  • I don't agree, I see Latin American people in lower ranks but not often and never met one in management position besides myself. And I can spot them from big distance and even separate them from Philippinos who tend to have the same last names.

  • We've got people from all the continents, but mostly Asia.

    Earlier this year at work each team put out a flag for each team member, and across like 100 flags there was surprisingly little repetition besides predictably China and India. Australia was maybe in 5th place.

    My team has 15 people and we joked that our only Australian was a diversity hire.

    We do software development in case you didn't guess yet.

  • And that's the definition of capitalist vs working class. A top surgeon makes a lot of money yes, but they are still working class because their main income is from salary.

    Earning a big salary or buying some stocks don't make anyone a capitalist. Being the owner of Johnson and Johnson, hiring an administrator and not working a day in your life does. And that's the kind of people who get richer with any crisis, holds the biggest part of Johnson and Johnson profits, and pays no tax at all.

  • People talk about Apple only but every competitive chip designer (which Intel is not) depends on TSMC, so they all get set back.

    But TSMC gets to close, and what's more dangerous for the political stability of Taiwan is that since they don't have oil they lose West military protection.

  • Not all foundries are the same. Taiwan is leading the way for quite a long time.

    There's a lot of money in both intellectual property and physical manufacturing. Trying to do an analogy with software is unfair because in software most of the costs is labor, and once the first copy is made you can make and sell as many extra copies as you want. Physical manufacturing needs machine maintenance, and expensive materials in this case.

  • Sounds like a 3rd world ultra capitalist creepy story. I grew up in center right 3rd world (Brazil) and that would make it a truthful but funny snectode.

    Now I'm in center center 1st world (Australia) and we've got passed a law a few months ago to not bother employee for bullshit.

    I though why did we fn need a law for that, then your story reminds me.
