Canada needs to get on this as well. Let’s make America have a real national emergency with no intellect left.

I mean, they’ve already wiped out any intelligence in the White House itself. Let’s remove the real intelligence and get them out of the U.S.

Fuck Trumps Fascist America.

Unfortunately, Canada barely pays its own scientists. Science here is not a priority and it sucks

those lucky to get a professorship a uNi already done that, but faculty positions are quite competitive, as they are very small pool in general. even my non-prestigious state school, the positions to be bio-professor or adjunt is extremely fierce(like 10years ago). its because the tenures arnt leaving til they croak, also the Uni being stingy in not hiring them. alot of phd thinks faculty is thier career. does canada have industry for researchers, bio, engineering.

It would be great to grant people with educated backgrounds into Canada. That’s immigration I can get behind.

Want to become the modern nazi party ... then suffer from brain drain exactly like the old one did.

dont even need 500mil, trump's anti-science , anti-intellectuals gop is enough to scare them to other western countries. coupled by the fact its hard enough getting jobs with said phd.

Today is my last day here. Another country decided they liked me enough to sponsor me.

Hey, shhhh. Don't turn your nose up at relocation assistance.

[-] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 8 points 1 month ago

I’m something of a scientist myself…

[-] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 1 month ago

For 500 million I'll be whatever it takes. Almost. I can't, in good conscience, be a unicorn.

If you can’t grow your own horn, store bought will do just fine.

[-] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I've got 1 horn ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

For me? Thanks!

European researchers: Am I a joke to you?

[-] LH0ezVT@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

As someone thinking of doing a PhD, I want those dirty foreigners and their ivy league diplomas out! They are stealing my jobs!

[-] andresil@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

Honestly this whole thing is disgusting to me in a way. As if current European researchers couldn't do just as good as the US if given the same levels of funding. This is almost certainly a case of "let's flood the job market and lower how much we have to pay researchers"

[-] Ledericas@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

people moved to US, to get a better income. now even that is threatened, so they probably will take a pay cut in the EU just to be safe from the GOP.

[-] Ledericas@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

its pretty hard to get a job, even if nobody is stealing jobs in stem. Its the employers that are doing that, trying to hire as little as possible.

[-] resipsaloquitur@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

Can we pretend computer science is a real science?

[-] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

i heard just as many complaints from CS posts on different forums as bio stem people having difficulties in finding jobs.

[-] sensiblepuffin@lemmy.funami.tech 1 points 1 month ago

Doesn't help that modern-day CS curricula don't really teach you how to develop. They churn out developers who know what a red-black tree is, but not how to set up a .gitignore.

[-] Ledericas@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

no experience outside of the courses, that make sense much like biotech. my bro had tget certification and get skills outside any schooling. except labs you cant really do that unless your a student for research, and if there is space in a limited lab setting.

[-] InvertedParallax@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

I paid my own way.

Anything to get away from the rampaging, methed-up rednecks destroying everything in their wake.

“Trump’s America” isn’t America. Please don’t get things confused.

[-] pupbiru@aussie.zone 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

sorry to say that hopes and dreams don’t make reality

trumps america is absolutely america… it’s the america that the system and people put in place, and a huge number of americans still think he’s doing a good job

is it all of america? na there are decent people still… but this absolutely is america

[-] sensiblepuffin@lemmy.funami.tech 1 points 1 month ago

What is, then? Trump has spent 4 months demolishing most of the systems that stop companies from abusing people, deporting random people because "he's definitely MS-13, look at those knuckle tattoos!", and crowing about his Liberation Day as it does nothing but jack up prices on most consumer goods. He still has a > 40% approval rate. What is America if not Trump's America?
