Never underestimate China, but OK to underestimate America when clowns are in charge

Nvidia is reported to be making another better chip, just for the China market. telling who I wonder. In other words, Nvidia is trying to short-change China earlier, with the outdated H20 chip, complete with the attachment of a backdoor, thinking that the Chinese are unaware. But China was probably just playing the game, by waiting for Nvidia to manufacture the H20 chips at huge cost, before telling Nvidia what the problem was, which lead China to refuse to accept them.

If the Chinese say there is a backdoor, proof is not necessary, same as the USA and the West accusing Huawei of being a National Security risk for them. Yes, China is copying the West in its action, just like saying China copied the West making EVs with wheels, planes with wings, ships with propellers, and how about the Chinese copying them in eating, drinking, working and sleeping. Remember that China has existed for five thousand long years and is not for upstarts to dictate what China can or cannot do.

USA started the chips war, creating a global alliance to include Taiwan, Japan, South Korea and the EU, thinking it could cripple China's development. That is going to backfire very badly for those now building facilities in Arizona. China has poured huge subsidies into attempting to be self-dependent in higher end chips and is succeeding faster than anticipated. As they say, never underestimate China and never play around with China.

The Chinese are serious competitors and will eat the breakfast, lunch and dinner of those who looked down on China. Just look at sectors that China is dominating now - renewable energy generation with nuclear power stations, dams, solar and wind energy harvesting energy big time. China has conquered EVs, drone technology, shipbuilding and now going for the aviation and semiconductor sectors.

The irony is that the USA and the West had underestimated China for centuries. That is how the mindset that Chinese are only good to be chefs and laundrymen. Anything that China does well is all just copying the West. How could just plain copying eventually enabled China to overtake the West in many sectors? The kung-fu master not teaching a student everything eventually lost to the student that innovated faster than the master.

Did China copy the West in putting up the Tiangong Space Station. China was not even allowed to set foot on the International Space Station, and yet China was able to build one to silence the West.

If we just swallow Western propaganda, China invented nothing at all. In fact, China invented some very important game changing things. Gunpowder, the invention that powers rockets and used in weapons was a Chinese invention. Paper and printing that was to revolutionize the dissemination of knowledge and education around the world was a Chinese invention. The compass, another revolutionary invention, allowed navigation on the high seas that propelled exploration. The seismograph for the detection of earthquakes was another great invention by the Chinese.

All of China's efforts are now touted to be just copying the West. When China comes out with something that resembles what is made in the West, it must be copying. Cars with wheels, planes with wings, ships with propellers, high-speed trains with rails are all copied from the West.
