I have a couple of those old Airports gathering dust somewhere. They were replaced by mesh routers that worked infinitely better.

If they want to head back into the router game, they'll also want to throw in some BLE, Zigbee, Z-Wave, Thread, and Matter support (with mesh repeaters) to act as universal bridges to home automation.

Traditionally, there have been a few classes of companies in the U.S: C Corp, S Corp, LLC (Limited Liability Company) aka partnerships, and Closed. Most companies in the U.S. are organized as one of these, with their responsibility toward shareholders, who want to see their money grow.

If you wanted to work for a company that didn't necessarily have infinite growth as its mission, the only option was to find a Non-Profit, but they may not have the kind of funding to spend on legal visas.

In the last few years, two other types of companies have emerged. They're similar, but legally different: B-corp (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/B_Corporation_(certification)), and PBC or Public Benefit Corporation (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benefit_corporation).

These can be for-profit, but have to have a stated mission in their charter to provide a benefit of some sort to the public.

The links above point at some examples, but you may want to do your own research. Those companies may have the resources to pick up your visa, and may better align with the values you're looking for.

Ideally, and when able, your best bet would be to start your own business and set it up just the way you want.

Some of the US contribution to the Ukraine war effort was in the form of older equipment or credits to purchase arms from US weapons sellers (i.e. the funds just recycled back to the US).

Wondering why these UK funds are in the form of 'loans?'

It sounds like these may be to help Ukraine domestically manufacture their own arms.

Prediction: first big company to offer 32-hour work week at no loss of pay, with choice of remote or hybrid, will hoover up all the Grade-A talent.

Anyone know if this can run under Parallels on a Mac M3?

That was... mesmerizing.

If the Astroscale grabs a piece of debris and nudges it toward atmosphere, won't it de-orbit itself as well? It wasn't clear from the article.

Seems like it would be more efficient to attach a couple of small boosters to the debris and wave bye-bye, Wile E. Coyote style.

Surprised it got the spelling right.

Many companies (including tech) started DEI policies in order to broaden their pool of candidates and make internal promotions more merit-based. The stated goal was to attract better candidates and make their services and products more in line with their customers. Made sense.

A few years later, many are capitulating to political pressures to drop those programs.

Thing is, the original problem still stands and these shareholders (who presumably mostly care about their investment) know this. That's why they're voting down these proposals. They could call Costco and Apple West Coast liberals, but not Deere. It's just smart business.

Question is... How do you get back?
