This will have no adverse affects on wages, there is definitely skill shortages in IT and nursing in the EU, anyone mentioning immigration is a racist xenophobe, there is no comparison to the UK nor Canada, do not talk about the huge amount of outsourcing to India already happening, your personal experiences are racism, is it cold in Russia?

Did I miss anything?


Edit: can't parse sarcasm.


They're missing an /s.


And a VC. VCs are famously known for supporting unions, railing against wage suppression, directly supporting higher wages, advocating protective policies etc. /s


Yep, VCs like alephnerd totally represent the views of the average EU working class.


2% definitely sounds about right for the US...bahaha


A re-blog with a single small paragraph of comment added? Just post the original source


How many cloud providers accept fully anonymous cash payments?


Of course Rusform UK promise to repeal it - they want Russian trolls to have as much unfettered access to the British public as possible


Makes me giggle as Russian citizen since very similar rhetoric was used when establishing internet censorship in RU - let's protect our citizens from evil foreign entities from the internet.


Councillors have a totally different role though and aren't involved in creating legislation


Yeah, also they could be male. Don't take it so literal, the point I'm making is about going and physically meeting people, not about what title/label those people have.


Yeah, fair enough, just didn't want people to waste their time with the councillors regarding national legislation


Source?


I mean maybe something of merit in that, but Spain has nearly 4000km of hitherto excellent and safe high speed rail and Switzerland around 200 km. Who should be giving lessons to whom? ;) Totally different scale of operations


Your comparison is nonsense and using nonsense metric.


Spain having built 20x more HSR than Switzerland in absolute terms, and much more HSR in terms proportional to country size, does actually does give them the right not to be lectured on HSR by a tiny country with a well-known superiority complex - especially when it's a cheap, incoherent shot soon after a tragedy.

I could make a cheap shot about fires in bars...but I won't.


You seem to have some serious anger issue unrelated to the fact that you tried to use distance as the only proxy metric for relevance of experience of rail operators.

Distance isn't even remotely relevant to complexity of running safe operations.

Data like fatalities per 1 million kilometers driven is significantly more relelvant - all metrics at which Swiss railways significantly exceed any European rail despite operating at significantly larger density of traffic.

Spanish railways have lately killed a horrifying amount of passengers - perhaps instead of insulting more competent operators, it's time to look at what keep going wrong there? Any responsible person would call for experts and advice here - e.g. we commonly see thet in air safety where foreign safety experts are invited to investigate and provide their own reports and recommendations.

What you seem to be doing here is something directly opposed to it and very very toxic - nationallistically trying to insults others and save face, which is very contraproductive for future safety.


> You seem to have some serious anger issue

Ad hominem so I'll discard most of your post. You lose when you try to insult my character.

> Spanish railways have lately killed a horrifying amount of passengers

Swiss bars have lately burned a horrifying amount of customers. Get your own house in order :)
