Same situation here in Germany, where companies are worried about attracting skilled foreign workers while right-wing extremist parties are gaining more and more votes.

It’s kind of baffling that the saner elements of these conservative parties simply don’t get that all the really smart people who tend to have disproportionately large positive impacts on their country’s economies simply won’t put up with authoritarian governments, and will straight up leave if push comes to shove. The politicians in question are evidently unable to understand the catastrophic impact that brain drain can have on a country in the medium- to long-term.
They don't care. They aren't even looking at the small picture, they are busy trying to decide which crayon to eat.
Hey, the marines would be very upset if they heard you badmouthing their favorite flavor.
Show me where in the Western world / developed world where to go... please.
I'm in Australia and it's just as bad here. Totally insane bullshit being normalised by a comatose media and populist scoundrels.
I miss the days when conservatives at least had a sense of real nationalism. Now they'll commit treason and openly support foreign enemies like Putin and no one bats an eye.
Norway?
Yeah that's actually a very good suggestion.
Also interested in Germany as even diminished today it's got a lot more in line with my and my partner's values - namely sausage, beer and being anti Nazi.
As a German, Komm rüber!
I don’t understand. Why are they so keen on limiting video as of whispering ladies spreading gorilla glue on raw chickens with wire brushes ?
So I think many of the ASML ladies have migrated to the Netherlands due to them being highly qualified in the area and there seems to be a lack of people who can do it locally. With the 30% tax ruling that’s a sweet deal if you’ve got the right background and experience.
I assume whispering in Dutch would just sound horrible and insulting to the ears. I kinda get that they would want to move to France. I imagine French whispering to be more appealing, so they would need to hire less skilled workers from foreign countries.
The only thing that I still don’t get is why they need a factory for this when it’s such a WFH friendly job.
You're thinking of ASMR, this is related to ASML...two completely unrelated things.
Well that was the joke. Tough crowd
All crowds are tough when the jokes are bad
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Rick's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick & Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick's existential catchphrase "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon's genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂
And yes, by the way, i DO have a Rick & Morty tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid 😎
When you combine them you get ASM Stereo
