Half the country doesn't believe in science and that's where most of the work is. That's why you need high-skilled immigrants. But companies like TCS and Infosys do take away jobs from Americans.

Also, got this when I gave it the word 'Naval'. “If you’re risks aren’t totally unknown, they’re not big enough. The only way to the biggest risk possible is the unknown unknown.”

"If we eliminate racism, the economy will crumble." “Trump makes me grateful that we got rid of Obama, and not the other way around.” Some tweets generated by this.

Why would anyone pay tens of thousands of dollars to take a class at 3am and be at risk of not being able to come back into the country to finish their degree?

+1 to what you said. 18 years for me and no permanent residency in sight. I'd have been a citizen a few times over in any other country.

I started running barefoot recently. I have a hip injury that seems to flare up badly when I run with shoes. Running without shoes has me running slower and in turn putting less stress on my hip. I'm not sure if it's a good idea l

"And I say this as a former H1B." "unless they demonstrably are genius material." Just taking two of your sentences and trying to understand if you are genius material or were when you got your H1-B.

Sorry, that's just not correct. Microsoft or Google does not intentionally try to hire people at lower levels based on their immigration status. They do outsource some IT work to companies like Infosys or TCS which are Indian sweatshop

Sorry I disagree. The decision to make it a temporary visa has to be based on the employer's decision to continue their employment and not some politician's whim. Going by your logic, no one should be optimistic in life because th

I'm in this boat and my wife thinks I'm being fussy. The thought of cilantro wants to make me puke but no one ever seems to relate to it. The worst part is my native cuisine uses cilantro extensively.
