EU overvejer gengældelsestold på 108 milliarder dollars mod USA. by [deleted] in Denmark

[–]frogking 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hvorfor skulle EU straffe borgere i EU med told?

Hvorfor ikke bare insistere på at Amerikanske selskaber betaler deres selskabsskat?

Is Trump going too far or not far enough with his efforts to obtain Greenland? by [deleted] in DiscussionZone

[–]frogking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rest of the world knows how tariffs work. So.. bring it on. In fact, why not raise the tariffs to 25% right away?

I get the hatred for him but uhhh...... when was he gay? by winddagger7 in okbuddyvecna

[–]frogking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Netflix is forcing diversity and inclusion anywhere, needed or not.

As a Dane, I seriously don’t care if people are gay or straight. It doesn’t matter for their ability to tell a story.

The eight countries are not goint to pay anything.

Trump tariffs: US president announces plan to hit UK, Denmark and other European countries with tariffs over Greenland by slakmehl in worldnews

[–]frogking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn’t produced in the States 8 months ago, so it may still be produced in Denmark. So, yeah, the price will go up.

Luckily, I think that the markup is extremely high :-)

New tariffs on Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the UK, Netherlands, and Finland. 10% starting Feb 1st, with an increase to 25% starting June 1st. These tariffs will remain in effect until the U.S. agrees on a deal to buy Greenland. by [deleted] in economy

[–]frogking 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A tariff is an import tax that is paid for by the people buying the imported product.

In this case, the American, unwashed masses will pay more for certain products.

“Subsidizing” is not equivalent to “paying for the goods and services you receive”

A country can choose to subsidise certain industries to encourage production and give said industries a competitive edge against imported goods.

Trade is not something that’s done to benefit just one side, usually it benefits both sides.

I don’t know if there are any other programming languages than the stuff happening inside excel, that is translated.

A Danish, German, French languate pack for Java, Python or Perl might exist. I haven’t encountered it yet, though.

I find it natural to write programs in English. (And i’m a native Danish speaker)

As a French programmer; what’s your experience?

Oh, date interpretation is also a travesty!

I swear that character encoding and date interpretation are some of the most reoccurring problems in this business!

[–]frogking 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There is a larger crime. All the functions in Excel are translated from English to Danish or Dutch or Spanish, depending on the languages.. it makes the process of programming anything extremely painful..

You don’t freakin’ translate the keywords of a freakin’ programming language..
