Comment Human leak? (Score 1) 33

the nuclear power industry "has a remarkably skilled but quickly shrinking workforce tasked with keeping old reactors online and possibly starting up new ones to meet surging demand for electricity,"

Maybe stop harassing scientists and experts so that they don't flee overseas.

Comment Why do this? (Score 0) 82

Maybe I'm missing something here, but, couldn't they satisfy "reducing how long compromised or incorrectly issued certificates remain usable" by revoking the ones which are found to have been compromised? That data gets collected somewhere, right.

Isn't automatic renewal less than that with ACME automation, anyway? And how does ACME just 'go away' on systems which have been compromised?

For roughly $60 you can buy a RPi 3 model B+ with a power supply, heat sinks, case, and SD card. Load it up with pi-hole & unbound and you needn't worry about any of the big players like cloudflare blocking DNS you want and you can block as much DNS you don't want as Quad9 or more on your own. You don't even need the RPi. If you have an old laptop or PC laying around you can probably run it on that. Just remember to use BOTH pi-hole AND unbound and don't point pi-hole at Google or cloudflare or quad9 resolvers.

From my math, once you account for inflation, Silicon Valley (and broader tech industry) compensation has declined about 23-30% since 2000, relative to the national average. I know multiple companies where it's basically been flat since 2012, particularly for support roles - $90-100k then is only making $105-110k now in the same roles (with some of the same people, granted, but also new blood).

Considering how many foreigners from specific countries I see in places like Omaha, NE, I'm pretty sure it's not just a problem in Silicon Valley.

How was it not fraud?

H1B is/was intended for worker shortages: for roles you couldn't fill domestically. It was not supposed to decrease the wage of the role, but (in theory) keep it at parity. It was always a ruse, but that was the premise.

If you're firing people and then hiring others at a fraction of the pay, you're literally abusing it. You've applied under false premise. That's fraud.
