Dude that's just not true. You need to submit almost every single detail about yourself before the lottery, including information on your passport. In fact this has dramatically decreased the duplicate entries to H1B lottery.

I am not surprised. People don't like the fact that they actually need to be competitive in skills to get a job. Had there been no H-1Bs, they could submit a resume and immediately get a job offer! No joke. I look around in my company,

My guess is that the comment means there is always some minor tweaks to tax laws, so that tax on certain products could change, and that may happen a few times a year. I don't think it means sales tax rate changes on all products a few

I think the "convenience fee" of online purchases is about the fact that if you want to buy a ticket days before showtime, you don't have to get a physical ticket at the box office in person. Not necessarily that I agree with

Funny I see this kind of misguided comments all the time. Their immigration policy is never only about illegal immigration. Do you actually think it is possible to tighten immigration policy without affecting H1B? If you need evidence, just

Money. Budget. This comes from New York government. They want to get the job "done" with as little money as possible. I vaguely remember a quote from a governor who says "The government should not be in the business of develo

You can. Most Linux users can't -- I say 90%, if not 99%. Most Linux users are just users, many of which don't know how to use tar or xargs without looking it up, very few have the technical knowledge and capability of figuring

The fact that there are only about 30 hackers in NYC says that people don't want to sign up. I am quite sure there are many more than 30 people who saw your post at least once and would be interested. There is something I don't se

It just feels a closed collaboration between Samsung and Google at this time. And there is too much unknown. Meta apparently isn't onboard, and they don't need to. Meta knows they can't rely on Google or trust Google, so they

It's not about pardoning, it's about what US bankruptcy trustee thinks is ok or not ok. Had this happen under Trump administration, I would assume that the trustee would not even allow such a deal to go ahead in the first place.
