No, because Germany doesn't have that big of an IT space. Aerospace and automotive would be good sectors to hit back with because they are more relatively important to Germany as IT is for the US.

China has done an awesome job in building a military that can win a war for Taiwan. They have a very strong integrated air defense system, enough short range missiles to effectively deny the South China Sea to surface vessels and enough lo

That could just be written off as "third party developers just aren't as good as Apple's".

Drugs that can't be commercially monetized can't get through the rigorous and extremely expensive approval process that allows your doctor to write you a script for something you can fill at the pharmacy. As for other treatments,

Why do you think a tech-growth S curve is the right model for civilization? Companies plateau and then eventually decline as do cultures and countries.

When hiring, I really strive to figure out what makes my positions special and then find people that are a good fit for what I can offer rather than trying to find some platonic ideal "best" candidate. So for me, other than a tox

It's not endowments that makes elite universities elite, it's a combination of social cachet, alumni networks, and brand. Cambridge, Oxford, and Sorbonne have been elite universities for centuries, and it's not mainly from t

So what does the transpiling get you in that world? You can already run the old code on modern hardware (per tfa) and you already have people who understand the existing assembly to help do a rewrite...
