So it is a 200+ result now.

BJP contested 101 seats, with an amazing 90+% success rate as of now! This is even higher than in Maharashtra (BJP 89% success rate).

I spoke too soon on AIMIM. Now it seems they have more seats than INC. So it indeed seems that the green vote has deserted MGB.

Of course, our and American goals may not always coincide even in the China front. At the same time, while the primary Indian ambition is Viksit Bharat, elimination of poverty, achieving/exceeding the declared HDGs etc, India also realizes that it is all not possible without security, without peace...

The comparison with "1 in 25000" in 1990 is misleading. Back then, autism had just been recognized as a diagnosable/clinical condition. The "increasing rate" of autism diagnoses is mostly due to better diagnosis. Of course there is every reason to scientifically investigate "...

As terrible as the news is (for USA), but if it is an indication of things to come across the American academic ecosystem in the Trump's world, Indian institutions should treat this as an opportunity-- such as increase intake of PhD students across the board, especially in STEM in India.

Not going to change Maga crowd. Only thing that can change them is the economy. That too in a drastic way. MAGA crowd (and the liberal crowd) may or may not change, I think its mostly irrelevant. For the next federal legislative election (2026), it will be a mix of economic and "social" i...

I have seen a couple of videos of this Pavneet Singh guy and don’t know what to make of them.

The H1B program is operated by the goremint, not by companies. The goremint makes the rules. Again, you didn't read them and hence a useless discussion.

A_Gupta wrote: ↑21 Sep 2025 02:56 Exactly -- the H1B is used for cost savings which is not its intended design. Exactly what gaming the system is.

It's not used for cost savings. The statistics are there. You are either being disingenuous about this, or duped by hearsay/anecdotal information from disgruntled or entitled people.

KL Dubey

Dunno how much to rely on AI, but this is what it says in response to "If employers must pay H1-B workers at least the prevailing wage, then how do the Technology firms save on costs by firing American workers and hiring H1-Bs as replacements?" If you are going to cut and paste AI informa...

KL Dubey

If the law was followed, H1-Bs cannot lead to any cost savings. Gaming the system in some way is required to get cost savings. The employer could fire experienced workers and hire H1-Bs as lower experience, who would naturally command lower wages. But then they had better really be less experienced...

There are too many misconceptions about the H1B visa, including the misconception that is only for "high-paying" jobs. The H1B is for "specialty occupations", i.e. "high-skilled" jobs and not necessarily "high-paying" jobs. We know this is gamed by employers,...
