<p>Europe has plenty of hardware if you look outside of the top 70 companies by market cap.  Even in this arbitrary selection, GP missed Arm.</p>

<p>Judging by rank is a bad metric anyway.  Why should ST, Infineon, NXP, Arm (UK, not EU), Airbus, Safran, etc. be considered irrelevant because they are not in the top 70 or 100?</p>

<p>> Heck, didn’t New Caledonia see a wave of protests that were crushed in the past year or two?<p>Yes, that's why the risk is NOT the same between French Guiana and New Caledonia.  Both of them are oversea territories far from the mainland with a colonial past, but their current relationship with the mainland is very different.<p>Around a quarter of the population of New Caledonia has been calling for independence for decades at this point, with 3 referendum organised during the last 10 years to resolve this issue.  Only half of the population was able to vote to the referendums (and some local elections, like Congress of NC), due to local rules than are about to change–this, incidentally, is the cause of the protests you are talking about.  On the geopolitical side of things, the independentists are probably propped up by Azerbaijan (<a href="https://www.courrierinternational.com/article/geopolitique-nouvelle-caledonie-moscou-sourit-et-bakou-jubile_233281" rel="nofollow">https://www.courrierinternational.com/article/geopolitique-n...</a>) and maybe China (<a href="https://www.lefigaro.fr/international/ambitions-geostrategiques-ressources-enviables-pourquoi-la-chine-etend-son-influence-en-nouvelle-caledonie-20230725" rel="nofollow">https://www.lefigaro.fr/international/ambitions-geostrategiq...</a>).<p>None of this holds for French Guiana.  The risk between these territories is not the same.  At all.  Putting them on the same level by reducing them to their status as former colonies is nonsense.</p>

<p>“Vulnerable to the US” can mean so many things that it practically loses all meaning.  Even with a launchpad in continental Europe, they have many ways to interfere with this project, from disrupting the supply chain to carpet bombing the launch site.</p>

<p>Although you're right about the history of French Guiana, using that term to put on the same level as New Caledonia is nonsense.  (Same goes for Martinique.)</p>

<p>I do not think so, but anyway, it is definitely not a proof that we are further decoupling ourselves from the US, which is the claim made in the root comment.  France has launched rockets from France for decades.  Being an ocean away does not make Kourou reliant on the US.</p>

<p>If they are strictly increasing our already unsustainable emissions level, yes.  Eg. I am very much in favour of replacing coal and gas power stations with nuclear power stations, banning cars from city centres, etc.</p>

<p>> It seem like the normal mode (protected flight envelope) is just encouraging bad habits?<p>Maybe, but at the same time it helps avoiding crashes like Sriwijaya 182 or Flydubai 981.  Airbus has shown that planes with fly-by-wire and any kind of flight envelope protection (A320 and newer, A220, B777 and 787, etc.) experience less fatal accidents and less hull losses than planes with traditional controls (A300, A310, B737, etc.), even today: <a href="https://accidentstats.airbus.com/fatal-accidents/" rel="nofollow">https://accidentstats.airbus.com/fatal-accidents/</a><p>Unfortunately, these safety improvements mean that we only hear about cases where automation fail to help, like in the case of AF447, but not cases where it prevented an accident.</p>
