There are other options: Nuclear power plants can provide zero-carbon electricity 24 hours a day, regardless of the weather outside or the temperature inside. Gov. Kathy Hochul of New York has laudably called for building five gigawatts of new nuclear capacity in the state. Could she band together with others in New England to build even more? In the 1970s, France responded to the oil crisis by building dozens of new nuclear power plants — and because it built them all at the same time, it got good at building them cheaply, quickly and safely. If Northeastern lawmakers want cheaper electricity, lower emissions and less oil and gas combustion, then they should consider a similar path.

LinkedIn, for instance, saw a 40% increase in tech professionals changing their location to India in the third quarter of 2025, the latest data the platform has made available.

The Trump administration has put new fees and other barriers on a visa program popular among Indian engineers working in the US.
Today, when hiring, leaders I know look for what might be called a generalist with judgment, someone analytical and adaptable who is nimble enough to learn skills and become reasonably conversant in new knowledge. The best candidates share a quality no machine can replicate. They think independently, navigate ambiguity without waiting for instruction, analyze the questions that were not asked but should have been and own their decisions. They use A.I. — as a tool but not a crutch.
