  • I agree that from our current position, things look dire. But there have always been big changes in industries that not only eliminated part of the workforce, but on the other hand provided new opportunities.

    To be honest, I don’t really know how this might work out. Maybe there will be a new wave of junior startups that have their prototypes ready in half the time with smaller teams. Maybe something else.

    It’s probably rooted in my optimism and my trust in people being creative in new situations. I hope I’m not just being naive.


  • It’s mainly just the course of the current administration. Chances are high that the conflict is fought on the political stage and the market only.

    We still have to see how the situation in Ukraine plays out. But I don’t see the potential for a military conflict including Europe and the US here.

    The Trump administration will hopefully be replaced in January 2029, and up to then, it’s not unlikely Dems take back the congress in 2026. Not a major push to progressivism, but it can help to contain the current national extremism.

    I’m not too optimistic about a real regime change, but I reckon that affairs will normalize somehow and Europe and the USA arrange themselves in their new positions.
