Is is just me or most good news comes out of the EU. Actual good climate laws, forcing USB-C, GDPR and now attempt to regulate AI.

beg to differ. eu looks like a huge pile of nonsense to me. what is the new ai regulation, actually? tried to look up the text but all i could find was stuff that makes no sense. would not start a company there, unless it is a local bakery or something. let alone anything tech related, despite talent being very affordable on the old continent.

Mixed views on my part. I was strongly against Brexit but taking GDPR as one example they have a habit of over reach (extra terratorial application) and implementing well intentioned legislation with questionable results. The EU ia something we should embrace but accept it needs drastic reform. Remove powers of veto, have democratic election of members by member states populace etc... I am pleased with the current push to break EU reliance on AWS/Azure. On the USB-C front I kind of wished they ruled the other way and made the Lightening connector the defacto; it's more sturdy and ports less prone to getting bunged up with lint. 路 11 months ago
Yeah, I'm no expert but I'm pretty happy with the EU. I mean it's no easy task to get 27 pretty different countries to somewhat agree to do anything lol 路 11 months ago

We鈥檒l see how it goes. GDPR is not enforced really well. 路 11 months ago
Sounds about right. The US is finished, and nowhere else exists. 路 11 months ago
Probably since you're focusing on regulations, which the US doesn't care too much about. But in those cases- absolutely. 路 11 months ago
