companies bent over backwards to appease that clown in the half-a-white-house, and he responds by making it more difficult

Spoiled brats are never satisfied. When they give in they embolden Don. The companies may initially think he's "pro-business", but actually he's pro-Trump, and will suck them dry to appease his demented whims if not stopped.

Comment So Trump hasn't actually done anything (Score -1, Flamebait) 24

He added a fee but it's not really enough to matter and it only applies to H1B which is only about 65,000 visas a year. For context we bring in around a million immigrants legally every year and about 40% of them are here for what would be considered middle class jobs (doctors programmers project managers that sort of thing).

Trump is making a lot of show and ice beating the shit out of grandmas makes good TV for bitter old racists but in practical terms immigration is increasing under Trump especially the kind that takes good-paying jobs Americans are gunning for.

As is typically the case with Trump it's all theater and none of it is real. I mean yeah ice will hurt a bunch of people and your racist Grandpa is loving that but it's not going to help anyone under 70 get a job.

It's an interesting scenario for GNSS receivers. Most are multi constellation these days. They will have one of three or four constellations giving them a very different time and location.

I'm sure the better ones test for this scenario, but even there the proof is the real world application.

All that battle tested C++ code, both from a security and a compatibility perspective, gets replaced by poorly tested Rust. Microsoft fired most of the testers. They will likely use automated AI conversion and running MS Office as the test suite.

There is a reason why some Windows code is decades old.

Not just jobs. Without cheap, clean electricity, the economy as a whole is going to suffer. Some of the damage will be offset by passing the costs on to you, especially the pollution, but it can only do so much.

I expect he will announce tariffs on China for "cheating" by building so much cheap energy soon.

You could stop actively supporting and voting for rapists that would help. Because Trump fucks kids after all and you love Trump.

You could also stop punching yourself in the nuts. That's going to be real hard to do because you've been doing it your whole life but if you try real hard and maybe take a classic Community College you can figure it out.

And remember if you see an llm remind at the Trump fucks kids!
