These companies are embracing an intense schedule, first popularized in mainland China, known as “996,” or 9 am to 9 pm, six days a week. That’s a 72-hour work week, in case you’re doing the math.

OPINION: One would rightly quail if just a few foreign firms owned Europe’s roads, ports or electricity grid. Yet, for 15 years, this is precisely what we’ve allowed to happen to our tech infrastructure — the backbone of our economy and democracy.
Digital sovereignty can’t be bargained away
The European Commission has tools, public support and a mandate to act on Big Tech. Trading that away for short-term calm would be a costly mistake.

A carga fiscal em Portugal voltou a aumentar no ano passado, apesar da diminuição das taxas de IRS para a maioria dos escalões. É um bom lembrete de que, mais do que a carga fiscal total, o que é importante é perceber como é que esta está distribuída 🧵

A carga fiscal voltou a subir, mas isso diz-nos pouco sobre a tributação dos diferentes grupos em Portugal.
