I have just stumbled over a project that was developed as part of that fund. Super minimal probably the funding and obviously only a start, but this has a 'dutch flair' of being practical, usable etc. As always: please send people to teach the germans about how to build things (2 extra cookies if you teach us how to *Railway*)
I do think the way to success for EU is to start with this little elements. Maybe EU cloud infra later relies on one little OS component that is still maintained by 3 people - not one ;).
If we invest our time in something else than cloning hyperscalers - maybe there is a silver lining in form of a technological jump on the horizon. What about a Eurocloud that is a distributed system and not a 'monolith by monopoly'. The Systems we replace are not cheap, so there is even money on the table. Building EU hyperscalers just would suck OS projects dry of their 'IP' and siff money to a account on the caimans or UAE somewhere. Not building them is the way.
Maybe not make this a 'bring US startup culture to europe' thing as well? It leads to monopolies and a lot of 'loosers'. Not a super efficient way to build what in fact is infrastructure.
* Decline the job for reasons that you explain to the HR department: He asked you out on a date in a professional setting (I must inform you .... I regret ... best regards). Writing this in a friendly form (the HR person receiving this mail has not asked you for a date). This person will be up in arms for you. You will receive a very very friendly call from someone up the foodchain.
See, it happened in person .. so you cant prove shit. But if you are a boss.
* Do not send the mail CC to the interviewer
* Close the mail friendly with best regards
* Document what you can. I guess the interviewer did not do this in written form.
* Go on and strike this company off the list of companies that you aspire to work for. Do not believe this was an single incident. When hiring people everything should be extra shiny (normally you discover problems after starting).
So with 15 years experience in the field: that shop is crap!
One thing: The tech job market is a sellers market. More people want to hire than there are able engineers. You are not the one asking for something only. The company is as well. A work relationship must be on the basis of a mutual understanding what is ok and what not. Seems you have a difference here.
Good luck for the job hunt. The good companies are out there (and many people who can show you the way for harassment free work experiences).
