Do you have bad experiences with US workers, since you implicitly contrast them with immigrant ones?

That's not what I am asking. I want to know why US-born people in tech is/was so pro open border when it clearly does not benefit US labor. You don't get a lot of push-back from within tech against these hiring practices.

It was a good experience. You'd learn more in 4 years at a brick and mortar since you spend more time and homework there. Great option if you already know much of the material though, but i think they only admit US and Canadian people.

ADD here, and therefore (I believe easily irritable by sounds). For me, sudden and infrequent sounds are worse for stress than "noise". I'm wuite OK with city noise but hate door slammers and bowling ball droppers.
