Fewer H1B1 Visas

Submitted by Ryumaou on

A victory for the American Worker!

Rejoice, my Worker Comrades! According to this article in the Houston Chronicle, Congress has no plans to extend the higher level of H1-B visas currently active in the US. That drops the number from 195,000 to 65,000. That's 130,000 jobs reclaimed for American Workers! At least, that's what will happen if they don't act before October 1. Let's hope they don't!

Fastest Non-Classified SuperComputer Runs Linux

Submitted by Ryumaou on

Oh, now this is cool!

And, frankly, better advertising for Linux than crashing SCO's website. I was sure that this was really a Beowulf Cluster, but, according to this article at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, it's a real super-computer. It was designed by HP and runs over 2,000 Intel Itanium II processors! Wow! That's some horsepower! Watch that penguin run!!
