USA is trying to keep China from competing on AI, preventing them access to the same high end chips the west have.
But I don’t think it’s working, China simply has a way to massive well educated talent mass, and they are investing heavily too.
I think USA would be better off allowing Nvidia to compete equally, taking away 25+% of their market isn’t helping USA/Nvidia, it’s only helping the Chinese newcomers getting customers that would otherwise use Nvidia.

Essentially USA is helping their competitors get better financing.

One of the impressive things about chips ever since the 70’s, is how they’ve become ever denser and ever more powerful, so they are now more than 50 thousand times more complex, going from little more than a thousands, to 50 billion transistors as per 5 years ago! Yet modern chips remain very reliable, and the biggest vulnerability is not inherent, but from targeted hostile attacks against them.

It’s almost as if the industry knows very well what they are doing.

The headline is moronic, but of course the progress of chips will slow down, and heat is one of the factors.

In Europe Tesla isn’t even #1 on EV anymore, they have been surpassed by VAG aka Volkswagen Group.
Depending on how you compare, they are probably a little bit more expensive, but also higher quality.

For lane change it’s ok.

You can disagree with it, but the DOT states that you need to maintain a minimum distance between you and the vehicle in front of you, in respect to reaction time.

As if everybody doesn’t already know that.
You can maintain distance for instance because you are standing still, or rolling slowly towards a cross with traffic. And see the distance to the car in front you despite it isn’t the only focus of attention. Also in bright conditions the blinker is not as visible as in darker conditions.

You should NEVER stop blinking before the turning maneuver is finished. 3 times blinking does that, and in fact should be illegal IMO. It makes drivers lazy about their blinkers. My own car has it, and I hate it. It’s a moronic feature.

If you stop blinking even before you started to turn, it’s very confusing. Did you change your mind, or do you just suck at signalling?

Thanks, he is usually pretty good, but I haven’t seen that one.

For sure USA will lose exports in a very profitable market.

I will be very surprised if China can’t make their own competitive AI chips soon.
Huawei and SMIC are steaming ahead on developing better chips as much as ever despite the sanctions.
USA is sorely mistaken if they think they still have the upper hand against China. USA is also losing soft power fast with old allies, and this has already resulted in ASML opening office in China again.
Probably because China has figured out the basics of how to make EUV themselves, so it’s only a matter of time before ASML becomes irrelevant in China, Unless they ignore American demands of sanctioning China completely, terms which demand ASML can’t even maintain already delivered equipment!

We are already seeing clear signs of Europe ignoring American demands, and USA losing their soft power. Because they are alienating allies.

And Trump weakening USA in that regard is emboldening China to fight back. Denying USA access to crucial rare earth minerals, That ultimately will result in American EV products to become inferior on both engines and batteries.

Denying China chips will slow them down intermittently, but it will accelerate their efforts to catch up on both production and design of their own chips, ultimately making China more independent.

It’s funny how China is always blamed for not buying American products, and when they do, USA is sanctioning them to try to slow them down. 😋

USA is teaching China that they can’t rely on others especially USA, they need complete technological independence, and they need to be able to deal with USA from a postion of strength. The way Trump is acting will sour the relations for decades.

It’s a weird world we are living in, I don’t understand how this works, but it’s cool. 👍

First it makes you trust it, then it turns on you.

Elon Musk is a narcissist, he is not going to pay any more taxes voluntarily ever, than he absolutely has to, because he can’t evade them.

If we knew it was altruistic, and only working for our benefit, it might be.
But as it is, it is not working for you, you are not its master.
Big corps and governments are.
