Anyone that finds your take controversial, I would consider insane.

More specifically… the school on paper also agrees with you. They rolled out a whole system to make sure these things go well for employees. There has just never been actually implemented and now we see the result.

So the systems setup for this need to be more than lip service for the brochure or “thoughts and prayers”. And yes this requires an investigation as this could definitely rise to negligent homicide or something.

Probably their parents, but yes.

Megaprojects had a cool videos on Chinese EV’s.

I’d imagine that the fine means the employer is also open to civil action.

Only for Americans that need to pay for the tariffs. The devices are made in china.

The Arizona fab is for relatively standard chips, not the high end ones.

And this is also a step to prepare for an incoming president that has already kicked off a trade war before he even got there.

They get a cut probably.

If you are a shareholder that gets the payout and make a profit… it sure is. For everyone else… Who are we kidding. Fuck everyone else.

And are still profitable… they just want more profit. So they reduce pension payments and wage growth and other employee benefits so they can pay enough dividends next year.

Profits go up if you don’t invest in your company but instead pay your shareholders. But at some point you atrophied your R&D so much you have fallen behind and then the question becomes, do you bleed it dry and sell it for parts, or revitalize by investing. And if revitalizing is still viable.

No company can take over Nasa. Nasa is a research organisation. It actually pushes the envelope and does things that have no apparent objective ROI… like going to Mars and driving around a rover. Only a government funded organisation can do that.

Of course we can just pour endless buckets of money into for-profits… but then who decides what is done with the money… Nasa actually has the organization for this… with scientists… clear grant processes etc. etc.

Goedzo. Minder borden, betere duidelijkere bewegwijzering. Goed dat er afentoe een bezem doorheen gaat.

I hope that the incumbents learn the right lessons. People are angry and hurting. Struggling to make ends meet. Telling everyone that we’re fine and the economy is booming just emphasizes that the economy and normal people have nothing in common… There is no “we”… the economy is booming the broader electorate can afford less than we could only 2 years ago.

Lol at all the down votes… people could also have not engaged with your post… but apparently there is a right way to use your posting privileges and you broke the law.

Maybe Assad can buy some north Korean troops too.

And he is right. Else there will just be a next conflict under the treat of nuclear weapons everyone else needs to bud out.

Yeah I did the same as a European… and this thought dawned on me when I saw your post… glad to see this helps us all sort of relativate things… cause a trade war about cars is coming… as both the US and the EU will fight hard to protect their own car manufacturers.

Maybe a silver lining is that this would free up these cars to be sold in other countries that have cities drowning in smog… if cheaper EVs are available there it might dramatically improve the health of these cities and all their inhabitants…

Yeah! Parents should totally be allowed to give their car keys to their 14 year old to go out and drive drunk if they feel their kid can handle it.

Is this the NATO variant of threatening to nuke?
