Also, @crunchy bits are the best you have to actually tag @Staticness with the @ symbol, or else he won't know you are taking his Izzat from him. This is a very important step since it's unlikely he will be able to read his own name in your post. He needs the notification pop-up on his profile. Otherwise he will just skip right past your post mocking him and not realize he has lost even more Izzat.

All who bash India in general here is living rent free in Staticness' head and all the loss of izzat that's eating him from the inside due to issuing MATIs is enough for me.

As soon as rate hikes took place in 2023, offshoring clicked into overdrive. The best part is that those companies who don't really want to support a domestic tech workforce want to continue doing business in the US without penalty amid mass layoffs and shit. That's the world IT is in and jeets are definitely pro-AI, so that should be interesting.

The worst part is that in the 70s and 80s businesses started offshoring manufacturing jobs and the peasants who were working at GM or Schwinn at the time were told that it was time to retrain for the "information economy." These were unionized positions where the average employee was making the equivalent of $50 or more today and suddenly they were dumped and the only thing available to them was Taco Bell at minimum wage. Many did not survive this "transition" forced on them.

Now those "information economy" jobs are being moved offshore the same way they did manufacturing, and the peasants are supposed to move into what, exactly? The manufacturing jobs that were offshored 40 years ago? Fast food where they have to compete with the millions of immigrants brought in every year to suppress wages? Things will be fast returning to the 1890s level of unrest.

MS shuffled her from AI (which they're hyping up and investing a ton of time and money in) to dying Xbox. Maybe it's a sign someone noticed she's terrible at her jobs?

Maybe if gaming were my only hobby. As it is I have too many other high-dollar hobbies/interests and not enough time to dedicate to gaming to be able to justify the expense of a gaming PC. Console gaming has always adequate to scratch my gaming itch whenever I'm able to find enough spare time to play. I like the idea of having a console where I won't lose the game library I've already accumulated, and would be able to play the handful of PC only games I've wanted to be able to play. I tend to get one new console every generation so I can enjoy some of the newer games that come out, and that's all I'm typically able to justify spending the money on as I typically want to spend money on my other hobbies/interests more. And if I were to allow myself to get into gaming PCs, I know myself well enough to realize that it would be like my other hobbies where just getting a basic rig wouldn't be satisfactory for me. I'd want to get everything high end with hardline water cooling to all the processors, funky disco lights, a rad tower chassis, all the bells and whistles, etc. It would end up costing as much as my car. Nah, console is where it's at for me.
 
Took two ubers for the first time in years. First guy? Older white gentleman, good conversationalist, good driver, pleasant experience all around.

Second guy? Padeep, would have cancelled if I had read the name and not just seen the thumbnail and assumed he was Mexican. Guy pulls up across the street, gotta cross, whatever, maybe I shouldn't be so racist.

Speeds 20+ over the whole way home, harsh stops, tailgates a massive truck and tries to peer around it to pass in a double-line, doesn't speak English, every once and a while I catch a whiff of thst disgusting aftershave and cheap cologne they all use, have to grip the seat to not get tossed around on roundabouts.

FUCK poos! Can't wait to have eight billion more of these stupid niggers on the road! Padeep may be excited to crash and die and reincarnate into a gnat but I am not ready to meet the caucazoid God just yet.

The CEO of Microsoft (Satya Nadella, from India) just hired a new, unqualified VP of Xbox (Asha Sharma, whose family is from India), replacing a white guy (Phil Spencer).

Normally the ethnicity of a person in a role doesn't actually matter. Who cares what part of the world a person has ancestry from, as long as they do a good job... right?

But, in this case, it's worth pointing out a strange -- highly racist -- pattern within Microsoft.

That pattern is this:

Microsoft managers from India, disproportionately hire people also from India (even if those people are less qualified than other, non-Indian, candidates).

A pattern which is overtly racist and anti-meritocracy.

In the case of Asha Sharma, the new Xbox lead, this is glaringly obvious... as she has no experience, whatsoever, working in games. Zero. Not a drop of gaming. (Her longest tenures were at Instacart and working on Facebook messaging.)

Are we to believe that there were zero candidates available, to lead one of the largest gaming organizations in the world (Xbox), with significant experience working in the gaming industry? Not *one*?

That is extremely unlikely. In fact, I can say with absolute certainty that there are many managers and directors, already working within Microsoft, with extensive experience (decades) shipping successful games and gaming hardware.

And that's just the internal candidates.

Which means that Asha Sharma was likely hired for a reason other than her applicable work experience.

It is a reasonable assumption, based on Microsoft's established patterns, that she was hired because of her ethnicity.

Microsoft is one of the largest users of H1-B visas within the entire Tech industry -- with the vast majority of those H1-B's going to employees from India.

More workers from India, replacing non-Indian workers. Every Microsoft employee has seen this happen over the years.

A little personal anecdote:

Back in the late 1990's, I worked within a small team at Microsoft (only a dozen or so people). When I first joined, the team looked roughly like the surrounding area (Redmond, WA): Mostly white, with one Indian, and one Korean.

It was roughly proportional to the community.

The Indian man was then promoted to a management position. And, quickly, things changed.

In less than 1 year, the team was now predominantly Indian (with a few people of other Asian ancestry)... with only 3 White guys remaining.

Within a single year, the demographic ratio had flipped. It now no longer matched the city in which we worked.

Then things got weird.

The team moved to a new floor of the building, and every employee within the group was given their own, individual office.

Well. Every employee... except for the 3 White guys.

We were put, together, in the smallest office available. The size of a long, thin closet. In fact... I believe it was originally just a storage closet.

It was so cramped that, whenever the guy at the back of the "office" needed to leave the room... the other two guys had to get up and exit one at a time. Single file.

We called it "The Honky Closet".

All requests for the "Honkies" to move to space where we could fit was denied by non-Honky management (despite several offices remaining empty).

The purpose was clear. It was one, of many, attempts to get the remaining "White guys" to willingly quit. Which we all did within a matter of months.

And, yes, those roles we also replaced with "non-Honkies".

I mean, we're already there. DJT is not a politician for a prosperous and polite age, he's literally an old-fashioned right-ish populist like you'd see in the 1890s.

That's part of what makes the discourse around him so frustrating. Everyone in the media pretends like he's completely aberrant and unexpected when he's literally just pulled from the 1890s populist playbook.

How exactly is Trump like an 1890s politician? He seems closer to all the late 20th and early 21st Century Presidents.

Populism in this era had many facets, but here's three I can point out just off the top of my head:
1) Tariffs. This is the big one. I would argue that this alone puts Trump apart from late 20th century politicians who, since the time of the GATT, have considered international trade sacrosanct.
2) The free silver movement. We don't do commodity money anymore, but this is essentially the same thing as what DJT and others are pushing for with a cutting of interest rates (favoring an expansionary monetary policy) in spite of the economic data supporting keeping rates where they currently are.
3) Strong anti-foreigner sentiment on the heels of half a century of uncontrolled immigration.

I wouldn't say DJT is the perfect embodiment of these kinds of ideas, but he is the harbinger of where the national mood currently is. And that national mood has a lot more in common with 1890 than it does with 1990.

Boomers think time ended in 1980, and nothing has ever changed since then. If you can't find a new job in IT for some strange unknowable reason (you must be lazy, that's all) then just walk down to your local widget factory, give the manager a firm handshake, and they'll give you a job off the street that will give you enough money starting out to buy a 3 bedroom house with garage so you can raise a family in while the manager trains you to become a manager. If you try and point out at any point where this shit goes wrong, they simply can't understand any of it -- the factory's gone? No, it's in the closed down industrial district. You can't raise a family on new hire wages? You're just being greedy and or lazy. Pajeet Pajeetjeet says he'll do that job for $20,000 a year, so them offering you minimum wage is already way more than you're really worth! Boostraps, work ethic, yadda yadda.

I hope we live to see the day of the pillow.
