For those into cars do you think the partnership with Nissan and Honda will yield exciting new vehicles at a lower price here in the states?

Hoping it will! Nissan has been in trouble for a while now and Honda stepping in may be the best thing that could happen. We’ll see how long it takes to hopefully get something good out of it. Interested, but cautious, there are still a lot of issues and I don’t think it’s predicted to be official until next year.

My first thought is probably not. My understanding of the deal is that it's more about economies and business decisions, not really design or engineering functions. And from what I recall reading, it wouldn't really be happening in full for a number of years. By that point, who knows what cars, or the car market, will even look like?

Consolidation typically drives prices lower to force out competition and then higher when the companies have eliminated as much competition as possible. Betting you see something similar. Consolidation is not typically good for consumers.

Anyone been able to work from Dubai for a UK/US firm and benefit from no taxes? I know if you are a US citizen you pay taxes where you are globally, but if you are British, then you only pay income tax on UK income - so if you live more than half the year abroad you are classed as non-domicile resident, but wanted to hear if anyone’s done this or heard about it?

Hi everybody! 😊
I've been working as a Junior Analog Design Engineer for a year and half.
I received a proposal for a Senior Analog Designer role from Bosch in the same city where I am currently working.
Should I wait and build up a few more years of experience before accepting a Senior role or should I jump in and work to fill the gap?
Next year, there will be an important deadline for the project I'm working on and my resignation could be critical for the team, how would you deal with it?
