I’ve often wondered if the support is better if one is on the “correct”side of the Atlantic.

At a minimum, one would have the benefit of having time zone alignment with Engineering staff.

“We’re waiting for Engineering in Germany to get back to us.” is a common refrain.

>That's why they have no international tech companies

Well, they do have SAP. Though based on what I've heard their support is not exactly top notch


And Software AG, Amadeus, Infineon, NXP, ASML, Adyen, etc.


Don't forget about Siemens!


Sincere question: Is the second half of your assertion that U.S. government is directing/coordinating the conduct of the Israeli military or that their lack of action makes them makes them equally culpable/complicit in said actions?


A common view is the USA is partly responsible through their continued supply of weapons to Israel.


I couldn't agree more.

I’m addition to all of the canonical texts folks have posted here, it might be worth noting the ACM has a publication in which they define what makes a complete Computer Science curriculum:

https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/240483.240502

This is behind their paywall, and I would not discourage you from paying, but someone might be able to find the same document with a simple web search.
