Yeah exactly. Everytime I say that, economic sanction -might be from one country to another or one company to another- is only a temporary punishment. Sooner or later the company or country will go on without the technology or product needed. I mean everytime a solution will be found. A similar...

Well some portion of what you say is true. If you think a smart phone as puzzle that is assembled, companies that buys each piece of puzzle has less strategic significance than the ones that they somehow designs or produces it's own puzzle pieces. However sometimes companies use hardware from...

What Andrew Ng working for Baidu? This guy's video lectures was the thing that made me love pattern recognition and was very informative. This guy is one of the most brilliant academicians on the field. Clearly he will give a lot of value to Baidu.

Favoring and encouraging local products are extremely important for the current transition of the Chinese economy. However heavy protection of local companies might cripple the competition which would downgrade the quality. While favoring the local products, Chinese policy makers should also...

Yeah exactly. What I was trying to say is, having nuclear warheads does not automatically puts you in MAD status with all nuclear nations. You should have strategic forces to deliver the warheads to desired targets. If you can't and your opponent has that you're definitely not in a MAD status...

There is a slight update needed on that information. In relations between China and US there were no MAD status back in 95. Meaning a nuclear warfare would result in assured destruction of China. Even today it's questionable weather or not China-US relations is in a MAD status. The whole...

Russia has minimal economic problems. There is no shortage in terms of commodities and products in Russia today. And it's highly unlikely. I mean despite the economic sanctions, Russia will be able to find products and commodities that it needs from other countries. They will definitely not be...

Sorry, my bet. I'm not gonna vouch for the gangster one :)

Well the question should be considered as follows : Does China wants to end US presence in Asia? If our answer is a solid yes, then we can discuss weather or not, China will be successful in this quest. From a utilitarian perspective, first we should consider that is the US status quo in Asia...

Bose is an extremely talented physicist who collaborated with Einstein. If it was up to me I'd give comparable credit and publicity to Bose with Einstein. However sad thing is many people does not recognize Bose.Those times were the strange times. Heisenberg was the head of German nuclear...

Fast-Neutron Reactors are definitely a step forward in terms of radioactive toxic waste. However there are two drawbacks. First one is the construction and operating costs are much higher than traditionally used Thermal Reactors. I believe this is the issue that Chinese are expert, so if it used...

Our current renewable energy technologies are just a transition phase. The ultimate solution for the world's energy problems will definitely be the fusion reactors. As I've stated many times before, this is the most important part of the China's development. Asian nations wants to develop with...

Very nice reasoning. I definitely agree. Altough I always thought the foreign policy had influence on news coverages in US. However you might have a better grasp than I do, since you're more exposed to US media than me.

We are talking about something that is absolutely subjective here. I can bring some piece of news from 70's and 80's that praises China and you can bring some piece of news from the same era that opposes China. However for 70's and 80's era that is absolutely clear that a good portion of Western...

Meanwhile Jews in Turkey are protesting anti-semitism and returning to Israel. I wish being a democrat was as easy as celebrating an important day of minorities for one day, and disrespecting them the rest of the 364 days. But guess what? No one's buying this.

I'm sorry but with what example particularly did you disprove my logic? Because if I was able to understand your counter thesis (I mean if you logic made sense) I would be more than happily reply you to support my argument. If I might need to educate you, Henry Kissinger's foreign policy during...

Recently Chinese stock markets are extremely bullish. You will most probably see a great deal of increase in the wealth -possibly will put China to No. 2 spot- in 2015 rankings. I've asked about the logic of this national wealth calculation to @LeveragedBuyout before. He explained in details...

I guess China will push for unification if South gets out of the US influence. To put in concrete terms, Offering South to shut down all US bases and in return hand over North Korea to South would be a logical action. That would be a nice win-win type of deal. Of course out of context...

Lol. That actually proves west sees China as an adversary and sees Taiwan as some entity that they can influence.

Almost late.. Almost.. It has a very little chance of success. Let's see what they can do. Whatever you do please first try it in China. Because if it fails, let it fail in China. If you fail internationally effects will be much worse.
