"Like when San Francisco ended merit-based admissions at its magnet high school and failure rates tripled"


I am fighting Back myself from 2 years! Do you know ? Are there anyone or is there in anyone who can I can contact especially all startup founders and all small business owners working in tech ?


Tell me more about this !


Not so much to tell: example: some company has been running for the past 20 years on some erp and things have been attached to it and built around it over that time: suddenly it stops working for no clear reason and the company basically is not functioning fully or at all, losing whatever amount per hour. The original lead dev is gone or (in a recent case) died years ago and there is not much documentation, no issue tracking or even version management (it's a little HN myth that non IT companies all use that stuff as well; they don't, including some IT/SaaS ones we encountered). We get asked to fix it and make it run again. Sometimes we get ask to figure out a plan to fix it long term as well.


I believe that they fired both American workers and h1b workers and they hired both American worker than h1b workers. You have to remember American population is small. Sanders is wrong here !


BS


"Among the 50 million employed college graduates ages 25 to 64 in 2019, 37% reported a bachelor’s degree in science or engineering but only 14% worked in a STEM occupation, according to the Census Bureau’s 2019 American Community Survey 1-year estimates.

This translates into less than a third (28%) of STEM-educated workers actually working in a STEM job."


Can you summarize the key points made in the book ?


The key point is that for most graduates in the USA, STEM is *not* a lifelong career.

Any "shortage" is due to the fact that most STEM workers are being discarded by middle age.

For most, the longevity of their STEM career is only slightly better than professional baseball --- with much longer hours and much less pay.


You worship Trump and Musk and now y'all crying! Lol! Americans deserve to be unemployed! Y'all worship false gods.SMH.


Hmm...


I’ve always liked the visas, I have always been in favor of the visas. That’s why we have them,” Trump said by phone, referring to the H-1B program, which permits companies to hire foreign workers in specialty occupations
