Is it really that easy though for the rest of the world? As an european developer AFIAK there a basically two visas
* H-1B: Hard to get the quota as some big companies abuse it for cheap work
* L-1: Requires 1 year of working at the european branch of the company
H-1B seems really difficult to get, is the L1 easier? At the end of my studies at the moment and considered Silicon Valley, but dismissed the idea due to visa issues and the high cost of living.
