How Trump's $100,000 H-1B Visa Could Impact Tech Workers
Bloomberg Television· 2025-09-22 19:04
So it's not even close. So H-1Bs are a huge supplement, and because they're so hard to get, they're particularly sort of value added. Right.Well, what we actually see from H-1Bs is they create jobs for American engineers because of. Right. Because that makes it easier to create companies. It makes it easier to.DUMMETT To lead in high skilled industries. And so it's not a zero sum game. They don't push out American engineers.Okay. But tell our audience if there's 100 jobs created, how many can be people from ...
The Power of Switching Perspectives in Engineering | Aichen Zhuang | TEDxSHSID Youth
TEDx Talks· 2025-09-19 14:57
Innovation & Problem Solving - Genetic algorithms are used to optimize racing lines, demonstrating the power of combining genetics, computer science, and racing [1][2] - Honey and glue were initially explored to increase tire traction, highlighting the potential for world innovations to be inspired by seemingly irrelevant sources [4][5] - Chemical mixtures were used to dissolve additives into tire rubber, increasing traction and endurance [6][7] - A belt drive system was implemented by redesigning the chassis, improving acceleration while adhering to regulations [11][12] Teamwork & Collaboration - Successful racing requires diverse talents from design, engineering, and business departments [14][15][16] - Interdisciplinary collaboration provides varying perspectives for optimal decision-making, balancing cost and efficiency [16][17][18] - The design department creates eye-catching logos that represent team values, such as legacy and victory [19][20][21] Engineering & Optimization - Weight reduction is crucial for increasing acceleration, leading to the adoption of a lightweight belt drive system [9][10][11] - Applying pre-existing technology in surprising ways can solve real-world problems [13][14] - Understanding problems through different fields or disciplines can provide hints to the actual solution [8][24]

Engineering Comedy | Sai Ramachandran | TEDxRVCE
TEDx Talks· 2025-09-15 16:21
Core Argument - Humor is essential for maintaining humanity in an increasingly artificial world, offering a unique connection that AI cannot replicate [13][41] - Humor can be taught and developed, not solely reliant on innate talent, providing a means to solve midlife crisis [10][12] Humor Definition & Structure - Humor is defined as the juxtaposition of two ideas with a bridge connecting them [14][40] - The speaker outlines several "sierras of humor" or laughter triggers, including surprise, incongruity, embarrassment, recognition, release, ambiguity, superiority, and configurational humor [17][39] Practical Application of Humor - The speaker shares personal anecdotes to illustrate each laughter trigger, providing examples of how to apply these principles in real-life situations [1][37] - Understanding and utilizing humor can enhance communication and build stronger relationships [13][26] Engineering Perspective - Engineering principles of breaking down problems can be applied to understanding and creating humor [11] - Configurational humor relies on inside jokes and shared knowledge within specific groups, such as engineers [38][39]
Engineering Hope: Restoring Movement in Parkinson’s Disease | Amey Desai | TEDxDJSCE
TEDx Talks· 2025-09-12 16:38
Parkinson's Disease & Engineering Solutions - Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease impacting movement, specifically causing freezing of gait [2] - Freezing of gait leads to falls, loss of independence, and fractures [3] - Engineering solutions, such as a small stimulus, could potentially prevent freezing of gait [3] - A key challenge is overcoming the stigma associated with assistive devices [4] - Adoption of external technology and regulatory hurdles are significant considerations [5] - The development of a biocompatible device is crucial [5] Vibration Device & Patient Outcomes - A small wearable device was developed to address freezing of gait using gentle pulses of vibration [5][6] - A retired colonel with Parkinson's disease regained his mobility and independence through the use of the device [6] - Gentle vibration can reset the compass, restoring mobility and independence [7]
