mircea_popescu: china's parents woudn't approve, and moreover china doesn't want to be either stupid or in possesison of a car wreckage.
mircea_popescu: even if the us imagines that now that china has the better car it should drive it the same way it drove its own, right into a wall.
mircea_popescu: and china is liable to continue on the course that brought it success, humbly begging for what it wants, rather than suddenly swich to the course that sunk the us.
mats_cd03: you perceive the flow isn't imperceptibly happening in the other direction, too
bounce: at the same time they have a serious plaggiarism problem (they copied "publish or perish" too, bwahahaha) so long term they're risking stagnation
mircea_popescu: quite far from a theory, this.
mats_cd03: an interesting theory
mircea_popescu: if you pour from a to b but never from b to a, you can bet your ears b's gonna be fuller.
mircea_popescu: whereas china has not nor will ever do the same.
mircea_popescu: no, i mean the us has transferred all its technology there in exchange for cheap labour but under condition it shares the tech
bounce: if by "lead" meaning "has a copy of the plans and can cherry-pick the ones that work", yes
mircea_popescu: it doesn't cost THEM fifty trillion to try and fail to build a new airplane.
mircea_popescu: bounce china is sitting prettier than everyone for the very simple reason that it has the absolute lead in all technology.
bounce: I think china's sitting prettier than we are.
chetty: lmao, not so hidded, unless you tend to believe usg published numbers
bounce: also, we are running headlong into the aging workforce problem now; china has a while to fix it and by that time can steal all those smart carebots the japanese are building
bounce: on another note, we've had quite a lot of skillfully-hidden-in-the-numbers inflation that's well above the official growth rates. thus depleting both savings and hiding an effective economic decline
chetty: well the age spread of the population may cause some issues, even if you ignore economic growth
mircea_popescu: and certainly the chinese have "problems" they never heard of. similarly to how putin "doesn't understand how reality works".
mircea_popescu: so you know, arab women are unhappy because they don't live in the downtown on foodstamps, which has to be better than what they got because what else is the speaker doing there ?!
mircea_popescu: bounce you will have to appreciate idiot western peoples, even without any help from the propaganda machine, automatically interpret phenomena in a certain key.
bounce: meh. I thought that china /wanted/ a smaller population which naturally includes a smaller workforce. so how that's now a problem eludes me. unless "economic growth" is part of your religion, perhaps.
chetty: wow, there might actually be something new under the sun
chetty: dont think the issue of lots of extra menn has come up before, might twist traditions a bit
mircea_popescu: china is traditionally a sort of dog vomit (the fungus). it doesn't really war.
mircea_popescu: you're using some sort of prior here im not privy to. say wut ?
mats_cd03: i guess there are going to be a lot of gay chinese men in that generation
mats_cd03: all those young men though.
mircea_popescu: where they don't need to invade places to win.
mircea_popescu: doubt they really need to. besides, they're playing this game of humiliating the us,
mats_cd03: an aggressive china would be interesting to see...what would they take first?
mats_cd03: whatever happens, the party has the wealth and patience to wait them out...just like with taiwan

mircea_popescu: "Programmers have indeed created a universe where "science doesn't work." Learning where the permanent bugs and workarounds are inside a phonebook-length API teaches you nothing.
