, but it's just plain racist i

The updated version of the law would restrict this only to R1/R2 US universities. No foreign university, even Cambridge/Oxford would be eligible. See https://foreignaffairs.house.gov/index.cfm?a=Files.Serve&Fil

The US is. NSF plus DOE Office of Science plus NIH is over 50 billion dollars, of which easily a third is going for training internationals PhDs and postdocs.

And the countries that did not create it don't have a tech industry. Look at Europe - how many tech success stories are there?

I am a researcher at a national lab. I am pretty smart myself, and have worked with some exceptional people during my PhD and even now. Thing is, we have become so metrics and busy work obsessed that it's insane. Fully 75% of my time i

Why won't battery backed solar+wind be cheaper then too? It's already cheaper, and massive advancements are being made there too.

I will buy X, if I need X. And once I buy X, it's done. For example, I wanted a cordless drill last week. Did the "site:reddit.com" thing (I actually have been doing that almost subconsciously now, as Google results are all t

It's a great point you have made. I work technically as a data scientist, but my domain is scientific data. I have quite a few GitHub packages and get recruiter calls for data science jobs almost every week, with pretty generous sala

I am okay with self-identified employees rather than astroturfing. Nicks themselves have mentioned how Reddit attention helped them stay afloat, and how much of a boon it has been for PNW bootmakers. IMO this is a far better outcome than th

Depends on subreddits. I love shoes for example, and /r/goodyearwelt is a really decent resource in general. /r/malefashionadvice and /r/rawdenim for fashion are pretty great too.

> That's not how any labor market works. Your salary isn't determined by how much debt you rack up. True, or else college dropouts from a private school will have higher incomes than a state school undergrad, which is not the c

Yes. And currently it has also split into several sub-languages almost now. Numpy/Scipy is one, then there is enterprise Python, and the ML Python has its own conventions. That's how big and complex Python today is.

Modi loses state elections even after vigorous campaigning - Bengal 2021 is a great example. So Modi is not infallible. Not only that, he doesn't even get 50% of national votes, but wins on the basis of first past the post system. The

Tangential to this is I have observed one thing. I work in science, and a lot of our hires are fresh PhDs/postdocs. The best question to ask is the limitations of their approach. The more thoroughly they have worked on it, the better t

Sadly, I could upvote you only once. You have hit the nail on the head.

Yes. This is the key. Provider jobs have disappeared for a huge section. Also, implicit in this is that the man is the higher earner. Rage against it, but a man's attractiveness to a woman does notch up a lot of points if they are th

Being a provider was the purpose, not is. And I acknowledge that it's restrictive.

by N1H1L 5y ago
The purpose of a man's life is meaning and the search for it. For years, centuries even, this meaning in a man's life was provided by being a provider. This order was enforced through society. And you can use society and religion

Hiring people, which was honestly the most routine thing, has become insanely political. If an organization's employee list becomes a political point, then how are you going to escape that?

This is not an unrelated issue. You want chip fabs in the US. Great. Who is going to run them if Executive Orders prevent you from hiring fab scientists? Why is that "unrelated"? Chip fabs don't run themselves.

Countries with manufacturing under government control haven't fared that well. The US has led a lot of fab investments over the past 1-2 years, with at least seven new fabs under construction from Intel and TSMC. The America Competes A
