RTFM: "'Foreign Tech Workers Are Avoiding Travel To the US'"
I would also hope that tourists avoid the United States. Tourism is an enshitification of a culture.

Your use of the term unwelcome in this case suggests differently. You suggest that immigrants *should* be welcomed and coddled, when in reality, they're only allowed in to lower wages.
"academia works"?
You think Academia ever accomplished anything at all?
Good. You're finally getting the picture that American crony Capitalism sucks rocks and considers immigrants to be barely better than slaves.
With millions of citizen tech workers laid off in the last 3 years, fewer foreign workers is only good news.
PLEASE avoid the United States. We're going through an existential cultural identity crisis right now, and don't need your third world kleptocracies, we have enough kleptocracy here.
Yep, this is the problem. DEI hires (be they conservative or liberal DEI, doesn't matter, when you are selecting people based on appearances instead of skills is my definition) won't know how to do this properly.
If you think being a CS RCG is bad, try being a 55 year old coder who spent the last 30 years honing the craft, only to be laid off into a market where those skills are just no longer needed at all.
They also didn't start delving into DEI madness in 2010...neglecting the engineering to chase the "diversity" ghost
Yep, I had writeups from those flame wars. They *REALLY* did not want it discussed. Governors Brown and Kotek continued the pay-to-play system, which is what lost Oregon the Ohio CHIPs foundry campus (before they realized that Biden wasn't going to pay out CHIPs act at all).
All one needs to see this is to be employed at Intel in June, when every single monitor becomes rainbows and the rainbow flag flies on campus every month.
Not to mention the millions spent on DEI hiring of marginal people based only on demographics.
He did, on the promise of the Biden CHIPs act money- the employees ballooned to 145,000 worldwide by October 2022.
Due to CHIPs act not coming through as planned, in December 2022 they started rounds of layoffs, which Lu Tan is continuing
Or if it's even still readable. Intel when retrieving the 486 tape-in for the Edison project had to bake the tapes in an oven to remove moisture, and then had ONE CHANCE at imaging the tape as it crumbled to dust going through the reader.
I agree. The functions provided by this bed do not require internet connectivity AT ALL, let alone some ridiculous cloud based architecture. $5000 is enough to include a $200 miniPC to monitor temp and positional sensors.
Yes, the job market is just that bad. But I'm trying to learn GenAI.
