How is this different to casadi ?

Citizens are always favored. It costs way more money, lawyers, time and paperwork to hire someone on a visa. HR hates it.

Still doesn't clarify what happens to people adjusting their status from F1 to H1B inside the US. Is that a new visa ?

What is the actual intent behind decimating NASA ? It's tiny compared to the defense budget and fairly high ROI in terms of maintaining US scientific leadership.

It's mostly for taste at this point, rather than safety. For a long time I used to drink right from the tap, now use a filter pitcher simply because it tastes better.

No law required ? Is Executive order sufficient to create new visa categories ?

Not disputing long term damage to the talent pool in the US, just making an observation that it won't be solved until the issue affects certain groups.

Issues with immigration will be fixed once Europeans start reporting difficulties obtaining visas and green cards. Until then it's business as usual.

Smart move. One typically needs to move jobs to get promoted anyways.

Spouses on H4 cannot work unless the primary H1B has an approved I-140 immigrant petition. It's not automatic.

This is a pretty niche acausal language, and is used extensively in Motorsports (F1, NASCAR) for real-time simulation on the driver simulator. The language spec is open source but …

Not surprised. For an AI first company, Google keyboard swipe behavior is atrociously bad.

Anyone know of a windows equivalent to BOLT ?

Seems light on data, mostly anecdotes

Is there a P2P file transfer program that doesn't require any Internet connection, even for establishing the handshake ?

One would think this is the entire point of Windows Pro and Enterprise, but apparently not.

The executive branch cannot make laws. The H1B program and green card numerical limits came to be from Congress passing laws and can only be changed by them passing new laws.

The number of residency slots (a legal requirement to be a doctor) is limited because it's funded by Medicare and only Congress can increase it. AMA (American Medical Association) …

This requires Congress to pass legislation, so cannot be done tomorrow . Legal immigration isn't a high priority in general and Congress hasn't moved on immigration in decades.

Staffing companies are extremely profitable and mostly operate on the edge of the law, exploiting visa workers for maximum profit. Any attempt by USCIS to regulate staffing agencie…

What are the potential applications here

Highly accurate dead reckoning basically. I wonder how it compares to the other method of mapping subterranean patterns and matching to them.

Labor is human capital, and in a free market, people should be free to deploy their human capital wherever they want to get maximum ROI.
