I would say that both US and China are using the data we trust upon them for industrial espionage. So don't use their models if you are working defence or other sensitive areas
This is spot on. The US under MAGA are actively dismantling their once leading position in IT as well as defence. I guess it is hard to see as a US citizen but from outside this is clear as glass.
Europe is not falling behind on anything that is not reasonable.
The increased growth in USA the last decade have largely been created by means that one day will be quite costly for you (debt).
The USA under MAGA is falling apart. EU and others are actively minimizing risk by selecting non-US IT providers. EU and others are actively selecting non-US defence aystems.
I say that it is very positive to protect your citizens. Russia (sending their citizens en masse to a certain death on the front lines) and USA have more in common politically than USA and EU.
Just for others, it seems this was already an article so it came up quickly, but for fines, not taxes.
"In 2024, the total income tax paid by all publicly listed European internet companies combined was approximately €3.2 billion. This total, which includes firms like SAP, Adyen, Spotify, and Zalando, was notably lower than the €3.8 billion in fines the EU collected from US tech giants in the same year"
Which one? There’s no proof that any of Israel’s claims were ever true. It’s on them to provide proof, which they of course have not. If you want to see Tel Aviv or US bases getting hit, go search Twitter. There are thousands of videos. While you’re their look at the tens of thousands of videos of the IDF committing war crimes.
All the “protesters” are Zionist. They’re attacking my ally in the fight against Zionism. The “protesters” have not offered me an alternative to the Iranian government. What is their plan to end Zionism?
I understand that some people take the manager path for the title/pay and never understands that the role is about handle people - not the tech. But they will not be very appreciated or it's a very small shop.
Because being a manager is the only way you can move up in most companies. And engineers who end up being engineering managers don't really want to let go of their former life, they'll end up managing people and doing the work at the same time causing all manners of issues. Of course there are exceptions, and the environment plays a factor as well.
