My radicalized perspective is that if the US can force ByteDance to divest/shutter TikTok in the US, the EU can do the same for Azure/AWS cloud data centers under the same logic

Yeah, I think the key for any shared rule-based compliance-y function is to center the interests of, in order: (1) the external "customer" and (2) the internal customers. Shared services are virtually never the customer and should never act like they are

The assassination tape here is polling and advice by entrenched party consultants.

Left-leaning parties would probably improve outcomes merely by firing every single one of these outfits.

Because centrists are often just less-racist right-wingers, such that the racism is a blocker on the right and policy is a blocker on the left

Trump really making Biden look like a foreign policy idiot. It ain't pretty to watch or even good for the US long term but Biden getting clowned by a clout-chasing blowhard is really embarrassing stuff

Xenophobes: "You need to integrate!!"

Me: "Bro I live in central Paris, I can barely get anyone to speak French with me to be able to practice."

Long-stay = A2
Resident = B1
Citizen = B2

I get the logic but I'm out here working hard, it will take me forever to multitask and get that fluent just to have voting rights and an EU passport... 😩

Yeah France has something for workers on 1 Jan too (A2?), but it has exceptions (thankfully for me, I'm in the middle of my fluency journey)

France will require B2 for citizenship as of 1 January. Some university students can't pass B2

Wandering in Paris is an A+ activity and I love that there's a special French word for it (flâneur/-euse).
