It all started in 1955 with a misprint in a Colorado newspaper and a call to Col. Harry Shoup's secret military hotline. Shoup played along with the tiny voice who called, and a tradition was born. From the NPR archives.

Reading the news on AI startups and all the claims of high ARR. Always makes me wonder, what is their starting point for the ARR and how often do they adjust this?

I wish everyone in tech, as well as other fields with a lot of H1-B workers, would read this very clear argument for why the new $100k H1-B fee is a disaster for America. The author analyzes a recent paper quoted by the regime to argue that H1-Bs reduce the salaries of citizens.

A lot of people think that every international student admitted means one fewer spot for domestic students, when the opposite is more likely true - the tuition revenue international students bring allows public universities to provide substantial discounts to domestic students, improving access.

It’s an astute observation that MAGA have strayed so far from traditional American ideals that they can’t quote Lincoln or Reagan anymore.
In fact they have more in common with despotic regimes from the 19th & 20th century than American democracy. From United States to a divided country.

Conservatives have moved the goalposts on immigration: first only “illegal” immigration was bad, then low-skilled was unwanted but high-skilled valued. Now Trump makes clear they want none.
That will hurt Americans (many doctors are immigrants), but nothing trumps their goal of a white ethnostate.
