Since you obviously ignorant of how it works. When you get a degree you get a transcript where all local grades are translated to to ECTS, which you then would use to apply for jobs. Of course in the tech industry grades or even whole degrees are generally disregarded but in finance and other fields they of course, are.

Other than this questionable browser CA thing, do you think there are any specific flaws with the crypto system presented in eIDAS.

University grades are standardised already. This is useful because it allows people to work in other countries, digitally signing them prevents fraud.

This is just one use case for eIDAS, then you have things like interacting with different government institutions, banks, et cetera, et cetera.

There are a lot of people who live in/work/visit other EU countries as is their near absolute right. We should therefore standardise technology on the EU level to make their lives easier.

Generally your refusing to answer can be used against you, ensuring that you are properly represented of course isn't

I mean the whistleblower (even if anonymous) probably ends their career by doing it. 30mm might not be worth it for a high-level exec so to me it makes sense to have it uncapped.

Seems similar to the GDPR, which IMO has been a huge success.

I'm sorry that it will hurt your quarter of a million dollar pay checks. Here we value consumer protection and that's how things will stay.

If your perspective so Anglo-centric that you can't interpret EU administrative law then you will do well to stay out of that market.

Speaking of, does anybody have a Bluesky invite and feel like sharing?

I don't mean to be rude but certain aspects of Russian Culture make authoritarian rule inevitable. Some of has to do with Orthodox religious values and some of it has to do with perceived misrule of the country in times where things were more free.

And that's exactly what they have, specifically they have a unique form of corporate taxation that means that only dividends are taxed at the end of the FY.

It is not insane, far too many orgs are asking how can we shoehorn blockchain into X. The end-result is usually some vaporware, some weird commercialisation, or outright fraud. Libreoffice is a foundation, it should act in accordance with its charter. The public, likewise, should hold its officers accountable for acting in a way best serves these ends.
