its not meant to make them stop using it. its meant to stop them from using it to replace there entire workforce with them. if someone is Reilly talented and worth the money there gonna have to pay for it. otherwise hire local.

How, someone will find a way to pay $100,000 to make half what a U.S. software developer makes. Life finds a way. Will this eliminate abuse, or move money around.

Yes, but that waiver is only worth it for an individual that truly is exceptional. For the more common skilled engineer or scientist the waiver is not worth it

You're looking at it ass backing fuckwards, not what premium a company would pay for a cheap engineer or scientist, but what premium a cheap engineer or scientist would pay for an American engineer or scientist job. They'll still come here, take additional debt, but buy the house without a pool, maybe drive a Corola a few years.

This is a blatant cash grab. Sooner you realize that the sooner you can stop the mental gymnastics of pretending this fixes anything and move on to the mental circus of pretending this is a brilliant 4d cash grab, that will restore science funding.. err uhh lower our grocery bills, or.. fuck, it's just going to go to like Peter Thiel or some kid named Big Balls isn't it.

Dude we know you don't even have a theory of how this is supposed to work. This is a money grab and won't change how the system works. The money will 100% not go to a good cause. H-1B workers will still be exploited once they get here after Trump takes his cut, and it will not lower your groceries, your rent, your gas or pay one dime of federal debt. It will probably be invested in AI data centers and justify even more H-1B workers. Because the goal is to help a few people get rich, not fix anything.

Propane tanks / gas bottles are easy to reuse and recycle, but chucking them in a blue bin and dumping them into a truck isn't safe, the logo on the truck doesn't magically make them less combustible.

I think that's the deal here, deposit on disposable vapes keeps them coming back to a place that handles high density batteries in a safer way.

Not even that, she was talking about admissions exams? When you stop filtering out people that aren't great at math you get more people that are less than great at math, and I don't think that says much about them though because you just changed the filter.

Anyway I'm actually impressed there's like five whole people that read half of the summary, that's something.

Do you blame the students, do you blame the teachers, or the curriculum, where is the blame to start?

They're your children. You should know better than anyone else how to motivate them to practice and learn. You should read to or with them, talk to them about current events at school or anywhere, practice math, show them how to keep physically active when they age out of playing games, and not be a dick about any of it. It sounds like your kids are smart, buy a little whiteboard and work through some interesting problems with them.

say something like "execute all homeless people, sterilize anyone who might be a bad parent, and put in prison people with X color skin, and anyone in this exact demographic and crime as well and terrorism, crime, addiction, theft, and assault will go down 90%!" It's not that simple

I think it's sad that once again we have a company that is providing a direct benefit to the world and they're worth only $30b when you have shitty AI companies that make the world a worse place that are worth many times that.

You're asking for vaccines to be seen as more profitable, to justify pharmaceutical company valuations higher than __ only__ thirty billion dollars. You mean like why don't we pay more?

Shouldn't you be upset at spending levels on research, for things that benefit the entire world, and not their market value? You can hate AI, and it can be overvalued, but... why medicine doesn't cost more?

Inflammation increases the risk of cancer, and sugar increases inflammation, so it's not too surprising.

Is RFK just handing out free brain worms? You can't connect those dots without going through some kind of metabolic damage. Saying sugar gave you fatty liver disease is like saying gasoline gave you a speeding ticket.

If post war sugar rationing could be linked to declines in obesity or conditions actually linked to inflammation, why isn't THAT the story. Too much woo here, sorry, I gotta take it from my elderly partners and I'm sick of it. So stress causes inflammation, inflammation cancer, you and my parents cause cancer. AI says that's called casual laundering, don't do it, it's dumb.

You're mixing some timelines. The Desantis spat was over Disney supporting their LGBTQ workforce over the book ban stuff and rhetoric during his presidential bid. Desantis didn't make it, wah wahhhh. Disney still supports people who are really into princesses and pirates and dress up, so...

They literally just renamed DEI, to something like belonging, inclusion and talent. As was predicted, because nobody could define what DEI was or why they hated it.

But really the opinion crap on their channel, and their whole internet operation are the main things people actually complain about.

Fox News Radio dude almost seemed to go out of his way to embarrass Rush Limbaugh in the middle of his segments. Or it just worked out that way, Rush starts with the day's NYT or WaPo headlines, does his schtick, news guy comes on for up to the minute updates on the same events, since reality has a bias against weird conservative narratives it was just funny. Every day for weeks sometimes. I still really respect some part of Fox News.
