"It was related to me by a Chinese colleague that some young people in China mostly use Pinyin and can barely write any characters, since cellphones take care of turning the Pinyin into characters." Very true! Which means technolo

Very good point! Is it non-controversial to assume a randomness generator in a fundamental thought experiment? Also macro state. It is hard to see how the deterministic part of QM could be inconsistent. However the interpretation of its app

Not sure what your anger is aimed at. In the US as a foreigner you can not work without a work visa. Employment opportunities are reserved for US residents first. To start a business you need a business visa https://business-law.

The other thing to note when doing a compare and contrast is that China is a high savings country with no shortage of capital. Maybe in the very beginning of the reform and opening era they did but it hasn't been the case for over two

Why do you deserve level playing field? The rules always favor locals. No foreigner can just come to the US to work or try to make a fortune from scratch. You need to bring something special: capital or knowledge/skills. Why do you exp

Pretty sure she would not travel to Canada knowing that an arrest warrant is outstanding. Why is it kept secret? Is it that important to nab her? Could be a huge headache for Canada.

No one at ZTE was criminally charged. Though the indictment could be sealed and we may not know until they travel to a country that complies with American arrest request.

Chinese trademarks, patents and copyrights are monopolies granted by the Chinese government (note, not the US government) to rights owners and have power only within China.

This is mostly pertaining to administrative cases, which can be quickly resolved. I am surprised there is actually such a thing in China. These are not court cases so they don't have the same power. It seems here they are trying to enh

There is a lot of inaccurate reporting on this. Fentanyl and many analogs have been controlled substances in China for some times. However chemists keep on coming out with new variations of the chemical that are not on the list. Now China p

As I said earlier it is not just about profit at the margin to put a plant in China, it is about showing good faith with the government. Intel's technology lead is relative. It faces competitors like Loongson (MIPS), ARM licensees, AMD

You need customers who use your equipment to close the product improvement cycle. Both Japan and South Korea have (or had) competitive chip manufacturers who could help their domestic suppliers improve. Chinese equipment makers don't h

We were talking about a packaging plant, not a fab. Edit: I understand it may be confusing, as the thread started with Intel doing packaging at Chengdu but moved onto the broader manufacturing question. But the foreign fabs mostly are Asian

Your whole premise is that China can't do it on their own, which is proved false by the supercomputer chip ban. Now Intel not only lost their market, China actually gained the capability and revenue to support future R&D. Your lead

Why does packaging a chip depend on cheap water? No. You put your factory there to show good faith with the Chinese government: that you're in their corner, you can be depended upon and you are willing to share some of the gains.

It is probably true for the proverbial early birds who went to China, but these days grants won't be that easy unless you are established or well-connected. There are also a lot of complaints about "politicized tenure track system

It is not allowed in China either if you are referring to the recent gene editing experiment. The researcher is widely denounced in China and will likely be in legal trouble.

Your criticism is very valid. But saying only the majority benefits is very different from claiming that the purpose is to oppress everyone, isn't it? That is what the gp was angered by and responding to.

Yes that is what it was designed to do. Of course if your code calls out to some library implemented in native you will need to substitute with the js equivalent. Bucklescript has special syntax for you to describe the FFI to js, like Types

Reason = syntax for OCaml. Bucklescript is a transpiler to js. You can use other transpilers if you want but Bucklescript is great and has tightly integrated support. The best way to experience it is to just follow the "npm install&quo

I see confusion about reference frame. It is perfectly okay to say something is happening at 1 million light years away. And there is no ambiguity within our presumed Earth reference frame. Of course we won't know for another million y

Reason itself is an alternative syntax for OCaml. The developers have built great support for React but in principle you can do whatever you can do with JS.
