Comment Re:Trump has expanded the high skill work visas (Score 2) 210

No, the H1-B program has not changed this year under Trump. The number of new visas issued annually remains capped at 65,000, plus an additional 20,000 for people with a masterâ(TM)s degree or higher.

Under Trump's first term, there was increased scrutiny and stricter enforcement on H1-B, leading to higher denial rates (24% vs. 6%) and more requests for evidence. Much of that was overturned in the courts, and the denial rate is back to normal.

Prior to 2004, H1-B numbers were legislatively higher (195,000).

Comment Re:It's DeFi! (Score 2) 102

Sorry I guess I'm going to have to ask a more specific question. Do you have an example of anybody owning a few million $ in bitcoin *exchanging ALL of it* for something that is not Bitcoin or another cryptocurrency or crypto asset. The fact that you can exchange a small amount of bitcoin for the equivalent amount of dollars does not prove anything.

There are examples of people exchanging their entire hold of hundreds of millions in gold or stocks, without the value of those commodities crashing. Would like proof this is the same for bitcoin.

Comment They replay the manufacturing emissions in months (Score 1) 188

With a wild twisting of words this author added "meaning the emissions were dumped up-front in China's coal plants" to try to make this sound bad.

ALL "manufacturing emissions" are "dumped up-front". There is not something special about China or using coal. And even with the 2x or more CO2 emissions of coal, a solar power panel replaces all that CO2 emission in just a few months, which is an awful lot better than a lot of other things that people claim are green.

Comment Re: Getting 7-8 years before installing Linux (Score 1) 21

Iâ(TM)m running Monterey on my 2015 MBP via OCLP. This was mostly so I could run a newer version Lightroom. I also have an external boot drive that I move between this MBP and an 2013 Mac Pro. The Mac Pro natively supports Monterey. I wasnâ(TM)t sure if OCLP would be happy with Ventura or newer in this configuration. Howâ(TM)s the performance of Ventura on your system?

I thought that's what the front page was. It keeps wasting space with things I'm not interested in, or actively dislike.
