It helps, Ms. Hsiao said, that appreciation in Washington has grown “for Taiwan as a democracy, as a force for good, and as a true partner of the United States.” At the same time, she said, the threat from a Chinese government that talks of absorbing Taiwan weighs heavily.

個人自覺的故事

矽谷裁員潮
最近矽谷幾家大公司接連裁員,可謂幾家歡樂幾家愁。在美國,裁員和換工作是稀鬆平常的事情,之前大公司加碼搶人、小公司搶不到人才,現在有點機會了。
回想起我2000-2005在矽谷那雲霄飛車般的五年,一開始公司在意氣風發時大舉聘人,泡沫化之後連著幾波裁員,其間我持有的第一張股票/條跌到原有的1/5不到,房價估值只剩65%,家有高額的貸款、兩個小孩要教養,綠卡因為911後全面凍結而卡住,沒有綠卡要跳槽別家也難(不然會考慮去Google?),如果被裁員的話,可能就要被迫離境了。
那時候Sun Micro致力於留下核心的工程研發團隊,我的專長對公司有其重要性,工作算是穩當,而且每年加薪,但在這種坐困愁城的情況下,心境總不會太好。即便我自認神經算大條的,竟然也曾夢見被資遣而驚醒。不過,我也藉此開始意識到自己真正需要的是什麼,開啟了一些自我探索的旅程。
後來矽谷在2004年谷底反彈,但我覺得自己對矽谷人生已有夠多的體驗,世間還有其他可關注的地方和人事物。當初希望成為科技新貴的夢想雖未成真,但在規劃之外的自我探索之旅,倒是意外地深刻豐富。
如同我上一篇文末提到的,應變能力是關鍵,尤其對科技人生而言。不過科技人最好不要自我設限,科技之外的世界很寬廣,心物交融的境界更是有趣,不多去體驗是很可惜的事。

看美國各大科技公司紛紛裁員(過去疫情中營業旺,多請進許多員工,得吐回就業市場)。最近消息是Google 母公司也是如此。尤其是微軟號稱幾月之後,各項服務要多掛AI 應用程式;Google 只好請回兩合創公司元老共商AI 策略或大計。

這些,或許是好事呢。
谷歌的母公司 #Alphabet 週五表示,將裁員12000人,這相當於其總雇員數量的6%。在這一波科技公司的裁員大潮中,Alphabet和微軟的裁員力度接近,分別有6%和5%的職工被解僱。而臉書母公司的裁員比例則高達13%。在全球擁有150萬雇員的電商平台亞馬遜的情況則不盡相同,在物流領域裁員較少,但是辦公文員崗位的裁員幅度相對較大。
