You only really need to have tabs when there isn't an easy way to switch between windows.
Don't get me wrong, I am all for tabs, but there is an even easier way to switch between all windows of the current application in OSX, Cmd-` cycles through them.
This may be common knowledge, I just thought I'd point it out for completeness...
And guess what, if tech jobs paid more, more graduates would go into tech jobs! What a concept.
Yes, what a concept. I realize that that's exactly the spirit that drives many people to run, not walk, wherever the money is. When will employers finally realize that quality beats quantity? Just because you make the big investment in an education that lands you a job in the currently favoured industry does not mean that you are meant for it. There is something to be said for "naturals". The definition of "natural" in this case is somebody who knew they wanted to work in a field _before_ it was en vogue.
The entire point of H1-B visas is cheaper labor
I'd like to believe that this is not the point of the H1B visas. Especially in the current economic circumstances it would not make much business sense for companies to keep H1B workers around, people who were hired years ago when salaries where higher (demand was high) and are still paid that much. If hiring those people years ago was just a matter of "cheap labor", business sense would demand firing them and replacing them with domestic workers who can now be hired for much less, since salaries have fallen.
I still believe that qualifications play the more important role in the decision to hire a foreign worker and sponsoring her/his H1B.
DISCLAIMER: Yes, I am an H1B holder, that obviously makes me the opposite of a neutral observer.
