How did you guys feel about the Trump admin putting $100k tax on H1-B applications? I think its a good start. A lot of other VISA options being abused as well though with OPT and L1 etc...but this is a huge start.

---

Get ready for the US to fall way behind other countries in tech.

---

Do you ever get tired of not knowing *** you're talking about?

Obama and Biden did nothing to stem the flow of IT outsourcing and tech exploitation of the H-1B visa and similar programs that undercut workers. They figured they would never be out-maneuvered by the GOP on labor. A populist issue ripe for Trump. https://t.co/nNVRepYXP9

More on "sycasey doesn't know jack about the H1-B program"

Newly released gov't records show the vast majority of H-1Bs approvals are for entry & junior level jobs

83% at Wage Levels I & II
Way below market salaries

These jobs can and should be filled by unemployed & underemployed American graduates 👇👇👇https://t.co/QGNmXTXol1 pic.twitter.com/mqYjaZ1Rah

🚨 CORPORATE ABUSE OF THE H-1B VISA PROGRAM:

1. Fire American workers.
2. Blame it on “AI” or “tech advances.”
3. File thousands of visa petitions.
4. Underpay foreign workers in worse working conditions.

Whatever number they tell you the US has in out of work tech workers, you should probably triple or quadruple that number. Eventually they just stop looking for work and fall out of the count of unemployed. Tech companies were putting insane requirements for entry level positions, that's how they get away with saying "Ohh well we can't find americans for these jobs" Also they post them in really obscure places so the job ads aren't viewed. They do not want americans trying to even apply for these jobs.

He also still doesn't know how the unemployed are counted despite being in numerous discussions of it over several years on this board. I think stupid people used to be expected to have some humility for their stupidity. We let that go and, as a society, I think we should bring it back

some of us gained a lot of humility at Cal in the classroom and as a sports fan….some notsomuch.

- I worked at a tech company which required a minimum of a Masters degree in CS, when all that was needed, really, was basic programming and the ability to work long hours. The founders consulted with a law firm, put up fake, minimal ads online, did the 'basics', and hired 100% H1B applicants from a certain country.

Funny story. I helped spur the hiring of an intern from the Ivy League for the summer at this same company (start up) in the mid 90s. The intern was going to help write documentation and other various tasks. Our new web client (web app) had stagnated. I showed him once some basic items the web client needed - text wasn't left-justyfing, and we couldn't attach files from the web. This intern had taken only two programming classes. A few days later he delivered those two items while the unmotivated developer complained and slept.

- A friend worked at a high-end consulting firm, and he said H1B consultants were paid less than Americans and the HR department purposefully delayed turning in paperwork to prolong their H1B status (delay green card).

- Dr. Norman Matloff, an H1B expert, said that HR departments often weed out American applicants, giving department heads only H1B Visa applicants to interview.

- Another friend has a Masters in Library Science from Cal. Her ex husband went to a tech school for a few months back in the 90s, studied a couple programming languages, and landed a job programming. He's had a long well-paid career in tech, no college degree required.

- Another Cal friend worked in QA at a tech company. (QA sometimes has more female employees than in development (coding).) He was pushing 100K around early 00s. He was replaced by two Indian H1B workers (at half his salary), but would only get his bonus if he had video taped 'knowledge transfer' sessions, and much of his work the last few months was video taped.

You seem to take pleasure in his murder.

Antioch, with a population of 118,000, has become crime ridden, with a crime index of 7 (out of 100).

"Antioch, California recorded a record 16 homicides in 2024, the most since 2005 when the Antioch Police Department began providing crime statistics. This marks a significant increase from 2023, which had 10 homicides, and represents a two-decade high for the city."

Was it really necessary to confirm the perception of our current National character on the world stage this definitively? It all starts at the top.

Breaking: FBI Bombshell: 274 agents sent to Capitol for J6, many later complained they were political ‘pawns’ https://t.co/DJdZr2yjOa

— John Solomon (@jsolomonReports) September 26, 2025

---

Is this legit? If so holy ***** Let's see what the lefties here have to say about this

---

Look at the size of the crowd. It would be a total failure of law enforcement to not have officers and agents in the politically charged crowd to monitor events and be able to identify the "overly exuberant protesters".

---

Then why have we been hearing over and over that there wasn't any there?

---

Hearing over and over from who?

---

Are you just being dense to be dense?

---

No, that's a real question. Who said there were zero FBI agents on site?

---

Oh boy, okay.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/12/politics/justice-inspector-general-january-6-fbi-report

There's just a few…

---

Okay, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this is about whether or not there were undercover agents in the crowd BEFORE the riot started? Of course law enforcement would have showed up after and thus been "in the crowd." That's not the same as being undercover agents.

---

We've found out there were undercover agents in the crowd the whole time after being told there weren't.

---

Okay, where did we learn that?

---

Read above…

This story is being wildly misrepresented — these were not undercover agents embedded in the crowd. They were part of the multi-agency law enforcement response *after* the Capitol was attacked, as the documents themselves make clear. https://t.co/Ezw8VVTZue pic.twitter.com/49WogaUtDH

— Kyle Cheney (@kyledcheney) September 26, 2025

---

The semantics behind when they showed up isn't really the issue.

---

I think that "when they showed up" actually is pretty important here, since the MAGA conspiracy theory is that the FBI was on site from the start and actively creating the unrest, rather than just responding to it. If they only showed up after the fact, that pours a lot of cold water on that idea.

The Twitter reply you posted doesn't show any evidence of FBI undercover agents being on site before the riot started. It's still about complaints from agents who were deployed there afterward.

---

https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/fbi-embedded-275-plainclothes-agents-111534839.html

"One thing that we have learned, and this came on the tail end of the Biden administration, when their Department of Justice admitted that they had many, I mean, more than two dozen, paid informants embedded in the crowd,"

To me this reads as in the crowd, not arriving to control the crowd after but maybe I'm misreading or incorrect with that analysis

---

So now the goalpost has moved to paid informants instead of FBI agents.

---

No, you just can't stand to be wrong

We can just keep going back and forth sharing the same links over and over again. We will see what info comes out. If I'm wrong I'm wrong but that hasn't been proven to me yet

So as I was saying.

In other words, Kash Patel is forced to issue a statement that the fake “story” being pushed by Trump and right-wing media / influencers that these agents were “embedded in the crowd” is a lie. Except he calls it a “clarification.” pic.twitter.com/E4jFUpdbLb

Do you have any idea what mechanical or chemical process this plant will be using to produce drinking water from saline water?

Do you have any idea what the projected cost of producing this drinking water per gallon will be?

Many years ago, I was on the the UC Mechanical Engineering staff in Richmond, doing to research to improve the drinking water output of seawater processing plants, so I'm curious about the current cost of producing drinking water from saline water. PM me if you like. Thanks.
