> Of course I answered I would just work nights Was this intended as a joke or would you really work nights just because there was too much work?
In most interview situations, the interviewer is looking for someone who will "go the distance" to deliver no matter what, i.e. someone who will work nights

> US is already blocking them from exporting to China Which works until China invades Taiwan. Then what?
Then what? That isn't hard to figure out. If China invades Taiwan before enough TSMC plants are built in America to meet American, and by extension - Western - demand for electronics, then it's war. Period, end of story. There is no fucking way in any timeline in any alternate universe that Western electronics companies can allow China to put their businesses on hold, because it isn't just a bunch of AMD and Qualcomm…

The US (supposedly?) blocked ASML from exporting its machines to China. ASML is a Dutch company.
Ha. Tell that to all of Europe. Because so much trade is done in dollars. And because companies globally want access to U.S. financial markets, money transfer systems, companies and markets, the U.S. has the ability to tell even foreign companies what to do. That's why Europe was frustrated when Trump reinstated sanctions on Iran. And had to try to figure out ways of bypassing them. ( https://www.google.com/amp/s/www…

If China takes control of chip supply the US will have to play along and try to apply soft power, never war, because China is a nuclear nation with 4 people to every 1 in the US.
It hasn't even been a month since Afghanistan proved (again) that even when you have overwhelming force you might not have a favorable outcome.

This shows that you are a team player but also willing to push back.

China flat out bribing, kidnapping or blackmailing ASML employees seems perfectly viable. Or sneaking operatives into ASML to steal trade secrets. China is the best in the world at this and they now have huge incentive to try even harder
They will not be able to steal enough technology, nor will they be able to manage the organization that reproduces it.

This isn't true at all. I just double checked and you can view the thread logged out no problem. Twitter's UI is admittedly garbo so depending when you clicked on the thread you may have needed to click an expand link.
Oh it's worse, it's location dependent. Developed countries have more limited access, which is kinda ironic.
