I sponsored an employee and that's not how pay works, in fact you have to tell them how much they are making and you have to pay them your average. The example given by the US government is a level one software developer makes on average 110k but your company pays on average 115k then you have to pay 115K and it has to be submitted to the government. So the answer to whether H-1B workers are paid less is: they are legally required not to be, but the system relies on employer attestation first and enforcement second. Companies get caught abusing this when the get audited but H-1B laws require they be paid the same.

To think quantum computers at IBM in the 80's, its sad to think companies like IBM and Bell Labs are not the same companies they used to be, I mean the people working at those companies during the 20th century changed the world. Im glad they got this award as it is apparent they had a huge impact on security and quantum computing in general.

Stryker had over 200k systems remote wiped and 50TB of data stolen. Any system with a company MDM profile was wiped including phones. This demonstrates why you never use personal devices for work.

I have had proton as a paid customer for 8 years and it's been nothing but good. They keep adding features, it works, it's secure and I can have 15 emails that go to the sam inbox!

Proton VPN and drive was a nice addition, then they added a production suite and password manager honestly its 100% a great deal and they keep working hard to make more secured services.

I run a searXNG server so it searches multiple engines for me anonymously!

Or he never intended for it to stick around and used it a the biggest pump and dump ever to become the richest man in the world using subsidies all along the way to get there. Will be interesting to see how much stock Elon sells...

Everything is its own VM, you can run apps in secure environments and when you close them it get rid of them.

You can even create networking VM's have that connected to a VPN and then make your other VMs go through it for a secure connection. There is a lot you can do with it for privacy.

Also in windows pro you have windows sandbox, when you close the sandbox everything is deleted. It is a tool lots of people don't know Microsoft offers and it is a sandbox, I use it for testing all the time.
