I disagree. Non-compete agreements severely disadvantage highly specialized professionals where there are only 2-3 employers in a specific area who can hire you for your skills. This reduces their leverage and allows companies to underpay t

As a counter-point, I would like to point out India's IT industry. When the IT outsourcing industry was booming and there was a serious programmer shortage, outsourcing firms such as Infosys, Cognizant, Tata would hire college graduate

Yes, there are many people like you (highly qualified, but can't get a green card due to nationality). I think people realize the situation and are making decisions accordingly. Those in tech fortunate enough to have made enough money

I believe the point here is some of these 4000 now have to entirely uproot their life by having to leave the country. The part that makes it tragic is that these people have no chance of getting a green card in their lifetime and have to be

It is important to note that this engineer is from India and has been legally in the US for 17 years and still on a temporary H1B visa (conveniently not mentioned in NYT) If this person was from any other country, he would have a green card

Anyone figured out how to use Altair with VSCode to plot in a separate window ? If I use matplotlib, I can use the show() method to plot in a separate window. I would love to have a similar thing for Altair. I'm fine if there's a
