    His numbers in no way make him the bust of the decade. I used to compare Daniel Jones to Trevor Lawrence. I was wrong to DJ. Lawrence is sooooo sooo much worse. Lawrence is surrounded by weapons. SURROUNDED. He is not the guy.

    If browning played well the bengals would have been fine. They need to be on the phone right now trading for winston. That is the only chance they have to keep their season alive. Will they win? Probably not. But he will give the bengals a chance and keep their fans from burning the city down

    H1B

    Profit how? We can replace every single H1b with a US worker. Every single one. The record profits these companies have been making will just be less.

    H1B

    I have been a recruiter for years now and this is focking amazing. I have watched as the H1B system has been abused. How us workers are overlooked for h1b candidates that will literally lie to you and tell you they have every skill you could possibly want and do the job for cheaper than an Amercian because the average salary in india is like 4100 usd a year. When they come here they can get more money in 3 years undercutting US workers and go back with 30 years of pay. President Trump just made it a lot more expensive for companies to hire foreign workers through the H-1B program. The White House announced Friday that Trump signed a proclamation requiring employers to pay a hefty $100,000 fee for new H-1B visa applications, an enormous jump from the current $215 lottery registration fee. H-1B visas allow U.S. companies to hire foreign workers in fields that typically require technical expertise like IT, engineering, mathematics, or medicine. The program is capped at 65,000 new visas annually, plus an additional 20,000 for foreign graduates with advanced degrees from U.S. universities. The visas are awarded through a lottery system and typically last three years, though holders can extend them or apply for green cards. The administration’s new move is designed to crack down on what it calls widespread abuse of the program, which it blames for displacing American workers. According to the White House, the share of IT workers with H-1B visas has skyrocketed from 32% in 2003 to over 65% today, while unemployment among recent computer science graduates has hit 6.1%. Silicon Valley will undoubtedly be up in arms over the initiative. The restrictions take aim at a program that helped create some of the region’s biggest success stories. Elon Musk, Trump’s close ally for most of this year, initially worked in the U.S. on an H-1B after arriving as a student. In fact, Musk, taking issue with a perceived critic of the H-1B program in December on his platform X, tweeted to the individual that, “The reason I’m in America along with so many critical people who built SpaceX, Tesla and hundreds of other companies that made America strong is because of H1B. Take a big step back and F*** YOURSELF in the face. I will go to war on this issue the likes of which you cannot possibly comprehend.” Mike Krieger, the Instagram co-founder turned Chief Product Officer at AI giant Anthropic, is one of those aforementioned success stories. The Brazilian-born Stanford grad worked at the early instant messaging platform Meebo on an H-1B visa. Earlier this year, the National Venture Capital Association argued in a letter to the National Science Foundation that, “Raising the annual cap of H-1B visas issued each year to educated and highly skilled immigrants who work in jobs that require a substantial amount of technical and specialized training is fundamental to generating more successful immigrant-founded companies.” The NVCA noted that while “H-1B visas are not ideal for immigrants who want to immediately found companies in the U.S., they are still critically important for the success of immigrant founded companies because they provide valuable work experience and widen the pipeline of potential immigrant startup founders.” (The H-1B’s employer-employee requirement makes it practically impossible for founders to obtain directly, forcing them to spend years tied to employers before getting green cards that let them launch their own startups. When Krieger wanted to co-found Instagram in 2010, transferring his visa took months, and he has said he almost abandoned the startup before it launched due to those complications.) On Friday, tech leaders on X were already warning about talent fleeing to more welcoming countries. In the meantime, in its proclamation on Friday, the Trump administration went full bore on its criticism of the program, pointing to specific companies that approved thousands of H-1B workers while simultaneously laying off American employees. According to the White House fact sheet, one unnamed company received approval for 5,189 H-1B workers this fiscal year while cutting roughly 16,000 U.S. jobs. The proclamation — which says it is partly rooted in an effort to “protect our national security” — includes wiggle room; case-by-case exemptions are possible if deemed in the national interest. It also directs the Labor Secretary to revise wage requirements to prevent undercutting American salaries.

    Npr is going out of its way to tell everyone that even though this guys partner was a man who is trans, there is no proof that is the reason why he killed kirk. Of course it is.

    I am not moved often by the deaths of celebs. I really have been by this one. I know it sounds crazy, but it really has hit me. This dude had a couple young kids. It makes me worry about saying anything to anyone about anything. I stopped showing any kind of political affiliation years ago because of the nutjobs out there. The last time I felt like this was when cobain killed himself. I was in shock like I am now. I really enjoyed watching him.

    In the minutes after the shooting, MSNBC anchors speculated it might have been a supporter’s gun accidentally discharging in celebration, with one commentator saying “we don’t know if this is a supporter shooting their gun off in celebration” That is some of the dumbest shitt I have ever heard.
