“It wasn’t long ago that it was reported that Chinese companies are buying up US chipmaking equipment to make advanced semiconductors of their own”.
So it’s just a matter of time, I guess, till China has their own Chips anyway.
Time is a very valuable resource
As far as I know China is pretty far behind on the chip making. That doesn’t mean we should just sit back and relax, but they’ve got a long way to go.
they’ve got a long way to go.
That’s what they said about chips for Huawei phones and Huawei has already caught up.

As I said I do not think that means we should relax. Which is what happened with Huawei.
But it’s not like Huawei needed 10 to 15 years to catch up to the then-current state of technology as everybody claimed. So no, not “a long way to go”.

What are we going to do to counter it, bomb their facilities? We were convenient but they don’t need us. We can’t stall their progress without starting a war.

Umm…most hardward IS made in china, they have more rare earth metals than any place in the milky way. More at 11
