The need for China to de-risk from US controlled supply chain should lead to the emergence of new domestic champions in every sector of industry. Interesting to see which ones survive and thrive

you're right. It is little different from fascism. However, I still think there is friction whenever commercial contracts are concerns - looking at legal agreements, transfer of money etc. At least we can say this is the 'least ef

I like the fact there's actually commercial transactions here, seems like at least an additional layer of friction to access the data of US citizens. Imagine if the data owners was a government department, there would be seamless, alwa

no idea - my interest is primarily on media shapes the 'cognitive environment' The fact that something is publicly advertised as 'secret' should tell us something. No sourcing provided from the FT, the media outlet selec

we are mobile eco-systems, which have somehow achieved consciousness and therefore mistakenly think of ourselves as individuals. It's the wrong unit of analysis

So secret that it was released to Financial Times, before being amplified by the Guardian, and no doubt the rest of the mainstream press outlets. Creating a media furore is a basic pressure technique used to influence policy of democratic g

All societies have speech prohibitions, countries differ mainly on what domains are prohibited and how transgressions are policed. CNN also inadvertently makes a good point - at which point is there too much freedom of speech? We know tha

Crazy how witness testimony remains cited as evidence in a court of law. Pretty clear that we cannot trust our own recollections, regardless of our commitment to honesty

actually agree with everything you've said - aside from the last line. Educated is hugely over rated for the vast majority of combat work. Look at Ukraine / Russia - which has devolved into an attritional battle of conscript soldi

"Smarter troops do their jobs better" agree with this but academic qualifications do not map to being smart. There are different ways in which intelligence can be measured, I am sure the DOD will be using more effective measures t

Asianometry is so good. AFAIK this is one guy - cranking out company / industry / country case studies of such high quality, it shames the incumbent media producers

This is a good move - academic qualifications are an inadequate proxy for the skills and mentality needed to succeed in combat roles. Just look at the enemies that the US has fought over the decades - rice paddy farmers in Vietnam, illitera

27% of Lockheed Martin's revenue comes from F35. At nearly 1000 airframes ordered, it is one of the most popular fighter planes ever conceived. Despite teething issues, it is a hugely successful programme

Glad to see this post in The Economist. "The Internet" is probably close to 99% English. I believe there are efforts to train LLM's in various European languages - Dutch are doing something, French of course. However, I doubt

China de-risking from US controlled internet is really ambitious - if they pull it off, it might become the only country that achieves digital sovereignty. I expect Russia, Iran and other designated enemies of the US to try and follow suit
