In Germany. In Europe. And yes, my family history with and Germany \u2013 and Europe for that matter &#8211; is complicated. I still say that using technology to build a stronger European Defense is a good thing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There needs to a mindset shift in the tech scene. We need to embrace innovation as a means to preserving the rights we enjoy in democratic countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the time and the place for the tech scene to put the passion they showed for the business in sectors such as gig economy (reference to recent layoffs at Gorillas) into defending European freedom. I know that many techies have shied away from military applications and even military suppliers, but I strongly believe the mindset needs to change.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is time for us to learn from the past and live in the present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHistory does not repeat itself but it rhymes\u201d \u2013 Mark Twain<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A child of the Cold War, I grew up hearing stories and learning deeply about World War 2.
