Could it be that the US nerds would want a better standard of living than a H1B?
I’m currently looking for something new after my last contract finished out (which was a lot shorter than what they dangled in front of me, and which I took in place of a possible longer term job — yeah contracting can stink the way you can get jerked around).
Well I can’t say I have heard NOTHING from Silicon Valley, but it’s been mighty quiet compared with the rest of the country.
