8 months agoAs a Dutch engineer that worked at ASML for ~6 years: yes the Netherlands really really lacks skilled engineers of all sorts. This is not at all about wages, since ASML is one of the highest paying companies here.
It’s more costly for a company to relocate these types of foreign workers than simply hiring locals (like me).
Now I’m not saying ASML isn’t in for money, it’s just that they need more people to keep up with demand of their machines.
The album Colours from Graffiti6 was so good, I’m still mad about the crap album they released after that (it was also their last)…
And to a lesser extend, Miike Snow’s first album was sooo good. Everything they’ve put out after that was mediocre at best.
Alt-J has also been going down hill ever since the first album. It’s still decent, but if I had to rate the albums from good to bad, it would be equal to the release order. Saw them live two years ago and it was meh as well.
