yes.
Huawei's real mistake is that they disrupt the silicon tech leadership of intel and other traditional vendors in that space, with a number of --- in hindsight ---- excellent strategic moves, for example
* they now hold a "controlling" majority of G5 mobile patents
* they are a strong and serious player in automotive
* ASIL D real time kernel for automotive functional safety
* integrated platform from microcontroller all the way to Android-alike in the UI
* this is unlike BOSCH, Continental, Renesas, Delphi/APITIV, etc, who were blocked by the traditional car vendors to create such a platform
* "Huawei aims at becoming a BOSCH" https://tcrn.ch/3v7O4z1
* serious cloud player
* serious player end to end in the mobile market (from backend via physical broadcast network to mobile phones and OS on top)
the list could go on and on
oh, and their ownership structure is spread ownership by employees. the majority shareholder is the founder with a whopping 1.9% of shares.
afaict they pay like FAANG/MAAMA/... and offer very comparable possibilities for personal development.
they are doing pretty much everything right while the traditional wealth has no control over them.
and _that_ is something "the West" fights nails and toes.
- mafribe 4y agoHuawei has also become one of the main Linux kernel contributors, e.g. https://news.itsfoss.com/huawei-kernel-contribution/ https://news.itsfoss.com/huawei-kernel-contribution/ We read a lot on HN about Apple's M1 and how it was the first customer of TSMC's 5nm process. In fact, Huawei had bought the initial slot TSMC's 5nm process, and it was only the sanctions against Huawei that forced TSMC to reneg on its contracts and give them to Apple.
