I would think it unrealistic for a country to make a foreign investment of magnitude that doesn’t favour their citizens. The government wont survive long if its people think it’s just giving lots of money to foreigners.

Money in quantity and reasonably free movement of workers. The latter is why SV is in California rather than Boston. It can be created elsewhere given the political and economic will. Or, if events get outside its control.

Mobs attacking the seat of government tends to be considered a Bad Thing. So yeah, calling it a criminal act is appropriate. But, as in Shogun, “unless you win”. Then it’s not criminal it’s revolutionary.

If guns are the last defense against tyranny then they bloody well better get to work. Unless that was all BS and they’re on tyranny’s side. Thought I’d provide a follow on. They could make noise, protest, support court cases, criticize pol

But it's performance art that plays to his base. He's a reality show star, so that and gaining money/power floats his boat.

This will probably be flagged all to hell, but its seem quite justified for Poland as well as NATO should act to defend Polish air space. Basically declaring a no-fly zone on itself...

I'm way older, but I had the impression that 30-35 was already too old for casual consideration for software development outside specific fields? Which is depressing as science PhD's enter industry at the 26-30 age range...

Perhaps. But cost, the lack of a national charger network, the sheer size of the us and politics is hindering EV adoption. Throw in a questionable ability to handle the power load and the inherent conservatism of us-Ian’s… Canadians also.

If it was like $200 or $300. Not having the ability to snap pix at any time I want is a noticeable reduction in capability. It would also lose the ability to annotate what I'm looking at with AR/informative labels, etc.

It’s hard on two professional couples, as it’s not always easy or even possible to find two jobs in many areas. But such couples tend to be older and we all know how that goes down in the biz. Especially if they’ve committed parenthood.

Given how I’ve worked and the developers I’ve worked with over the decades, marketeers or managers might work better in bunches but peace and quiet serves the developers. Offices with a door, few interruptions, etc. Rands has talked about

Not so stealthy headcount reduction. Admitting that their collaboration tools aren’t worthwhile.

Because they did. The question is whether that was just bad optics or a bad deal. Look for follow through.

While it’s not sexy, I suspect there’s still a whole lot of silicon being melted using C, C++ and whatever Fortran is called now. Lots of simulations are accessible now and much of the calculation logic can be parallelized. Remember, if yo

Checked. My bottles don’t say where they were manufactured. That location can be different than the name of the manufacturer. I’m interested in where they’re made, not whether they are using an outsourcing us generic maker.

Walmart years back tried a buy USA push. Lower prices outside the us, due to lower wages, less regulations, …. Didn’t last long. If people really want in country products, they’ll just have to pay more. Companies aren’t going to make less.

I suspect foreign generated or inferred economic data for the us will be the only alternative. Going to be real hard selling that debt.

If they really want to address illegals they should penalize the companies that use them rather than individual workers. Hell, they might be working with companies to stage deport theatre and then looking away when they restock. Like they

They also thought that citizen's morale would break when a few bombs landed. WW II proved that it's more resilient, or perhaps resignation is stronger than giving up?

Small businesses such as crafters and the like relied on this to ship from Canada or Europe to the us. Now, folks will have to prepay the tariffs when making their purchase assuming the small business are still alive. This will noticeably

Guess there’s no international feed? They have to control the only feed if they’re going to try and sanitize things. And keep all smart phones off line.

Problem is, not every problem is well defined and not every design is correct or sufficient. And if users touch the results, all bets are off as it’s very very very hard anticipating all of the things they’ll do with your work.
