Almost all European visa programs have the last bullet point with the stipulation that they have 90 days to find another visa sponsorship job if they leave their sponsor.

These are very similar financial engineer dynamics that drove the large outsourcing drive in the late and early 2000s.
Europe is going to have to pick up the tab for the inevitable refugee and migrant crisis that will result from a wider war in the region - which they won’t be able to afford thanks to Trumps 5% military spending demand.
Imagine what it means for Europe if a fraction of 90 million people (5 times larger than Syria) suddenly find themselves in a situation that would necessitate fleeing for survival.
“It's the 20th mass resignation from a science journal since 2023 over various points of contention.”
You can also checkout the track record of Shell in Nigeria to answer your question.
It wasn’t uncommon in the 80s-90s to meet an Eastern European, Asian or Jewish immigrant who came from a STEM background but for a variety of reasons couldn’t work in their field once they moved to the US so they worked as store clerks or taxi drivers.
Perhaps the differences your talking about isn’t cultural but rather dependent on what economic and education class the immigrant parents came from.

> The paper contrasts Nigerian newcomers with those from Somalia, whose work ethic is similarly strong, but whose lack of education hurts their employment prospects here.
> The authors wrote: “Overall, African-born immigrants aged 16 and over have a higher rate of employment (69.2%) relative to the foreign-born population (63.1%) and the general US population (59.9%).”
The study also notes significant differences between Nigerian immigrants, who mostly come from that country’s south, and Somalis. For one thing, with its history of British colonization, many more Nigerians speak English upon arrival in the U.S. than do Somalis. That makes the Nigerians’ transition easier in almost every respect.
“For the Nigerian-born immigrants, the proportion that possesses at least a bachelor's degree is 60.5%,” Chikanda said. “But when we look at the Somali-born population ... that's about 15%.”
In one case I know someone who had chronic health issues who had to change doctors after one year because her former GP (who was quite young) kept insisting her health issues were phycological. Her new GP (quite experienced) was able to identify several of the physical root causes to her complaints within months of her first visit and provide appropriate treatment afterwards. I see this pattern repeated with May of my other friends who have chronic health conditions and have had to deal with both health care systems.
I have two theories why this school of thought is gaining popularity in the west;
* Allows over worked or inexperienced doctors to easily dismiss patients because in their view they’re triaging patients complaints.
* Overloaded healthcare system is able to reduce the care patients need by effectively gas lighting them by saying “you need to need your lentils health”, “deal with your trauma” instead of seeing specialists and doing tests.
Women don’t belong to some secret organisation that go around testing men for their viable “genetic strength”.
In fact the age of the father is one of the only variables that have been shown to correlate with the prevalence of Asperger in children.
I found it to be “ok” and sometimes terrible.
* no bike lanes (even though my country is famous for them)
* public transit sometimes recommends longer routes
* terrible UI for public transit. Specifically in how times are communicated for multi-mode routes.
* worse POI discoverability then google maps
* missing places and businesses
Some countries that come to mind would be the Netherlands, Germany, the nordics.
An added bonus to this is that your family will be able to benefit from the strong family support programs that these countries offer - tax breaks, grants, friendly city planning which gives children more independence.
Flickr as a tool is very focused on creators. Once you start using it you realize that the company isn't optimizing for clicks and content consumption. This results in a product and community who’s standard of quality is leagues ahead of anything else one the internet. The idea of “an influence” just doesn’t exist within Flickr. It actually reminds me a lot of the internet before the FAANG monopolies.
They’ve identified a niche in the market and they are now striving to serve that niche the best they can. IMO Flicker is a radical tech company operating complete counter to the omnipresent hyper growth “conquered the world” mindset that pervades tech. I think they would make a good case study of how to build an online community that doesn’t try to optimize for engagement.
Do you have spruces to back up these claims?
I don’t think you can downplay the role of foreign capital and multi-nationals In South Africa’s economic problems for the past two decades - for example the role that The Guptas, McKinsey and KPMG all played in looting the state.
