Someone should try to bring justice back to the justice system.
So a lawyer in 1960 doing the same job as a lawyer in 2020 should be pai 50% more because iPods exist? Oh yes, the unsafe physical conditions of lawyers in 1960 were so much worse.
If one company has that need, many more do as well. Everyone involved benefits if the H1-B worker can find other employment in the same field. Movement benefits the marketplace.
I thought H1-B was a non-immigration visa. That so many people who get an H1-B end up changing to an imigration path doesn't change the H1-B.
It's not there to improve the country by giving a parallel "skilled worker" entry system. It's there to allow US companies to fill skills gaps temporarily, while the market responds to change and millions of Americans train themselves for that shortage.
That none of it works as intended doesn't mean that changes what was intended.
That's why the H1-B fee should be high enough to train an American for that job. Then, in 2 years, if that company won't hire from the trained pool, revoke their access to H1-B workers.
It's not up the the company to train the people. The government should be doing that (or at least providing for it, and letting The University of Phoenix provide the training at a 50% profit).
I've met someone who only hired people on temporary work visas. He then treats them like slaves, and requires overtime all the time, denies vacation requests, and gets more work from them than the would someone who asserted their basic human rights. An H1-B is worth more than an American because they aren't an American worker, thus can be more easily exploited. $100k gets you a near-slave, something you couldn't get out of a local.
Why won't the boomers take personal responsibility for the generation they raised? Sounds like we've found the problem. The inability for boomers to take, or teach, personal responsibility.
3D without glasses is usable in short-distance small-form applications, like the 3DS, but nobody has gone to market with a glasses-free living room application. The effect's "dynamic range" (if that's the term) is limited when the angle between the eyes decreases, and a small screen at short distance has a larger separation, making it usable. The mechanisms used in the 3DS can *never* work with a livingroom TV, though they will work at a CES booth, where you force people to look at a 55" screen at less than 6' away (blame it on the booth size, but it's deliberate to create a 3D effect that is impossible at the 10'+ regular viewing distance where 3D glasses work fine.
Ultra-D (your link) was announced at CES about a year ago, and still has 0 products for sale. They are "coming soon" but have no details of when to expect them.
Sbisa dining hall was one of the top rated food locations on the planet. Multiple patents on serving mass food came from there (or the tours were lies). The idea to stabilize warmed food by putting heat under a water bin, with food above that was invented there, then adopted world-wide.
Pizza and hamburgers made to order. A mix of fast food, short-order, and cafeteria, all in one dining hall.
But, if one wanted, one could stick to the vegetables and eat quite well, while healthfully. I dropped weight and gained muscle mass in college.
The streaming packages I've looked at don't blackout the local games. So you can watch the local games live. What sport package are you looking at that blocks local games?
My 55" LG 3D Plasma (about 7 years old) uses less power than my 46" LCD (Sharp, about 10 years old). So the complaints about Plasma always seem to be factually incorrect. I can't ever figure out why.
I'm saying that the TVs that have poor blacks have the same problem. LED TVs will get burn-in, and give you bad blacks on the way to that burn-in problem. CRTs will give you good blacks, and burn in. Plasma and OLED will give you good blacks and burn-in. The burn-in problem isn't any worse with the "true black" tech than the non. Plasma doesn't have as bad of a burn in problem as they did initially. My 8-year old plasma has no burn-in, and spends plenty of time on 4:3 broadcast TV. And no, I don't have "anti-burn-in" turned on. That turns the "black" to grey so that it wears at the same rate as the "used" portion.
As someone who worked extensively in a customer facing role for a consumer electronics retailer, I think you might be a little confused with what the term "most people" means.
As someone who has done the same thing, people know they should want a specific feature, but are generally clueless about it. They say they want 1080p or 4k because they've been told they should want that. But they just want a kick-ass TV at a cheap price.
When I went to Texas A&M, your entire IT department in a university you refuse to name was smaller than the IT department in a single computer lab. There were multiple people in the lab to deal with the constant problems with the computers. One full-time person per printer was not uncommon, though the belt-fed dot matrix printers were prone to jamming, and required a human to separate the printouts, and sort and deliver them. And that was on of a number of labs, and doesn't include the actual IT department, just counts what ends up being an extension of the help desk. Unless your IT department was highly automated, and does no project work, I find your assessment to be dubious.
The left has a bias or belief that problems are the fault of society, whereas the right tends to bias to the belief that problems are the fault of the individual.
That's what the right says. But tell me again how the right assigns terrorism to the individual criminals, and not the entire Islamic population? Broad religious and racial blame is laid by the right all the time. Personal responsibility is fine, so long as you don't have to take personal responsibility for improperly storing guns, or spewing pollutants, or anything like that.
The libertarian right believes in dictatorships as the only valid government. Every landowner is a dictator on their land, and there should be no "public" land. Though, they recognize the need for government, in that local people will work together to build roads and collectively pay for them (regardless of whether they are individually or collectively owned), but refuse to recognize this congress of people forming rules to be a government.
So I would just add that, I agree in the sense that, our society needs to spend more time acclimatising kids to "how the world works", as by nature, humans are both competitive and cooperative.
The biggest disconnect is that "how the world should work" and "how the world does work" are vastly different, and there's nobody trying to bring them together. Playing on the differences is why there is so much divisiveness in politics.
Also, starting at the federal level is the wrong level. The fed Senator can, at best, work to change H1-B practices (slow and lower probability). A state Senator can, at best, cut funding to the state school if they outsource work (more likely, and faster to do), effectively forcing the schools to hire locally.
Asking the wrong person the wrong question will get you the wrong answer 100% of the time.
Yeah, people say the same about LCD over Plasma. Yet my 720p plasma has had multiple people ask me if I had 4k. Bright, crisp and clear, people assume it has to be better than the "old" and "bad" plasma and 720. And the OLED phones weren't rated more highly than the LED phones.
I'd rather have 4k than OLED, unless the OLED comes with some more tangible benefits, like weight and power savings with that "better" screen. But for now, the cost penalty for OLED for a screen that's substantially similar to an LED or plasma isn't worth it (for most people, as evidenced by the sales numbers).
The tech looks to not have the drawbacks of LCD. The current implementations are in LCDs, but the tech can be used without LCD, just like you could use OLED behind LCDs, but it works better if you don't. QLED is the same, but the initial displays are using it to improve LCD, not as a direct display, like OLED, though it could be used as a direct display.
My first CRT showed burn-in within a year (in the early '80s). I've seen LED LCDs with burn in within a similar time (especially things like bar and airport TVs that are always on, and on CNN or something else with a fixed banner in one place).
Plasma has true black, and hasn't had burn-in problems for anything made in the past 10 years. All screens have burn-in. but it's only a "problem" for the technology you like least. CRT's burn-in problems are worse than plasma, yet the number of complaints don't match the extent of the problem.
Just because you do not know them does not mean there are no differences
That the theoretical ideal of each has differences is unrelated to the retail experience. The thinnest LED TV is not far off the currently available OLED TVs. So should you pass up the thinnner, lighter LED TV because OLED is "thinner and lighter" despite being thicker and heaver than the LED TV next to it?
LED is closer to its theoretical ideal than OLED because OLED has other constraints, like cost, which has held back development.
