If the h1bs are given access to the jobs (training and experience), then is it the American's fault that they are no longer considered "best"? Google (and friends) famously have teams composed of a single national origin (or

I'm an American that lives abroad. I have first-hand experience how other countries treat 'immigrants'. H1B is a temporary non-immigrant visa. I could never imagine myself buying a home in a country where I don't have pe

My interpretation is how the risks (statistics) of those job functions are more known, people choose to avoid them. But the people that are-the-statistic don't necessarily agree with or understand those statistics. For example, if OP i

My equities are highly concentrated in tech (which tends to either not pay dividends or prefers stock buy backs). The rest of my equities is VTI (~1% dividend) and VXUS (~2.3% dividends). When I say cash, I meant value stored in money marke

target date funds always confused me, b/c they don't account for the rest of my portfolio. My IRA/401(k) actually has close to 100% cash/bonds to minimize annual taxable impact and the rest of my portfolio is equities.

No need to tell. Just look at who can afford detached single family homes in tier1 cities: white-collar Dual-income and generational wealth families. Governments have only managed to slow, not stop or reverse this trend.

Compensation works only when the error is consistent. It does not solve macro tracking. This doesn't know if the overage is from fat, carbs or protein. Adjustments are very delayed and noisy. Your body weight fluctuates with water rete

I used to body build and I just don't understand how these AI calorie tracking tools are actually useful. For example, 1 tablespoon of oil is 120 calories and 14g of fat. Miscalculating 2 tablespoons per day for a month is 3600 calorie
