And you think you are? Please remember - for every so-so developer from Infosys and Co., there's a mediocre sore losers like yourself, who would get thrashed in a globally competit…

I've responded to similar articles in the past. I welcome this motion. Only thing that bothers me is the fact why it was not enforced earlier. I'm a H1B holder and I support this m…

Yes, yes and yes. Logged in after a long time to up vote on this. I think it takes 2-3 years for people to "get it." As you have mentioned it is indeed depressing. On the flip side…

At this rate, soon Uber will be a verb. Unfortunately, associated with all the wrong things. a la "...just don't uber it..."

Yes, absolutely yes. Why can't you have point system for US vs non-US schools, language skills, job history, offers, international/national/regional awards/publications, patents (o…

Michael: What do you think of when you hear the name, "Sudden Coffee"? George Michael: Coffee dressing, I think. But for some reason I don't want to drink it. Jokes aside, best wis…

I'd like to thank these brave women for coming out and speaking against these evils. I rarely use Uber but more importantly, I'm not interviewing/working for Uber ever. p.s. I've h…

India for East Indians, but not right away. It'll take continuous backlash against tech immigrant for a period of 4-8 years. Then you are going to witness new Silicon Valleys growi…

Dear policy makers and sections of HN, please maintain this unfavorable attitude towards immigrant tech workers for at least 4-8 years. Once this (unpleasant) feeling gets under ou…

I used to agree with hungrygs' response. It appears right in many ways until I put TN and E3 visa in perspective. They tuk-tuk-tur is apt.

Bodyshops like Infosys, TCS and Wipro should be banned or heavily regulated from exploiting the H1B visa. I don't support them. They don't help anyone but the shareholders of the c…

"...many tax-evaders and corrupt public officials were believed to have their wealth in real estate and gold."

"...But every second you spend learning about productivity is a second you aren’t, well, being productive..."

Like "...how is the world changing and what can I do about it? Only once you identify an environmental change and make sure you’re not late to market..." "...There are no formulas …
