How deep does this H1B hole go? So much disgusting stuff is getting unveiled here. Why are Indian companies even allowed to operate on US soil like this while China ones are banned?

Discriminatory Practices​

Critics have highlighted several practices by Cognizant that demonstrate a clear preference for South Asian employees:

• Visa Preferences: The company prioritizes South Asians for U.S. positions requiring H-1B visas, becoming the top recipient of these visas in 2015 and 2016.
• Fictitious Job Applications: Cognizant has allegedly submitted visa applications for non-existent jobs, creating false invitation letters indicating a need for South Asian employees.
• Hiring Bias: Both internal and external recruiters at Cognizant favor South Asian candidates, leading to disproportionate hiring.
• Promotion Discrepancies: South Asians receive promotions at significantly higher rates, with performance ratings often reflecting this bias.
• Termination Patterns: Non-South Asians face terminations at much higher rates, especially those benched for over five weeks.

During a major layoff at one of my past companies no one of a certain ethnicity was impacted and East Asians/caucasian, especially older ones with high technical expertise, were highly impacted.

Honestly, I feel the whole US establishment (Democrats and Republicans) attitude towards China has changed, ever since China launched that ICBM in Oct. It feels like most of the time when China is brought up, the MSM always insert a line from some US official that the US isn't seeking a war with China. Perhaps I'm reading too much into this, but this forced line isn't the usual Uncle Sam "I don't want to fight, but they leave me no choice" gaslighting, more like the US genuinely want to avoid armed conflict with China.

Nah, they still want war, they’re just crestfallen that they’ll have to stomach million man casualties before the nukes have even been launched. If they were truly for peace, they’d have delivered pompeo, cotton, bannon, pottinger et al in chains to zhongnanhai.

you can also blame white boomer bosses who also enabled these Indians to contaminate their companies because they didn’t want Asians coming up the ranks and drinking their milkshake.

That's why the Indian talking point of "it's just about skills, you're salty because you are not skilled" is so annoying to me. There is blatant ethnic nepotism going on here and we're supposed to blame the victims instead of the perpetrators.

Still, things are perhaps not totally pitch black.

Most people support a genuine high-skilled immigration visa. But this wage-dumping bullshit ain't it.

Look at how dumb this Marine General thinks. He thinks the latest technology recording your ability to fight measures how well you fight. He says smartphones last recorded how Americans fight. The Chinese last fight was painted with oil and canvas. All you have to tell about China is the Korean War where the first day China entered, the US spent the rest of it running away. Americans don’t like it when you say that hard truth and it defies what the General is saying. Then they’ll make excuses that was seventy years ago. Oh like how the last modern naval battle for the US was more than that on how they claim the US has more experience? Apply that logic to China’s capability when the last they met China won against the US. The US Navy has never been in a fight with a peer adversary in over seventy years.

Marines never beating the crayon eating allegations. What colour is this general's favourite flavour?

What's up with Pakistan?

Seems like the most unnecessary conflict ever. Imagine if these guys could simply focus on building up their economies so they can contribute on the international stage...

US allies and Chinese allies in an active competition to see who can shoot themselves in the feet more :/

The Indian D day invasion coming to America saving private Apu Nahasapeemapetilon

 

[ZeEa5KPul]

Given the level of global hostilities, i'm starting to wonder if there are cyber attacks on boeing planes in particular for the US role in getting the russians to accidentally shoot down that civilian airplane earlier last week.

No, just Indian outsourcing and financemaxxing.

Can’t believe that Anti-Indian sentiments took off before Chinese Americans are carted off to detention camps. Should I go ahead with an Indian American survival pack?

I know we shouldn't judge by appearances but just something about him is really going to piss off a lot of people. It's even worse when these are supposed to be your representative of "superior" people.

Achondroplasia - A genetic disorder affecting bone growth, sometimes linked to inbreeding, leading to disproportionate head size.

It's almost beautiful how much western aristocracy has perfected feudal rule, in a way even theocracy can't compete.

Satan's assistant: People are revolting. They want "freedom". It will end our system.
Satan: (No!) I dressed feudal monarchy with the costume of democracy.

MIGA (Make Israel/India Great Again)

But India and Israel have never been great.

Runway was 2.5 km long, there are gear-up landing procedures, 2.5 km is more than long enough to come to a stop per procedure
Video started well down the runway, if you're not on ground by then you'd have gone around already, which means it touched down at normal location on runway
There were no observable slow-down, which means engine was providing forward thrust the entire way.

I think what happened was:
- Pilots either forgot to lower landing gear, or landing gear showed lowered but didn't, in either case they unknowingly landed without gear
- Immediately following unexpected belly landing, pilots either triggered auto go-around or deployed thrust reverser, both would rev engine up to max
- If thrust reverser, then damage to thrust reverser from belly landing prevented reversal
- More likely it was in go-around mode, pilot held pitch up hoping it can get off ground again to the end, but obviously wasn't able to.

Proper procedure in this scenerio is cut power and nose down, but if you were caught off guard, especially for budget airlines, pilots might not react correctly and locked into go-around mindset

As bad as Boeing is in this case I think it's most likely pilot error, if it's the aircraft at most its land gear not down warning not working.

Better question to ask is why is there a wall at the end of the runway? It should be empty space for some distance for precisely these types of events. Unless ofcourse the runway is very long and the pilot overshot it initially.

These baffoons take the cake though, the pilots were trying to get six pack abs and on an extended intermittent fasting, that lead to this crash incident:

Surprisingly, couple people onboard survived in this crash.
