A direct line between County Cork and Loudon VA does not go through the east coast of Maryland on a spherical earth, that was the only point I addressed. Even if you wanted to maximize how much is laid in the ocean as opposed to land, there are still shorter distances that would land you on at least in Delaware. While I am sure there are logistical reasons to do it where they are doing, that is irrelevant to my point.
Yeah that sounds off. Probably mean digging at coastal shallower waters then just having it lay on the floor elsewhere, that's the standard.
That's assuming we live on a flat earth. A shorter line between County Cork and the US would have the US terminus much further north.
"We are crazy."
What's incredibly frustrating is how much of the craziness has been created and driven by Australians. Other countries want to push back against Trump? Go after the lunatics who fill his dementia-ridden head with all the crazy ideas, including their companies.

We are also (I assume) college educated professionals. Not the guys with hs diplomas being fired for being 4 minutes late from their potty break at Walmart where they are treated like kids and can't have their phones out etc. all for 35k a year.
These are American statistics of course. Terrible management who are a different breed rule blue collar jobs. It goes back to slavery and class structure for these roles.
Only 25% are college educated. Terrible work environments motives my education
Is it? Or were many wanting revenge and payback for increasing salaries since 2019 and doing remote work?
The frustrating thing is wages were constant from 2000 to 2019 for most folks. A few professionals they did skyrocket which skewed some data. As a system administrator 75k remained constant for 18 years! Now it is finally like 115k, but adjusted for inflation you are screwed if you tried to buy a home or rent today.
75k could get you a mcmansion in 2000. Today it is not enough for a starter home, even in an affordable area. It is 1 bedroom apartment only.
Meanwhile, CEOs and leadership are furious and think prices need to return not realizing at all that $ sign doesn't have the purchasing power it did for so many years. So yes people are angry at both sides.
You are in a minority.
Statistics I read is 75% of people hate their jobs. Be greateful!
I wonder if it has always been like this or were there times when that number was much lower?
It does impact these criteria as it shows bad leadership and management and culture.
If the culture is treating you like an assembly line worker when you are not, then that damages morale and kills loyality.
Employees who do not want to spend over 2 hours a day and $300 a month in gas just to join Teams meetings in a shared open office when they can do the same at home, so they can be watched by managers who do not believe in remote work or self atanomy and feeling stressed and disgusted by disrepect. SHOCKING!
Musk brought micro management and Style X Management from the 1950s back in style again, and away from Style Y and empowermment. It is all the rage now in leadership. Attendence, attendence, and attendence, and firing if you make a mistake. Forget about trying new innovative things and being creative.
THe pendelumn has swung back to the employers HARD from the employees and it is showing. I wonder if this is revenge syndrome from the C Suite who felt blackmailed to pay people more back when in 2019 they paid the same in 2005 and in office attendance where workers finally got a pay raise and gave the finger to in office work? Now the jobs are paying closer to 2020 levels.
Easy
Sony can't order chips 2 years ago that will be fast or up to date a chip from next year. That is not how technology works.
They can work on algorithms or existing hardware to do things at a much smaller scale, but if Sony/'AMD released chips every 2 to e 3 years it would be obsolete anyway.
As soon as a prototype is ready IT MUST GO LIVE within 4 to 6 months or Nvidia/Intel will beat them to the punch.
AMD and Sony have also partnered to make things off camera not render. AI assisted ray tracing researchi s almost done but that takes a efw years.
Obama love him or hate him is very popular.
People would live a return to the good old days. High grocery prices and rent is how Trump won. Plain and simple due to inflation Trump caused that Biden got the blame due to tarp payments and 0% interest rates and artificial scarcity all thrown in together.
I am not saying he should and 1/3 of America is hard core far right wing Maga and would go ballistic but they are not the majority
This is insanity. CNN and NBC are the only independent news networks left not owned by Murdoc and the Nationalists!
