If US students have achieved world domination, why are there such a high demand for H1-B Visa's?
Just because the US might have the best, there are obvious answers to why we have h1-b visas. First, there probably are not enough devs in the us to cover all our needs. Second, we are probably not cheaper than foreign educated people, at least at first. Since there's a massive shortage of dev talent, but probably not a massive shortage of IT, that explains why there's a trend of bringing in cheaper external people for it jobs. There are people outside the us who can be talented devs, but I think because their training is less (in general, not in all cases!) this makes it harder for them to succeed in more demanding dev jobs, but they can do fine in easier jobs.
Pence lies frequently. Recent example was pence trying to explain that Trump didn't lie when Trump claimed all living presidents supported him building the wall. Pence is an idiot who calls his wife mother, is afraid to sit in a room with women and lies flagerently. That lie didn't even pass the laugh test.
I'm not a right winger, if anything I'm a left winger. I'm just in favor of free speech, unless you threaten to hurt someone or say racist or sexist etc things.
There is WCG (wide color gamut) and two or three depending on how you look at it hdr schemes. Dolby vision and hdr10 and hdr10+. Don't buy a 4k tv without one or both of these. Looks like hdr10 will won, cause its cheaper. I just bought a 4k tcl roku tv with both schemes. It is awesome. I bought one that was too large though - first world problems.
Please everyone, don't buy 4k monitors. Buy a 4k 40" tv with 4:4:4 and 60p support. There's no reason to spend a ton of money on a special 4k monitor, that's 27" and the pixels are too small to see and you have to use a large font so you can read it.
The cynical view might be that the job of nasa is space exploration, manned and unmanned, along with putting jobs in the towns that powerful senators and reps represent. There might be a few people who are doing useless work but that's not true across the large group of researchers.
At the danger of distracting the conversation, yes, free speech should be supported. The exception to me is if that free speech is saying that someone should be killed or hurt, that's now useful or helpful. Saying you want to kill people who, hurt them, that's what we need to stop. Hopefully without giving myself away, I can say that I'm in a group that people openly said shouldn't be able to exist, vote, live, is a threat to the world, basically should die. Is there any purpose to allowing such speech? And I should say people in my group aren't advocating for anything other than to live our lives, and not be killed, destroyed, lose our voting rights, etc.
Better to have a light-weight single monolith that can move to various interesting places and perform science along the way.
No, because individual rovers cannot move very far or very fast. It takes them years to go a few kms.
It is much better to have a large number of small rovers distributed all around the planet in regions of varying geography.
Best rover is many powerful rovers. But think about how much overhead there is the heat shield and retro rockets. You can't have 60 small ones, cause the rocket overhead would be huge (ie each rover has a rocket and fuel and heatshield to slow down). There's not enough atmosphere to drop a bunch of parachutes at high altitude to distribute them. But maybe there's some possibility of having 2 of them in one landing or a small number.
No the us wasn't riddled with commie spies under every blanket. There were a few. Guess what, we had spies in Russia too. The one that really hurt maybe was the guy that gave the Russians lots of details on how to make nukes.
But there weren't spies who were changing our policies to somehow help the Russians. That's a ridiculous lie with no serious evidence - it would be incredible if it were true, but it's not. No one believed capitalism had reached the end, we just crushed the fascists, we were on top of the world. Also, here's something you could consider Mr Scaredy Pants - fear mongering with scare words like "he's a commie, or he's a liberal", those don't convince anyone.
Your comments are simply not connected to reality.
Republicans use taxes to prop up industries they like, such as defense related. Republicans right now raised spending on the military, cut taxes, and now want old and poor people to die if they get sick, but cutting social security and Medicare via cutting benefits. Ie they used tax policy to take away services for people and give them to the rich.
Your comment isn't based in reality. The Iran treaty meant there were limits on Iran along with inspections to verify them, just like with the Soviet Union. Now there is no limit and no inspections. Other countries still trade with them - how is it better now? That money was already theirs, we'd kept it since their revolution.
Good points - this is clearly a stupid decision. Someone thought they could improve the internet, they convinced themselves it was great. I used to work at google as a dev, and I assure you internally to google there was a bunch of complaining about this from devs. Every controversial thing they do gets a lot of negative pushback from the engineers, and sometimes they even pay attention.
I am here from Washington State and we already passed a net neutrality law ahead of Cali just like for weed, so we got that going for us. Maybe we should just get it over with and secede. There's no good reason to be against net neutrality. All the states for it are just sad. There's zero arguments for it: prices didn't go down, there's no new investment. We should declare it a utility. All the states that are the early harbingers are already there.
It's not socialists, they are about helping downtrodden and providing services. If anything it's more about a conservative vision of the world where there is not civil or privacy rights.
I am sure they pushed it to the limitlast week but compare q1 vs q2 to see the general direction. After q1 had a big final week everyone said there was no way they'd be able to keep that last week rate going but they did.

Crap, meant to say "does not mark up prices"
Starbucks does mark prices up 100s of percent over their competitors. In my area their prices are average, maybe cheap even
What can be lost is the banks records. Also records of paychecks, who paid bills. That hurts the poor more than me

I volunteer myself for this job of rover software engineer. I'll even take half my current pay :-)

Yes, the person who set us on that path and unnecessarily invaded Iraq was actually the good guy.
Republicans use taxes to prop up industries they like, such as defense related. Republicans right now raised spending on the military, cut taxes, and now want old and poor people to die if they get sick, but cutting social security and Medicare via cutting benefits. Ie they used tax policy to take away services for people and give them to the rich.
German and other banks loaned those countries money they couldn't pay for spending they couldn't afford. What should those banks have done?

Essential is the best because raw android, monthly updates, super fast hardware, long battery life. cheap because they didn't sell that many.
He is trump of course
It's not socialists, they are about helping downtrodden and providing services. If anything it's more about a conservative vision of the world where there is not civil or privacy rights.
Tesla doesn't have dealers, they can't ask themselves for money.
I do my best.
Compare q1 to q2 they look fine with a sustained improvement.
I am sure they pushed it to the limitlast week but compare q1 vs q2 to see the general direction. After q1 had a big final week everyone said there was no way they'd be able to keep that last week rate going but they did.
