I was surprised, given the sharp critique of the current H-1B system in the piece, that @Matloff didn’t recommend cutting the number of H-1Bs (and other similar programs). Maybe I missed something.

Good grief. This is insane, if Grok is correct. And I mean “insane” in a positive, inclusive and generally uplifting way. (It’s Grok’s answer to a query about my top 5 posts that X considers negative.)

Hard to believe this won’t be the best thing on H-1Bs you’ve read. https://t.co/mJN03B47mp

Have they given one to Jim Johnson yet? Hard to believe they missed him. Prominent Dem. Got very rich. Had a big impact. https://t.co/PB1zGD0qVy

Dems (Bernie, @nytopinion writers) seem to be turning against H-1B. Dems have almost half the votes in the House. GOP base already hates it. Are @ElonMush and @DavidSacks happy they turned H-1B into a big pre-inaugural issue? https://t.co/tyT4kXeOkv Sorry, that was negative.

$17M over 5 years for Brookings doesn’t seem staggering. But they’re probably angling for more. https://t.co/ALe0CyV1Tr

In the prestigious @TheAtlantic Johnson’s first ballot victory is “bad news for Trump’s legislative agenda.” OK. It’s a take! https://t.co/IGXgwAKw1q

.@NeilMunroDC says the salary floor proposal is a con. If it’s supported by https://t.co/vTuGw1MsXo it’s almost certainly a con. https://t.co/ttDCiJkzVb That’s distinct from auctioning off the slots, highest salary first. https://t.co/Rr3jmZyc90

I suspect Musk et al really want at least 2 things: 1) The superstars/Einsteins/Jokics 2) An army of (way) lower level grunts willing to pull multiple all nighters to get projects done quickly. Why not give SV that for AI/Quantum effort but not for anything else? https://t.co/yXqRObVPd0

It’s one thing to let in 10s of thousands of foreign experts in AI/Quantum physics–and even 10s of thousands of exploited all night coder grunts–to prevent China from winning the AI/quantum race and dominating the world. https://t.co/2REeHAcJnk It’s another thing to let them in… https://t.co/97J5uUtSr7
