.@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

In 2005, GM was making millions in China but collapsing in US. So they decided to save $$ by killing the successful China operations and ‘integrating’ them with the unsuccessful US operations. Genius move, of course. But do these centralizations EVER work? [Link in replies]

If Buick is dead or dying in China, what’s the reason for keeping it alive in the US? (The theory was that in China they buy Buicks because they think they’re big in the US so we have to at least keep pretending they are.) https://t.co/AgvYQTNIsF
