I think G already has an office in NYC, don’t they? To me this means that they expect more in-person presence there over time, not less.

I agree, there should be a stronger Western alliance. Excluding France does seem strange.

the threat from China is not speculative see their threats of invading Taiwan. I lived in Ukraine where up until 2014 the threat of Russia taking Crimea and eastern provinces was “speculative”.

when I was at Apple no one other than execs from our office wanted to move into the newly built (at that time) “space ship” building because it has open office setup whereas our old office in Cupertino had private offices for everyone.

I am in US where gasoline is way too cheap than it should be. I am still going to buy Model Y (or X) simply because it is a great car (fun to drive, over the air updates, autopilot, etc)

it is not about being 160K more productive. It is about supply and demand (of talent). Try finding even 5 Tim Cooks, not 160K. He is hired by Apple’s shareholders, what would happen to share price if he leaves?
