These people (Loomer) have zero clue about H1B’s. You are paying people the prevailing wage and have to pay another 10-20k in legal fees. Right now a significant number of startups are offshoring software development to Eastern Europe, which is worse for the economy. Hiring smart engineers is difficult, especially after the last decade of DEI in high schools and colleges.
Loomer is correct, my experience with H1bs reflects what she is saying. In addition, Look at Canada which is basically turned into 🇮🇳 because of these open policies.
The tech industry is in a recession now. Startups and major corporations have accelerated outsourcing since the dot com bust.

FYI a patent does not have to work to be patented. It just has to be a patent on something that was not already patented. The vast majority of patents are not useful.

I myself have a patent. I did not commercialize it. Although it worked, it also could cause harm. That was a decision i made because i want it to improve life, not harm. I am sure many patents follow a similar decision process.


That’s very cool. Could you share what you invented with us?

On this beautiful Christmas morning, I hope all of you are unwrapping presents and drinking hot cocoa, or mimosas, or better yet bourbon (it’s 5 o’clock somewhere!). I found this about the pardons that Weekend at Bernies is issuing out, just in case you were looking for another reason to dislike this administration.

Nancy Mace is an American politician, author, and businesswoman who has been serving as the U.S. Representative for South Carolina's 1st congressional district since 2021. She is a member of the Republican Party. Below are some key points regarding her:
  • Political Career: Before her election to Congress, Mace served in the South Carolina House of Representatives from 2018 to 2020, representing the 99th district. Her tenure in the state house was marked by her advocacy for issues like transparency in government and fiscal responsibility.
  • Background: Mace comes from a politically active family; she is the daughter of Brigadier General Emory Mace, who served in the South Carolina National Guard. She has used her family name and military background to connect with voters concerned with national security and veterans' affairs.
  • Education: She graduated from The Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina, where she was part of the first class to include women. Her experience at The Citadel has been a significant part of her public persona, emphasizing themes of resilience and independence.
  • Authorship: Mace is also known for her work as an author. She has written a memoir titled "In the Company of Men: A Woman at The Citadel," which recounts her experiences as one of the first women to graduate from The Citadel. She's also authored other books on topics related to self-help and conservative politics.
  • Political Stance: Nancy Mace is known for her conservative stances on issues like gun rights, fiscal conservatism, and limited government. However, she has also shown a willingness to challenge her party on certain issues, which has sometimes put her at odds with more traditional Republican positions.
  • Recent Activities: Recent activities or statements from Nancy Mace, as of the latest information up to December 2024, might include her involvement in legislative efforts, public appearances, or statements on social media concerning current events, policy issues, or her positions on national and local matters. Given her active presence on social media and her engagement with her constituents, she often shares updates or reacts to contemporary political debates or legislative progress.
For the most current details regarding her activities or statements, especially in real-time or recent periods, checking her official social media accounts or official press releases would provide the most accurate and up-to-date information.
Was hoping for more personal like, loves RCGTIF, or something similar
