That's not true. As can be seen in a comment above, there are 2 candidates against H1-B.
The wacky Republican (Trump) and the wacky Democrat (Bernie Sanders).
The condition for H1B is that there isn't anyone local you can find in 30 days of advertising.
This "condition" is routinely bypassed, mostly by advertising ludicrous requirements that are impossible to meet.

It is a myth that H-1Bs are about obtaining skilled workers. Most of the H-1B personnel I have worked with don't have any actual skill. Some do have real skills, but they are the exception, not the rule.
H1B and similar laws such as this one are not about immigration. They are about importing what is effectively slave labor that have to work long hours for little money, for the same company, or risk getting deported.
Running out of charge in the middle of nowhere and having to get it towed back home
BTW, the emissions of the tow truck will be pretty high so it could be argued that electric vehicles do have "emissions"....
Trendnet router fared in our wireless testing. It's also the only router in this test to openly support the DD-WRT open source firmware (though builds are available for all of the others), which could seal the deal for many folks reading this. The other routers here do have support from the DD-WRT communnity as well, though they don't "officially" support it.
One would think OpenWRT would be similar, but it does not appear to be so as none of them show up in the list on OpenWRT's site.
The Phaeton was sold in the US when it was introduced. However, the sales of the $70K VW were not good so they decided to withdraw it from the US Market.
The phaeton was Ferdinand Piëch's pet project, who was VW AGs CEO at the time, and was part of an effort to take VW upscale as the currency conversion of Euros to Dollars (paying Euros to make cars sold for Dollars) was making it difficult to make a profit on mass market cars
I should also mention that Plastic SCM cab used as a client/server and/or a distributed SCM at the same time. To act as a distributed SCM, you install both the client and the server on your local PC. You can also have hybrid environments involving some PC connecting to a server ant others with local server that can sync with other server, such as the master one, similar to git.
Plastic SCM can also be setup to have Active Directory (windows) authentication (or LDAP or it's own user name/password file)
Plastic SCM can also be used as a git client and can push/pull changes to/from git as well as plastic servers
PlasticSCM (https://www.plasticscm.com/) is thebest version control system I have ever seen or used bar none. However it is a commercial product and is not open source. It does have one of the lowest costs when compared to other commercial VSC systems ($9.95/user/month)
I would *strongly* recommend staying as far away from Subversion as possible. This broken VCS is extremely likely to screw up your code if you ever try to have more than 1 version at a time (attempt to branch the code). Although, if you only ever have 1 main branch it will only screw up your code and conflict with itself some of the time.
I have not used git myself, but if you are looking for an open source solution, I would recommend git over subversion any day.
Where I work, we use Clearcase (which is *really* expensive and hard to maintain) and some teams have started to migrate to subversion. Some of the subversion projects are entering maintenance and I dread when someone attempts to merge code:(
I also use PlasticSCM and Subversion on other projects outside of my primary job. When using subversion, it often fails to check in files due to conflicts, and this is 1 person working in trunk. Oftentimes the only way to get subversion to work is to delete the working copy and start over. This has never happened since we switched to PlasticSCM.
malloc/free and "reference counting schemes" would be just as fast, if not faster than" garbage collection if they never actually free memory and just continually use all memory available and then halt the program to free everything only when the memory is exhausted, which is what garbage collection does.
Replace "flat earth" with "the earth is 6000 years old" and/or "evolution is a theory (which is wrong)" and/or "climate change doesn't exist". There are plenty of those around and I think some of them also believe in a flat earth!
Back in the day (60s,70s,80s) "The Cloud" was called "Timesharing" on Mainframes. "The cloud" does not eliminate infrastructure, it just moves it to another company that you pay fees to. There will always be IT pros "pulling all-nighters, swapping in hard drives or upgrading systems", but they will be working for the cloud hosting companies (and probably be offshore).
Also, chances are that companies with stable infrastructure needs that don't expand and contract all that much (which is most companies) would of saved money overall if they owned their own equipment instead of renting capacity from a cloud company. After all, the cloud company has to pay for all the same things *and* make a profit (often a very substantial profit), which will be reflected in their fees.
Yes, cyclists have the right to share the road, perhaps "blocking" a lane. However, those in my area that block the entire multi-lane road during rush hour are way beyond the pale!
If you had glanced at TFA, you would of realized that by flipping the middle seat and making the seats flip up when unoccupied like theatre seats that they can, and have, squeezed the seats together to eliminate the space between rows. This allows more rows of seats to be added in the same space.

All they have to do is give me all of their money and they won't have these problems anymore!
know better and refuse to do what they are asked unless it's done their way.
only because that other way won't work and/or is not maintainable
Well, if you really work 24x7, then you don't need the expensive housing, they are just saving you that expense!
What's not to like?

They are.
TFA answers that question for DD-WRT:

Why yes VW does sell bugs!

I once had one of our "web admins" argue this point with me, and he was serious!

How many of those DVDs are subject to age controls to play them, that would be a more appropriate comparison!

TFA: Iowans should figure out which roads “we really want to keep” and let the others “deteriorate and go away.”
I think they have already done that in Michigan
