I am not sure why professors still think college is about education (as the author in this article who is a professor is assuming). And that students learn in the class. No - that is not what it is about. Most students in top tier universit

Have you read the main article? It has nothing to say about green card at all - literally no mention of green card. Please stop defending folks for defending sake. The OP can step in and do it themselves.

Literally, the person has provided no context here. Which makes me wonder what were the instincts behind them making this comment.

Personally, I think this is the right bill to support. H1-B and L-1 have become tools used by Indian outsourcing firms to inject cheap labor into US. Apart from taking away jobs from US citizens, this also has a negative side effect of incr

You don't get it. It is fine. Logic is hard sometimes.

What are the facts? That TSMC willingly and strategically made this move? The writing was on the wall on this one.

by product50 6y ago
What a useless comment. You have no explanation and are just relying on your ill conceived gut feeling, which has been clearly proving wrong, to say this doesn't make sense. Why should anyone trust you?

If you know anything about the geopolitics behind this, this was a forced move which TSMC wouldn't have otherwise done. If TSMC didn't do it, then US State Department would have funded Intel to produce their 5nm fabs here. So yeah

Yeah - just that FAANG don't hire people outside top cities. So your middle of desert point is misleading.

I think you are thinking about this too much. I know you would like to earn these big packages in Ohio. But honestly, what is more likely to happen is that companies will optimize for themselves too and if they are able to find good talent

Why don't you try living in Ohio and then demand $500k salaries which big-tech pays to software engineers and see if it works out?

You are right. I was reacting based on your first sentence. Sorry about that!

Google files 6.5k H1-B applications per yr which includes transfers ( https://www.myvisajobs.com/Reports/2019-H1B-Visa-Sponsor.asp... ). To assume all of this goes to new employees is misleading since Google has attritio

No - they were running a survey to figure out employee's interests in wfh permanently across US - but at the same time being very clear that the salary will be adjusted based on where they are.

by product50 6y ago
Lol - let us see. You must me dreaming if you are expecting no significant cost of living adjustments on salaries.

Yeah - but vast majority of GC applications will be from H1-B pool

Doesn't matter. An employee in Google London is paid lesser than the employee in Google SF. So while you can cry about injustices and rationality, salaries will likely be paid based on cost of living and even geography (based on London

It will be the opposite. People who are wfh from other cities will likely see their salaries adjusted based on their cost of living. SF overtime will get less heated as people move out, so it makes sense for the salary to reflect that too.

You are wrong that FAANG companies will pay the same salary as you make in SF if you are in a low cost state like Indiana. I have a friend at one of those companies and they were running a survey to gauge employee's keenness for perman

H1B and GC sponsorships come from the same pool. In other words, a Green Card application is sponsored for H1 candidates. You are double counting your numbers. I do agree that this expectation that one sitting in Ohio will command the same

Glad that you are able to figure out the shortcomings in your comments. Be constructive vs. generalizing a few negative examples and taking a defeatist attitude to things.

This is independent of opening the factory during COVID or not. By this logic, Tesla should never be allowed to open their factory - COVID or not. And that doesn't seem to be the county's position - by far.

The county will spin it like that but you don't know if the county's position right now is likely driven by Musk's insistence and "dare you take action" approach. The county has to save its face - so they will spin

Yeah - everything is fucked so why do anything? Lets just sit here and criticize everything. And that is the life we choose to live.

Read more about USDC and then come back. USDC is literally backed 1-1 with USD in a bank - by definition.

This is what leadership looks like. Rather than just saying that I warned the world and no one listened - and thus it is not my problem, he is actually reflecting that I could have done a lot more so that the world listened. I feel this is
