Well, this is concerning.

This. ALL OF THIS IS A NON ISSUE. All. Of. It. These people won’t take one ounce of responsibility and not buy the damn thing.

Your thoughts regarding open source are borderline irrational when places like Amazon will copy and paste your repository and start making billions off of it.

Industry helps everyone. Private jets are so the rich can avoid the peasants. There’s no benefit for 99.99% of the rest of the world.

And we’re told we need to be conscious of the plastic bags we’re using at the grocery to fight pollution. We’re a drop in the ocean compared to these people.

Unfortunately this ship has sailed. The job market is broken right now for software engineers and it’s far easier to use AI to apply to a hundred jobs in the of hopes one gets back…

This is an odd precedent to set, and I can only imagine it leads to US companies being more reluctant to setup EU officers.

Does it matter? Crypto, arguably useless to 99.9% of US citizens is ~~using~~ wasting 2% of all energy.

Humanity in a couple hundred years will look back and deem us worse than the barbarians that came before us.

If it really was so easy then don’t you think every country would have their own ASML? The economic incentives are there. They’ve BEEN there for decades. To think China doesn’t hav…
