- Wine consumption in the EU is expected to continue falling over the next ten years driven by ongoing changes in how and what people drink, according to new findings from the European Commission.
- The group’s EU Agricultural Outlook 2025-35 expects wine consumption in the EU will decline 0.9% a year until 2035 to roughly 19.3 litres per capita, a 9% decrease on consumption per capita between 2021 and 2025.
The organization chooses to operate like this, if they wanted to fix the systematic issues, they would. It sounds, from your observations, they do not want nor intend to fix the systemic issues. You cannot solve problems the organization does not want to solve. You can provide recommendations and guidance, they choose whether to implement or fix.
Once you find your next job and you’ve safely moved on, drop a tip to Brian Krebs and let them know who it is while sticking to facts, if you’re so inclined, no obligation to do so.

"Security is for losers"
> Andy Yen, the CEO of Proton, had a message for an employee in the company’s security Slack channel who urged the company to at least take a few days to pentest newly written code before pushing it live. “That’s bullshit and loser thinking. Of course it’s possible to be fast and secure,” Yen wrote in the channel at the end of August. “Stop thinking always of how to be slower, and focus more on how to be faster.” In a follow-up message, Yen reiterated his point: “only losers think like that.” His ultimate message for the team was to “stop lovingly handcrafting all our code and use AI more.”
