Google seems to have a problem with the caps lock key. The chromebook I have is from around 10 yrs ago. Where the caps lock key is, there is a 'search' key. I had to go into Settings somewhere to switch it to act like a caps lock button. Dear Google, leave the caps lock key alone!!
Go work remotely from Europe. It's cheaper than Mountain View
" a collection of galaxies that existed when the universe was only 5 billion years old."
So, a collection of galaxies from a long time ago and far, far away? Poor Alderaan...
man, where are my mod points? your reply is spot-on.
The PS3 had a DLNA player and you could have it connect to and play video from a DLNA server. The PS3 also had 'remote play' to a PSP where a PSP could connect to the PS3 and play music, video, games from it. I _think_, and my memory is fuzzy, but I think that with the PSP you could tell the PS3 to play back a video from the DLNA server and have it display on the PS3 (your main tv, not the psp). If that's right, then that would be prior art since that was functional around the 2006-ish timeframe.
People don't want coffee. They want morning dessert that has caffeine.
that's racist and non-inclusive. They're called H1Bs now
You'd think that would've been important given how it is used to address one another in the language. Someone who is older is addressed one way, vs. someone who is younger vs. someone who is the same age.
then the problem of 'excess headcount' takes care of itself without having to pay out PTO or severance.
so, you do realize they'll just remove the plug and have you charge via a wireless charging pad (that won't come with the phone and you'll pay extra for)?
Only a million? That's nothing. Pandemic is over. Stop being pussies and get back to your desk or we'll dock your pay. Tell ya what, we'll throw ya a super-spreader concert while we're at it to prove there's no more virus. Get back to clogging up the freeways, you serfs.

My wife and I are moving out of the Bay Area. Will rent out our house to some poor sucker whose company demands they come on-site every day. We called about 20 moving companies for quotes. All are booked for a solid month. All for people leaving the Bay Area for Texas, Florida, and North Carolina. So, we'll need to wait a month before we can get outta here.
I don't know a single person who can code well who is looking for a job. We've had requisitions open for months and we pay well. I have a req...backed developer...write good Java, know some basic SQL, have written a REST service...what most backend programmers do. Pay range is 150-200. We can't fill it and we're a major name. The candidates we get, including H1Bs, can't do basic Java, SQL 101, or when we find someone we like, they go somewhere else...that's either a more prestigious name (usually Google) or closer to whatever suburb they live in.
I've tried many times to get my buddies to join. They ultimately pick someplace with a shorter commute or whatever quirky criteria they set (like industry, project size, company size, etc)
I think you've just demonstrated that the pay range is not enough. Try _starting_ at 300k and see what kind of applicants you get. Your 'major name' may also be hurting you. It may have a bad reputation (even if you don't realize it). You may also want to take a closer look at your hiring process. Are you guys big fans of coding puzzles that have no relevance to actual, day-to-day work?
Put yourself into the shoes of your applicants: I gotta leave my comfy home and suburb to go on a lousy commute to a shithole, crime-filled city to go to work for a company with a reputation for abusing its employees for the same pay I could get at any other less abusive company that is closer by. You really have to make it worth their while.
In my area, I am sure many are abusing H1Bs, but we're using them to fill positions we cannot fill at a premium price...and even that's tough.
You may feel it is a premium price, but it clearly isn't. Not for the kind of applicant you want. The top end of your salary range is below what I would even consider.
So yeah, as much as it "feels right" to imagine that good American engineers are getting edged out for cheaper H1Bs, it's just not the case in the major tech towns.
Actually, i think that's exactly what you just demonstrated. You're not wiling to pay for good American engineers. You're barely willing to pay for mediocre engineers from just about anywhere else. What you're willing to pay is just not worth it to them.
Nothing is faster than the speed of light ... To prove this to yourself, try opening the refrigerator door before the light comes on.
