Tech multinationals are almost by definition 24/7 operations.
The UK for an American tech company is a large stable country within 1-2 hours of the timezone of the largest single market in the world and has a shared language and culture.
If you want to sell into Europe then Britain made sense...until the fuckwits voted for leave (yeah I'm bitter, they fucked over everyone my age and under).

- Lio 8y agoYou're right but 48% of us thought it was a terrible idea at the time and still haven't heard a good reason for leaving that doesn't involve vague patriotic ramblings.

- njarboe 8y agoI found it strange that such a big decision was allowed to happen without a super-majority of some type. Why not have another vote and switch back, and then another? And I heard, but did not research, that technically the vote was not really binding in any case.
