   @deprecated_ii honestly I don't think this is cost related. You get better results with smaller teams and no Indians at all.
   
   The H1B in companies is some cargo cult shit, at least for real skilled work.
   
   Also false for low skill. There's nothing Indians can do that 17-19 White dudes can't do better.

     @MechaSilvio @deprecated_ii Maybe there are just huge companies where they have no real way to tract the productivity of their teams?
     
     Or, perhaps for the bottom 50% of certain fields, there isnt, so the h1b labor seems cheaper

     @MechaSilvio @deprecated_ii My guess is that this is the fault of HR. They got scammed by H1B that figured out how to hyper optimize for what they wanted to hear.

     @KarlDahl @MechaSilvio @deprecated_ii yeah, I'm sure hiring H1B was a way to get good ESG. I just don't *feel* like ESG was a big motivator in companies below 1,000 employees though

     @MechaSilvio @KarlDahl @deprecated_ii yeah, that is certainly true. I'm just thinking in terms of what I've seen. Maybe it's changed a lot in the last 5 years, but it used to take a lot of specialized knowledge and contact with the right lawyers and stuff to get H1B.

     @sickburnbro @KarlDahl @deprecated_ii Small companies cargo cult "best practices" from huge companies, it's some kind of mind virus.
     
     They get H1B the same way they use AWS "because you might have to scale any moment"
     
     Nigger, you have 25 customers and a huge AWS bill when you could run your stuff in a 10yo box

     @KarlDahl @MechaSilvio @deprecated_ii if you can approve over a cap what is the use of a legislative cap

     @sickburnbro @MechaSilvio @deprecated_ii You know that 85k annual cap in the H1B program? The Bidanmans administration approved 10x the cap in 2024

     @BobsonDugnuttHB @KarlDahl @MechaSilvio @deprecated_ii that's certainly the most pessimistic take, but I think more relistically this just shows that government is always just force in the end. Those who can, do.
     
     You can only in the end restrain those who don't want to listen by force. This goes for common criminals tweaking out and for megalomaniacal millionaires the same.

     @sickburnbro @KarlDahl @MechaSilvio @deprecated_ii That's in perfect accordance with my take. The people who don't understand what you just wrote are the rubes who got placated.

     @BobsonDugnuttHB @KarlDahl @MechaSilvio @deprecated_ii Fair enough, but civilization has been pretty successful at reducing conflict, which is what allows nice things like farms and having a flock of animals.
     
     Ultimately the point of setting rules, caps, etc is just to justify the ultra-violence you do when they are ignored.
     
     This is why I also don't slander normies. People who have had their norms violated are often in a place with few choices - it's why the elite did what they did to get them in that place, they knew they could do it and no-one could reasonably react.
     
     This is why when someone is being a rube, I simply ask them questions to see what they are hung up on.
