You didn't address this idea that nuclear power does not require Iran to enrich uranium. The deal seems faulty if they can still enrich uranium, regardless if they were following i…

My experience is the EDI and debugger depedent programmers have a very hard time when those things are taken away or unavailable. The reverse is not true.

A lot of the good German engineers are in the US.

Those were produced pre-FAANG, Boeing probably paid comparatively better then. Do the smartest software engineers flock to Boeing in 2019? I think the relatively low pay and status…

How good are Boeing's software engineers? They don't seem to pay very well.

So in Romania it's basically the same percentage of income as in the US.

I pay $70 a month for gigabit AT&T fiber in a southern city, 10 miles from the city center.

I think a lot of the problem is education. Without education a lot of these ideas wouldn't occur.

It probably has less to do with markets than the university training city planner types get.

This is pure chauvinism, like claiming NASA is 50% Indian. Silicon Valley was the dominant tech center of the world well before the H1B.

What was the salary of mechanical engineer vs an average American worker a hundred years ago? I saw this a while ago and I don't remember the exact numbers, but the multiple was fa…

We've become a nation of employees.

What was different about America that small towns thrived? The economic system is short sighted, and doesn't always have to drive politics - this may be a recent phenomena.

That's a different Cromwell.

> have a ton of redundant jobs because of their inability to make needed structural changes because of the work councils and labor laws. How will they able to adapt to truly focus …

It's going to get even more extreme in the near future. Tesla is embarrassing all of the German auto manufacturers mightily. I think they'll need one or two to go down before they …

Sure, but they are smart at the industries of the past. Will bureaucratic Germany be able to adapt? I don't think so. Take electric cars for instance. Much simpler than traditional…

It's an interesting thought. Does German really have a prayer in this space? Making breakthroughs in this space isn't something just any trained student can do. The best all work f…

They'd probably get more return by 'encouraging' Google and American tech companies to open bigger offices.

> This moves economic resources in the US to less competitive industries. Is this really true? Does having industries like furniture-making really make it so we don't have Google?

It's only declining in the places where people give a shit about the Planet in these terms.

He was mistaken. It's almost a million in profit.

It's going to get a lot worse, now that these people have been forced out of power in goverment, they will turn their eye to other things.
