    ‘Note that a legal immigrant such a Jobs or Musk is completely different than illegal alien and / or foreign country.”

    Steve Jobs like Barack Obama was born in the United States to a woman that was an American citizen, both had dads who were born overseas one Syrian one Kenyan, who were here in the United States, both going to college at the time. Steve Jobs birth mom decided to give her baby up however, she later on decided to keep Steve’s sister fathered by the same Syrian student Steve’s biological father she like Steve was an (American at birth), Barack‘s mom however, decided to keep her baby who was also an American at birth…. Steve Jobs and Barack have nothing in common with Elon at birth. Both were American citizens from day one neither were immigrants.
    So.. then Nubus was even more wrong than I thought. Great post. Thanks.
    Was it. 
    seems accurate to me to say 2nd generation being the child of an immigrant parent and most likely having an option to choose between the countries as to where to make their home. Having potential cultural links in both.

    they are a citizen but might have options.

    Trump won, get over it. So Harris is your choice, she is dump as a box of rocks and Biden doesn’t know where is is at or cannot recognize anyone, he hasn’t made a decision is years. Look at the border, the economy, how the rest of the world looks at the USA, thanks Democrats. Bunch of whiners. God Bless America 🇺🇸
    You think it is good that the world sees you as an easy to manipulate state so blinded by shiny things. A bully child that throws a tantrum if it doesn't gets its way changing or ignoring the rules as it suits itself. Interfering with other counties as it sees fit. 

    Why do you thinks Apple is “designed in California” not America ?
    Cali has a good brand a bit isolated from the more cult aspects of “middle ‘Merica” 

    Hey! You do you!

    Only in America can someone, that's been convicted of a felony for being the cause of an insurrection / coup on the US government, become President.  Almost makes me want to apply for a Green Card.
    You seem to mashed a couple of things here...
    He was convicted of election interference in 2016. 
    and impeached for an insurrection in 2021. 
    ... still baffling

  • Apple fights back against shareholders who want to end DEI hiring

    What a sentence.

    Good leaders look to hire the best person for the job, race or ethnicity be damned. It wouldn't be very comforting to go into major surgery with a doctor who was hired because of DEI, even if better candidates were passed over because of the initiative. 

    If you're saying people are being passed over because of their sex, race, or ethnicity, there are ample existing laws on the books to bring action against those practicing discriminatory behavior.

    DEI is dying and good riddance.

    Any company that hopes to succeed is not filtering people out because of their sex, race, or ethnicity. Good workers are good workers. End of story.


    Doctors performing major surgery have demonstrated skills and knowledge as they progress through various stages of their careers to get to that point. No one is hiring an unlicensed surgeon. So it is a poor example at best.  

    Apple certainly aren’t hiring an unlicensed surgeon any time soon so the poor example is even worse.

    “Most qualified” meaning some artificial measurement of skill that will contribute to the product. Given their poor quality management skills many who claim qualifications are also spouting I do wonder if they are not being hired because they do actually lack merit and those hired previously with qualifications have tanked the value of the qualifications. 

    It is not coincidental that those pushing for a return to “merit” also push other failed management ideas on a regular basis. Actually good leaders love diversity as it creates room for everyone in to team to lead from the side and show what they capable of.
