Couldn’t sleep and was checking on #Fediverse tags and holy smokes this dude is on FIRE! Can you imagine if datacenter workers (who are often up atm) went on a sudden strike and these oligarch platforms fell over ON the Inauguration Day?????? 🤣 You got it sir, resharing! #TechWorkers #WildcatStrike
And you know who else should join the #GlobalGeneralStrike #WildcatStrike? All the #Sysadmins who these oligarchs exploit to turn social platforms into their toys. Layoffs. Ruining lives. Wage theft. 3am calls. Etc. Well see how good your social runs without your #TechWorkers that you abuse.

30 plus years in tech, this will absolutely crush the tech industry. We need more home grown engineers but it will take 25 to 50 years to develop a sustainable pipeline of domestic talent.

People outside tech don’t get how massive a blow the $100K/year foreign worker fee is. 66% of Silicon Valley’s tech workers are foreign-born.
Even if some have green cards, that’s still a huge percentage hit with massive fees plus it limits the pipeline for new talent the industry relies on.

Two-thirds of Silicon Valley tech workers are immigrants: study
In Silicon Valley, the California region synonymous with innovation in the tech field, 66% of workers in tech were born outside of the U.S., according to research released this month.
