Maybe that would motivate pharmaceutical companies to work on treatments that actually cure diabetes?

Seems like are breakthrough treatments we are getting over recent years is just to manage the sickness.

https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/431970-fb-clean-my-feeds-5-02 makes you realize how empty the Facebook actually is.

I use clean my feeds grease monkey script to hide it and only show my friends and groups I subscribed to and it makes it so easy to see how much of things that it shows is just their stuff and how dead the Facebook really is.

People are still think social media is social. They think that when they post something, all their friends will see it.

In reality what each person sees is determined by the feed algorithm. They can use all the things they know about you and present you content that will press your buttons and change your opinion about topics.

The biggest issue though is to have a proper content. This is where generative AI comes in and this is why owners of social media are so much invested in it.

They basically have platform like the old MSM, except all content is specifically tuned to every person.

Everyone is skeptical about this, and in the end they could be right, but we can’t deny that they are really trying.

I really hope that against all odds they somehow succeed.

You can easily make H1B work 80 hours a week, as they know the moment they are fired they’ll have to return to their home country.

Also while other professions might indeed have higher salaries under H1B, Software Engineering salary is way under the average.

Instead of choosing randomly, make companies bid with the salary offers and grant visa to the highest ones. I think that would solve a lot of problems with it.

I think H1B should be reformed. We should still have set limit, but instead of picking people randomly to grant visas, the employers should have a bidding war and only grant visas for the employees that will receive the highest compensation. This will once again promote experts and also ensures they will be paid their true worth.

Also the window to be able to find another job should be extended, to allow them to switch if they get exploited.

We are laughing but that probably was their agreement.

trump wants to not be in prison and wants money. The president title provides first, musk provides the 2nd. musk wants power.

That’s even more tame, currently he was banning MAGA people for not agreeing with his stance on H1B.

I think putin just showed him that he can do what happened in Russia in 1990 and 2000 and get richer from stealing from the country.

No, at least not during this period. If it was invented right now, or is guaranteed to be only controlled by oligarchs and ruin life of everyone else.

He would be fired by trump before this would happen. The reason it is still allowed is because of interest money and this administration is all about money. The only way I would see such ban happening would be banning those ads on TV while enabling them on social media.

Exactly, and we’re need to be extra careful when talking about any deal: https://youtu.be/MhpoNL1gZbw

For sleep apnea for example which only happens when you are asleep they only need you to be asleep and then they monitor when it happens then adjust air pressure etc and see if that helps.

Their equipment is much more precise than for example CPAP machine, so they get more exact data.

Judging from the lights, I think this zoo is in a casino.

You raised a very good point that I did not realize until now. In the past 8 years we actually stopped talking about politics to others, because it became so polarizing.

We absolutely need to talk about politics if we want to keep democracy. Hardliners likely won’t be converted, but at least, as you said, we should talk to like minded people.

Also, there’s indeed no point to worry about things outside of our control, and worry about things we can affect. Threat the things that happen, that we can’t control more as an obstacle that we have to deal with. Also support people who might have control and fight (governors, congress people, lawyers, judges, government employees, etc) so they know that aren’t doing it for nothing.
