It would be great to see this CPU competing with the likes of AMD and Intel. I could even buy one, why not.
The Chinese are exceptionally smart people. East Asian average IQ is supposed to be 105. China produces far more STEM graduates than the West. China's population is 1.4 billion, easily surpassing the West (and the other East Asian nations). Chinese are extremely hard workers.
My prediction is that Chinese chip performance will match AMD, Intel and Apple within the next 5 years.
India is another engineering powerhouse. Like China, they have an enormous population and produce more STEM graduates than the West.
This is what Trump was talking about when he said Make America Great Again. The issue is not making the US into a faded 1950's paper super power that thinks it dominates the world. No, it's about surviving in an increasingly competitive world. We hardly make anything anymore. People need to wake up. And I don't mean 'woke'.
Actually you are only half right. You may have interpreted what Trump said about survival in your own words but was not his agenda. He was about the 50s paper superpower. He basically wanted to bottle us up and cut everybody else off at the knees when it comes to technology. Ideally if he could completely cut off foreign imports, or make Imports ridiculously expensive for us, we then will achieve total independence from the rest of the world. On top of that if he could cut everyone else off at the knees with technology his thinking would be that all countries would completely depend on us for everything.
These are not my own words. He wanted to control technology like we control nuclear production. These are words from former Trump aides who regret being a part of his cult.
And as most of you have found out. Once trump started playing with fire with the trade war and banning Huawei, China decided to say screw the US we will make our own instead of us watching China to fall to pieces and beg us for forgiveness like Trump was hoping. Even if we completely drop all tariffs against China they still are continuing on their mission to drop their dependence on US technology. Trump set that train in motion and that's not going to stop anytime soon. China will eventually not need us for anything anymore.
Ideally if Trump was following what you have stated he would have seen that we seriously have a lack of engineering graduates and engineering programs available in many schools at the start of middle school and up. He would have worked with schools to create programs that allowed everyone of equal opportunity to get into engineering. He would also promote Engineering in the same fashion as we already promote people joining the military, with a handful of benefits because you are going to use that education to contribute to our country and help us to reinnovate.
He would also work with schools to help improving the way math and science are taught.
You think this is too extreme? Many developing and third world countries are using this method so that way they can have graduates wanting to become engineers and contributing to the growth of their country. I really can't say the same about this country. Currently engineering academies, programs, and colleges of many states are Out Of Reach for many hopeful students because the tuition is incredibly expensive, also if they barely made it through High School they will easily flunk out of these colleges.
Look at how our education in math, science, Electronics, software development, programming, in other technology areas compared with the rest of the world. I have to say as a first world country I'm ashamed and appalled in our educational ranking in those subjects.
If I'm wrong how come many of the software developers in our country are from India and China. I worked at many large companies like such and they do get paid way more than me so the excuse for cheap labor goes out the window. I've talked with many of the managers of these software developing teams and they express their frustration with the shortage of people who really know their stuff and trying to weed through all the bullshitters. Unfortunately a lot of the bullshitters happen to be mostly American and European. These managers also don't want to hire somebody and teach them how to do coding. They need someone who can hit the ground running and fast.
Without a handful of Engineers who are not immigrants from India or China our country would be screwed as there's no way we could keep up. The only thing we have is our military. Maybe it's time to elect a president who understands this deficit and is going to fix this without starting trade wars or banning imports regardless which edge of the political fence you sit on.
