I have three different browsers running, and four instances of one of them, Each has on average four windows open.

Plus there is a bunch of other stuff running, and I only have spinning rust (Being old, my brain is not very fast).

Not sure how they will get any useable info out of my PC - other than it is probably not using Windows.

Europe is Dumping Windows as fast as it can - on security grounds. Europe does not have the American funding model, and many start-ups are individuals with no significant funding.

I have developed many Xilinx projects, and failed to develop many more because I could not afford the development software. Including military applications that could have run to very high volume. At that time, there were no realistic alternatives.

The good thing is hiring 9,000 H1Bs now could cost $900,000,000 in filing fees, and visas are weighted so that the highest wage H1Bs are given 4x the weight of the lowest wage H1Bs. I've noticed the number of H1B “entry-level openings" meaningfully decrease, which means it was never actually about talent "scarcity" and all about talent "cost". The H1B funnel is also getting a double whammy with AI consuming exactly the offshore-able, entry-level work the H-1B and offshore IT models were built around. The cost advantage that enabled both to work is at the point of economic unviability.
