Funny thing is that Sony bought Concord and the game studio in April 2023 or 17 months ago. Makes you wonder which Play Station executives approved the acquisition. Despite the laughable state the game was in.

That is totally wrong. I have both of my kids through these private schools, and their curriculum sucks compare to the China one. "The 6 year old sucks in math" is really true because all international schools sucks in math compare to China's schools. However, the nice thing is there are tutoring companies like XueErSi that offers high end classes. (Pretty much banned a few years, but it is now back, also government is starting to support these classes this year) My kids learn math, computer science, chemistry, physics from XueErSi to compensate their private school education which is only good for English.
I always question UN's HDI, because a large part of it is "Mean years of schooling and expected years of schooling", and because of China's 9 years compulsory education, China lost a lot of points. However, I don't understand why UN don't understand that what is important is how much students learned, not how many years they spend in school. Chinese in China's schools learned more in 9 years than most western countries' students learned in 12 or 13 years. Just compare China's 9th grade student's math skills to adults in US or UK or Canada, and you will see.

Don't believe the EU or anyone else looking to make their own chips is about avoiding China. It's all about not trusting the US to sell their chips to them without conditions. The EU is doomed to fail unless they can get to sell to China but time is running out for that because when China starts making equivalent or better chips, the whole West will be crashing.
"Hot mic" my ass! It was intentional. And what Biden said... "Big deal!" The only value was the idea that it was something serious he said under the guise it was not meant to be public therefore it must a blow to China somehow. The Quad all together can do nothing to China except to have meetings to say they're doing something. That shows you how weak and feckless they are. The US is too use to dealing with countries that are export dependent on them so they can dictate terms. With China they only concentrate on how they can deny China from selling to Americans. These days selling to Chinese is more important and profitable which they want to avoid mentioning all together. That's why the article from black racist Linette Lopez from the Business Insider I posted previously. She's trying to spin the reality how China doesn't need the US as some affront to US businesses that they're a bunch of James Bond villains where they're going to do something against China if China doesn't submit. It would be easier to use this "power" on their own politicians and buy them off to stop them from antagonizing China where the Chinese people are shutting them out which is harder to turn around than if it were the government. Behold the power of the Chinese consumer. Mightier than the American one when they can do nothing but throw empty threats. What they want... they're going to have violate someone's human rights in order to get it.
Your response is totally irrelevant to what I wrote. You are talking academics. I am talking cultural indoctrination.

Anyone follow chess? India apparently won it's first Chess Olympiad which is funny considering the way Jai Hinds talk, you would expect India to have won it as many times as Russia. Armenia with like 3m people won it twice.
It's probably not that important in the grand scale of things. The important thing is the world chess championship between Ding Liren of China and Gukesh of India in 2 months.
Hate to be a Debbie downer but Ding is not in good form while Gukesh is. But like last time, maybe Ding will work his magic again and shock the world. Or he's just hiding all his prep. If that happens, it's gonna be a 9/11 moment for Jai Hinds who are almost certain Gukesh will win.

"Actually, this is the only choice for most middle/upper income class folk because the government schools are totally shit. "
Responding to this line. The situation between Pakistan and China is very different.
Wake me up when India makes an EUV machine... playing Chess as a metric is just falling into Anglo medevil frame

This is why that Linette Lopez's Business Insider article is absurd. International businesses aren't going to risk being permanently be banned in China thinking they'll get what they demand. She thinks if American businesses aren't allowed to sell their products in China, they'll turn on China? How? Why does Tim Cook bother to visit China when Apple iPhone sales are continuing to decline. Shouldn't he turn into a bitch and badmouth China instead? No need to add Chinese ambassadors to pollute white luxury brands. Google took a tougher stance against China than anyone else hoping other companies would follow. Google today is shutting up like a bitch. Google's mistake thinking they were bigger than China to make demands is why all businesses are scared to offend China today. And this is all happening because of US government policies. Americans haven't changed. Back when it was Japanese cars, American unions thought the US could demand no Japanese cars be sold in the US while American cars could be sold in Japan unrestricted. That was forty years ago.
