This story why you should never take your medical news from newspapers. Somewhere toward the end, it's results in cell cultures. Animal studies pending, and human studies way out. Lot of things work differently in live tissue compared

I had done this with a cheap windows tablet mounted on the wall in my old cubicle with Skype on auto-answer. So I could "pop-in" and people could come and talk to me. Somehow calling me from their own desk Skype was bigger task co

It's probably mostly people involved in tagging and transcribing. It's super labor intensive to get decent results when your AI is not as good as you advertise it as.

Not good. If you want high performance analog now there are basically two big players: ADI and TI. On Semi has a bit. I guess inevitable. The high-performance business is getting smaller in volume and consolidation allows prices to go up.

This is just a class-action lawyer rip-off. I wish someone would make a form-mail generator to object to the lawyer fees, or to exclude from the class.

Right, used to be that H-1B employees would eventually become permanent residents and start businesses. Myself included. Though it's getting harder. It took me 12 years. There are people in H-1B now who have no realistic chance of beco

The comp only matters if you can actually come to the US and have reasonable life, right? There are over 500,000 people living in the US for a decode or more and still waiting to get permanent residence. They're vulnerable to capriciou

Yep. This is already happening. As US becomes a less inviting destination for the best talent, the talent will find home elsewhere. This might be beginning of the end of US tech dominance.

The author left out another option. Run away from JS ecosystem when you can. Unfortunately, it's not possible for client-side code on the web.

I am in the same situation as you. My plan is to build the best personal growth organization that I can. Developers who value that and long-term growth should want to stick around. Developers who want something shiny can look elsewhere.
