Maybe thats better in the long run. The Cold War kept the US more on its toes and that benefited the world. We have another situation where dumb decisions the US makes will have a …

Your intro contradicts your conclusion and thats why I think this story isn't as clear cut as you make it. The US gained that reputation because of trust . China does not magically…

Nothing is really replacing this elsewhere though (although I do concede China is trying hard). Lets start with movies: Most top grossing movies are still American based and centri…

This is just my opinion so maybe im describing something other than what you are observing. This was me, until I got AI. Now im building cool stuff that I never would have built (b…

Yes I am very familiar with auto automation. They are amazing. Tesla went so overboard that maybe the ROI isn't even there for some processes (installing wheels on a car by industr…

Eh every house has elements of this and everyone learns the hard way. After struggling to install a new bathroom exhaust fan a few years ago in a house that was half built by someo…

They might if many of the white collar people that pay them can't afford to pay them anymore.

Factory workers maybe but all processes have to be redesigned with design for robotic automation in mind. That will displace a lot of people and they will naturally go into the tra…

This is exciting but what kinds of things are actually done to improve the price(like if people know the solution already then why not already do it?) and how do you determine 15 y…

Boston Dynamics has been at the game for a LONG time (1992 vs Unitree's 2016). During that time they slogged through a lot of fundamental work that from the outside looked like 0 b…

All Chinese companies are 996 companies and any that arent will eventually be replaced by a 996 company. Again vast oversupply of STEM labor serves as a forcing function(but is not…

Chinese work ethic driven by overproduction of STEM majors leading to 25% youth unemployment...also they probably stole a lot of the fundamental stuff that was super hard to produc…

So..does this data convey anything meaningful about her success?

The Silicon Spin intro and Cranky Geeks theme song are burned into my head. I was in elementary school watching ZDTV after school instead of doing my homework. One of those shows t…

The first link is too broad and would send me on a goose hunt with no payoff. all the other links pulled up nothing when i searched the last name only. I mean you are welcome to pr…

It remains to be seen if this will stick. The jury is still out: In favor of this: US is having trouble projecting its desires onto others now. Its citizens are not in a good spot,…

>Hollywood and the startup world enables nepo kids to lie to themselves and to the public about their "selfmade" status until they receive their ancestral Lordship from the King of…

The country first and foremost should serve all its citizens. Not just wealthy people and not just people of the dominant ethnic background. The xAI data centers sits right next to…

We'll find out in about 100 days!

Well just to clarify as I am not sure if you understood what I am saying but when I said wiggle room I was referring to the different standards of enforcement applied by different …

10 years ago I walked right past the French immigration officer by accident because I didn't know where I was going. He yelled at me to get back in line, quickly stamped my passpor…

Did you use any AI to help you build this? If so, thats cool but if not, you are even cooler. This is the dream. Imagine cutting out the fat with open hardware, experienced devs (a…

Work Culture is famously bad? Look I get 996. The Youth seem like they are either next level burned out or on a treadmill that never ends(due to the 25% youth unemployment, the def…

>China is always at the edge of some massive collapse any day now. Yeah but my comment "This is a country that has overexpanded in infrastructure which will come home to roost soon…

I guess I didn't explain it clearly enough. For the US to stop mattering some other big guy will have to start mattering. I just don't see any country really taking on that mantle …
