They did no leave the EU. They left the European Economic Union. Seems to me you have no clue what you are talking about. Fits right in with your other statements though.
And another thing that the bean-counters do not get is that security is not created by "security products". Those only create a war, fuzzy feeling....until you get hacked.
And this is just it: You do not make war on your close trading-partners. That alone is far more than ample compensation for some political unpleasantness.
The problem is not that nobody understands this. The problem is that you have to get rid of bean-counters in high positions that do not understand this. That is pretty hard to do.
CEO: What do we need to improve IT security? Security Consultant: Fire the CEO and get somebody that actually is able to listen to advice.
From my experience as a security-consultant: Some bean-counter concluded that because they ere not hacked in the past, they would not be hacked in the future and hence spending money on IT security was a irrational idea.
The British joined the EU with special conditions because their economy was in really bad shape. And now they want to leave to improve their economic position? This is really tragic. They seem to have decided that fucking themselves with a wire-brush is a really good idea. And now their moron-in-chief also wants a "hard" exit in addition? Well, we will miss you in the 1st world, that's for sure. And I am well aware that about half of you are _not_ terminally stupid. Makes it even more tragic.
Why would I believe any such moronic thing? 9/11 was just really cheap building coming back to bite them. The domino-effect of the floors is obvious. And vaccines? Why would anybody sane believe they do not work?
I take it you are a remnant of said PsyOps campaign. Know that you are a despicable waste of space and oxygen and the only way you could do something positive would be by killing yourself.
Ignoring ACs is not a "filter bubble". ACs cannot be identified and are sniping from the shadows, like, you know, cowards. Slashdot has pseudonymity, unless you do something stupid, you cannot be identified. That means many (not all) ACs are in it purely for the trolling.
Indeed. But true believers (that, by definition, ignore all evidence of any shortcomings of their chosen faith) will be unable to see their faith as "hype". This is quite normal and a sure way to identify what is going on with them.
@angel'o'sphere: You will never hire my as CTO, because I am not available to you. You do not have what it takes to impress me enough. My current CEO does.
That is what appears to have happened. In actual reality, it was not those treaties, but the push for something in that direction that made it happen. And that push would have just found another outlet without these treaties.
Do you have anything to back up that claim?
This is not a scientific publication site. This is/. Asking for evidence is rude.
That said, if you cannot see this given the idea, then no amount of actual evidence will convince you as this is obvious.

Now the problem about worker protection is that it is infeasible. Sure, if possible, it would be the thing to do, but it is not. If you start protecting the workers, you lose on other fronts and in the end the workers and up worse. We are seeing this now at all fronts: The time of the worker is over. They are less and less needed, globalization just shifted it for a while. We likely go towards a society were, in addition to the well-known 1%, we will also have the 10%, and that will those whose work is still needed because it cannot be automatized. The interesting question, and the one critical for survival as a society, is what to to with the remaining 89%.
Well, as globalization is a historical change that is basically inevitable and all that can be done is participate a bit slower (to the detriment of the local economy), Trump has the distinction that he has no problems blatantly lying about being able to do something here. The truth is that he cannot (and he is either utterly incompetent as a businessman, or he _knows_ that). The other truth is that no US president ever had any significant influence on that process, because that goes far, far beyond the power a US president has. So yes, I will call people that think their messiahs can reverse something that rather obviously cannot be reversed "stupid". These are the people that vote themselves bread and games until there is no bread and no games left and then they complain that somebody else did it to them.
Don't get me wrong, I have sympathy for the people in the situation you describe. It sucks and it should not happen to anybody in the modern world. But the cold, hard, ugly truth is that they have been mostly doing it to themselves and fight tooth and nail against anything that would actually improve their situation.

Marketing doe not care about serious comparisons or about truth for that matter. And as this is obviously a paid-for marketing piece...
Why else would we get to read obviously paid-for propaganda pieces about its supposed massive superiority?

They raise the bar considerably, especially as today's enterprises are multinational. That was not very common previous to WWI.

What are you talking about? Nobody has left the EU to this date. Maybe that is why the "leavers" are ignored?
Who would have thought. The next thing that happens is that the best ones leave for greener pastures where they _can_ close the door.
After two times, that gets lame as well...

The script is really not that interesting. Has it great landscapes and battles? Has it sex? No, just words. Boring.

He very likely does not. Good point and an extreme fail on his part. Fits right in with his other statements though.
I really do not care to address your insight-resistance and your superficial grasp of software engineering. That is why I will stop responding now.

Fail and fail and fail again. You have any effective intelligence? Seems not so.
I think 1984 called that "doublethink". The ability to do it is an absolute requirement for any self-respecting fanatic!
