It appears it’s pork, which lands in China. Current corrupt government is fighting tooth and nail in order to not start a trade fight with China at EU level.
You do realize that when a term was coined many years ago its definition might be broadened?
Exceptions*
Yes, it is different in Netherlands, Sweden, Poland.
Ah yes, Germany == Europe.
Can Apple now focus on rolling back Liquid Glass “upgrade”?
Exactly, well put!
It’s not that I don’t agree with you, I am just pointing out why it’s hard to catch up to scaling laws given the European economic (capital) and political (US would be upset if they found out Europeans distill) constraints. China is only bound by economic constraints.
Good question, given that American companies basically threw copyright law into the trash, I think they should.
Big tech has remote offices in every major European economy, and they pay well above top 90th percentile of market rate. It basically has a talent sucking effect on the entire economy.
No, we don’t need US’s Trojan horse in the EU
EU big nations getting marginalized: haha. The only reason there’s no US-like tariff on Chinese cars is because Germany was too scared it would lose its access to Chinese market.
Junior employees are not sufficiently competent.
Because they distill
No
If someone had guts (not the current governments) they would split the Germany into zones and all the Bavarian whining about “ugliness” would fade rather quickly when the prices went up.
Germany has high energy costs, but back in 2010s they didn’t because they had access to cheap Russian gas.
Don’t underestimate the corrupt politics of some countries, especially Germany. There are individuals actively working against the global cost curve and trying to misallocate the capital to gas at the large scale. Katherine Reiche is the primary example. She’s pushing for building as much capacity for gas plants as possible, instead of choosing battery storage as the cheapest option.
Currying is a thing in FP too.
Why do you care?
FUD
How is this different from AlphaEvolve?
I agree. Parent comment is making extremely generalized statements, about German cars with overconfidence. There’s not a single “German” car, it’s a huge ecosystem of brands like VW (Audi, Porsche), BMW, Mercedes. I’m quite sure they don’t have the single “user-hostile” interface.
In the PISA exam, white American kids outperform kids in Hong Kong and Korea, as well as western european kids of non-immigrant ancestry.
Translation: rich kids have better access to top education in America. Got it.
What’s so shitty about it?
Stop whining
They are not lies.
I’m Polish, I don’t have to hide anything.
Wrong assumption, it’s been that way long before the energy crisis started.
It’s in the valley and because Polish state is kinda weak they cannot enforce nearby villages to stop burning garbage to heat their homes.
Exactly, seriously complaining about the fact that the system is designed to run on time rather than trickle down delays is beyond me.
