To be somewhat charitable to GP, if their climate for research and development leads to actually objectively better outcomes then yes I'd say it's fair to make the claims that a nation's work in any given sector are showing better returns given the circumstances and inputs in question. Now there are a lot of generally hard to observe facets to the inputs that went to these technological advances produced by China (publically), but you can't ignore their public and OSS contributions because it's inconvenient to a person's capitalist agenda.

I was referring to this Australian report https://www.aspi.org.au/report/aspis-two-decade-critical-tec...
57 out of 64 major tech areas are being led by the Chinese (and Chinese tech companies, as another HN user somehow can't seem to separate).
I don't care what economic or governmental system they use. But given what's being shown on XiaoHongShu, they're doing awesome. Or worse yet financial ideation and exploitation are eating through every fiber of the US.
Have I thought about emigrating? Absolutely. The USA is slowing down, and already behind. And current policies are going to put us solidly as a 3rd world nation.
I may not be able to move there in a reasonable time schedule, but I will definitely use FLOSS contributions from there, and work with people there and everywhere to grow FLOSStech.
