Apple should really consider starting to host WWDC outside the US like Canada.
This really cuts into who can attend it.
Though since they no longer do the 5 days thing and just invite people at the office for a couple of days- might not even make sense.
The US is no longer the place for anything that's truly worldwide. It's amazing how quickly the country has isolated itself compared to just one year ago.
Exactly, I have multiple relations that are leaders in research of their fields. They all used to work in the US and they have all moved away (except one but in the process).
Can you explain in more detail how suspension of immigrant visas cuts into who can attend WWDC? Do many people immigrate to the US just to attend WWDC? Does anyone at all?
Can you explain in detail how to maintain obdurate blindness to context that's so airtight that it's plausible for a potential WWDC attendee to ignore what's going on in the US? I mean it's not like they're going to get shot in the face.
If they are going to assault people there is a high chance they might get shot in the face in the process, yes. I am sorry, I was not familiar with the WWDC attendants propensity to violence, it now makes more sense.
As far as I know Apple is supporting current regime.
