I’ll be better off than you when that happens.

Improvements in efficiency may only be needed in build and runtime systems. You may still be able to write electron apps.

I’ve hit this realization at 30. But exactly this.

I think you can answer that by asking yourself another question: who at Harvard understands supply and demand?

It’s possible I’m a fish person, but not likely. And this adds nothing to the discussion.

I haven’t seen this specifically in our job postings. But we only hire H1bs to reduce cost.

I’m not the poster, but I’ve worked with literally hundreds of H1B workers directly, and while some were ~decent developers, the majority were not.

Even the decent developers had no special skills that would qualify them for an H1b visa, however.

With a 0% rate of qualified H1b recipients in my own experience, I can imagine that the “conference room” statement would be true.

Technical ability alone does not qualify one for an H1b visa. You need to be above and beyond what is able to be sourced in America. Specifically, the skills need to be so advanced that you cannot find any American workers to fill the job.

I imagine this test would discredit nearly every H1b software hire.

Well. There’s always bitbucket.

You can encode about 1 video per EC2 medium instance without losing >1:1 encoding speed. It’s horrendously expensive.

I find that all “best practices” are a lazy way to avoid justifying a position. Often the advice is almost always incorrect or situational, but the claim maker hasn’t done the work to understand why.

The rest of the country needs this.

When I was selling hundreds of items per month, I would hold any Spanish name for 48 hours. The majority of Spanish named buyers were committing fraud.
