I should have put a question mark on that comment. :D

Then he's no one's father.
Comment on: Reality of H1B
No, it's because managers don't trust American workers. This is a management issue. The companies know you are there, they don't care. They're going to get rid of that programmer the second they are done, by any means necessary to save money. They don't want to face you when they do it. They promise big to get the talent, then screw you a year later with excuses about saving money. H1B makes it so they don't have to face the social consequence of their shitty actions. It's not you, it's them.
I've seen this enough times personally to know this is the reality. It has everything to do with money and social consequences, nothing to do with being able to find talent.
Comment on: Pair programming: Why it is a bad idea.
Goddamn that's so true.
What science degree do you have? And why programming? if you want money, there's plenty of things in the data field you can be doing for prevailing wage.
