Having finally visited China, having read and listened to Chinese techies, and having observed their actual systems this past year; I'm completely convinced that there's no stopping China in tech. They'll win at every single vertical, even at superconductors and English LLMs. You don't understand - they are efficiently integrated at every level, software, hardware, logistics, sales - EVERYTHING. If the world decides that robots that can feed your hamster are super important, China can ship a million robots that does this task the best in 2-3 months. It's insane how easily they can adapt thanks to the integrations. I say this as a tech worker in the West: The only tool left in West's toolbox is protectionism and war. Or we need to overhaul our systems to stop corporate & financial greed and refocus on value production. Invisible hand can't compete with intelligent planning.

In a few generations what will China be like as the consequences of their authoritarian one child policy continue? 2022 saw their first population decline, and they have too many old people, not enough working age people. Good luck finding a wife if you are a young Chinese man. For every benefit you get from central planning there are more trade offs such as the Government having the ability to force people to not have children, or to force the Uyghurs to be "reeducated". Yes, you might have a highly efficient tech industry among other advantages but are the benefits worth the cost?

Yup. We need a big overhaul no matter what. I hear China's major problem will be demographics.

half serious q: should I make my next website using https://modernjs.dev/en/? I tried before, but ran into a mild block and chose Remix instead. It seems the power of central planning depends on very low-level engineering decisions and tradeoffs, that bleed up into subtle dependencies later

that‘s why they call it the ‘invisible’ hand, because the hand is not actually there - it’s an imaginary ;)
