You liked #Amazon mechanical #turks and #Keynian #AI workers? May I introduce #outsourcing your #customerservice to #refugee #camps
@theregister I can't follow. The risks did not change that much with #Trump.
Dependency to the #cloud was a bad move in many cases already before. It wasn't about risks, it was about prioritizing money as long as #outsourcing was cheaper. Now, companies often aren't in a position to self-host any more because we've lost #knowhow or resources.
You can blame many things on Trump but not this.
Berkshire paid $26.8 billion in US Taxes in 2024. (~5% of total Corp taxes).
- We should tax corporate revenue and rebate US Wages. Highly profitable companies in the US are not paying taxes.
This will tax AI, Investments, Outsourcing, etc., more than labor.
We should incentivize payments to US labor and US wages over outsourcing, AI, and investment activity.

Painful: When your company has outsourced their IT support to #india and you have let one of their online techs "take control of your computer" .
You then get to sit and watch them furtively click around and try stuff you've already tried to see if anything fixes the issue.
Today in Labor History January 20, 1986: Bruce Springsteen's "My Hometown" topped the music charts on this date. The song, a eulogy for dying industrial cities, includes the lines: "Now Main Street's whitewashed windows and vacant stores / Seems like there ain't nobody wants to come down here no more / They're closing down the textile mill across the railroad tracks / Foreman says these jobs are going boys and they ain't coming back to your hometown / Your hometown / Your hometown / Your hometown . . ." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77gKSp8WoRg

Oh, ich bin mir sicher, dass sie das möchte. Allerdings wird sie genauso wie in der #EU allgemein vor den notwendigen teuren und sehr langfristigen Maßnahmen wieder zurückschrecken - wie immer, wenn's d'rauf ankommt.
Nennt mir bitte ein Gegenbeispiel, wo wir unserer verlorene digitale Eigenständigkeit wesentlich(!) zurückerlangt haben.
Dabei wäre es soooo wichtig für sehr viele kommende Generationen. Wir verlieren schon seit zu vielen Jahren massiv #KnowHow durch #Outsourcing, #Cloud, usw..

Make or Buy? That’s the question. Make - develop internally. Buy - external assistance like outsourcing, outstaffing, and more. Strategic staffing models like outsourcing, nearshoring, offshoring, and BPO (Business Process Outsourcing) are reshaping how companies scale and adapt.
Every staffing strategy has its benefits and challenges. The key to adaptability lies in choosing the right model:
• Nearshoring suits cosmopolitan companies seeking to avoid culture shock.
• Offshoring works for cost-efficient backend work on large projects.
• BPO is ideal for companies willing to fully delegate certain processes.
By adopting the right approach, businesses can respond quickly, grow sustainably, and stay competitive.
