  8. Pakistan raised Sualeh Asif. MIT and Silicon Valley kept him. Now he is a billionaire behind a $60B AI deal. His talent came from Karachi. The patents, jobs, and wealth went elsewhere. That is brain drain. Fix the system, not the people. #Pakistan #BrainDrain #AIStartups thedissidentvoice.org/2026/05/cursor-spacex-and-pakistans-brain-drain/

  9. Trump Slashed #Science Funding. Now the #US Could Face a Costly #BrainDrain.
    The White House’s continued attacks on #academia and its funding cuts to scientific research have provided an opening for other countries to poach the type of researchers and #scientists who have helped make #America the world’s leader in medical and technology breakthroughs. That brain drain could be very costly for the U.S. economy.

    Yeah, that was me... years ago actually. But let's look at this from a different perspective.

    The world embraces #BrainDrain from the #US. Now there will be even more jobs for true blue Americans, as the ones who know a thing or two about a thing or two eye property in France, Germany and the Nordics.

  22. RE: flipboard.com/@npr/politics-v8

    Do U.S. voters realize the scale and cost of the 47th #POTUS's *drastic* #immigration "slow-walking"?

    This backlog is bigger than ALL FOUR YEARS of the 45th POTUS's term.

    It's stopped TONS of #science by removing work authorization from LOADS of #scientists who were ALREADY LEGALLY WORKING HERE FOR YEARS (e.g., when graduating Ph.D. #students or #postdocs have to transition to an H-1B #visa when OPT expires).

    We had to halt multiple #decisionScience projects when a Research Project Manager completed their doctorate. Why? Because #USCIS simply isn't processing certain #OPT applications — and #H1B processing is much slower than normal times. In the past year, the #UnitedStates multiplied this loss of #innovation and #productivity by HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS! And with no detectable benefit to #security, etc.

    Naturally, the highest-skilled foreign nationals are taking their skills to other countries, contributing to further #brainDrain from the #USA.

    Incredible waste and inefficiency.

  27. This is one ugly face of #BrainDrain - a developer, part of the GNOME project, writes about how he wants to leave the US, what blocked and blocks this and what this will mean for a large number of projects he's involved in.

    Nobody wins here. I hope he and his family is safe and he can find ways to make ends meet. I also hope the projects get by without him. But the "sole maintainer" list is pretty impressive - the sad fact is, that finding a new maintainer will be hard.
