Clearly many of these people are dead inside. Seriously, if you don't give a shit about your neighbors you're just dead inside. Posting may be beside the point because a corpse can't read it.
I'm not going to post my neighbor's names, but on the block I live, everyone had kids around the same age and we all hang out together with the kids running up and down the front lawns. We regularly congregate on a driveway and have some drinks. Yes I do know the name of everyone on my block and what their interests are. That's what a community is.
Well where I live, all the kids of the block played together and all the parents hung out. If you want to live in an area where everyone is dead inside then I can't stop you but don't push it on me.
The problem is, the entire real estate market depends on having some stability in what to expect from any given residential area. How do you even place a value a house if it's neighbors might have a loud party every night?
So the government shouldn't be preventing someone from building a smelter plant next to the house you invested in, thus making it worthless? As long as you have a place to live right?
The failure to understand why people don't want a different stranger living next to them every week is a sure sign that our society is breaking down. You can only have a functional society if people have some sort of empathy for people.
Ask most neighbors of air bnb rentals how they feel about having a different stranger live next to them every few days. Residential areas are created so that people can be part of a community that shares a common interest in the quality of living in that place. Even complaining to the police won't deter an air bnb resident because they know they will be gone soon.
What matters is the attitude of businesses to take on additional workers. At one time more profit required more people. As the inventions you mentioned arrived, it meant less and less. Automation is the death knell.
That's why they created the global economy. So the wealthy wouldn't need to be inconvenienced by this inevitable crash. They can keep on peddling their wares and buying what they need by countries that haven't treated their citizens quite so well over the ages.
I don't agree that a flying car has to also drive on the ground. I think the general idea of a flying car is something that is affordable by more families and as easy to use as a car. A helicopter is omitted from that because it is expensive, requires the knowledge of an airline pilot, and can obviously not be driven by the average person. I think more like the cars in the Jetsons.
When a company says that no one wants to move, I instantly wonder how hard they tried. Did they recruit at colleges in other areas? Did they offer a bonus to move? Do they pay moving expenses? Do they assist with finding housing in the new location? Do they try remote collaboration solutions? If the answer is no to any of these, then a company has not done everything in their power to look for people. If they have done all of this and still can't find someone then yes, they should apply for an H1-B.
But that's fine The problem is that companies aren't forced to try to find someone else in the country and they aren't. Companies should be forced to try to make remote employees work and they aren't. THEN they should look to outside nations.
Every company in every industry has to deal with these issues yet tech companies get a pass. I fail to see how my comment I'd non-sequitor. If they can't take the heat...
Right now as a parent in technology I wouldn't want my kids in it even if they were interested. Back when I went in everyone was telling me that technology was so important everyone would need me to work for them. It didn't pan out that way. Tech companies got all kinds of ways around a fair job market. My kids are going into another industry that treats their workers better and must participate in a fair market.
And then they complain when some other company takes their talent. So it is a double edged sword for them. Congregating in Silicon Valley is just stupid and small thinking.
Well, you reap what you sow, I can't say it any other way. Yes rural areas have trouble with doctors, that's why there are recruitment drives. Tech companies can do the same.
So if that's the case then all kinds of high school students must be going into technology and we don't need the H1-B program at all. If not enough students are available for them then they need to make things better. There is no middle ground.

Ok so zoning laws are ok! So this is all about whether it works for you or not. Man you're an asshole.

And their websites have square corners. Surely someone has patented that.

Your making it sound like there were 8 employees affected by the cases I mentioned when in fact the number is in the hundreds.
Every company in every industry has to deal with these issues yet tech companies get a pass. I fail to see how my comment I'd non-sequitor. If they can't take the heat...

Yeah well, if business wasn't hard then everyone would have their own company.
The only reasonable conclusion to make is that they haven't been reading articles for that entire time. In which case they would be new here.
And then they complain when some other company takes their talent. So it is a double edged sword for them. Congregating in Silicon Valley is just stupid and small thinking.
I'm just talking about drawing people from one part of the US to another.
Well, you reap what you sow, I can't say it any other way. Yes rural areas have trouble with doctors, that's why there are recruitment drives. Tech companies can do the same.
Well I don't generally hear about them trying to hire people for 20-30% more so it's hard to say whether they would have to go "absurdly high".
So if that's the case then all kinds of high school students must be going into technology and we don't need the H1-B program at all. If not enough students are available for them then they need to make things better. There is no middle ground.
