But muh EUV is the most complex thing humans have ever created and is akin to black magic

But muh EUV requires R&D and supply chains from 50 different nations

But muh China would need at least 20-30 years to develop a working prototype

But muhhhhhhh

You are wrong. That would be Stepmom Pron and China will not be able to reverse engineer it in a thousand years.

I have not watched the whole debate on Aljazeera English regarding the recently discharged Nuclear waste water by the incompetent and criminal Japanese government. But the rep from China challenged the hapless Japanese dude and invited that servile Norwegian lady to transport the Japanese nuclear waste water into their ocean and see if the people of Norway would be so kind and understanding. That shut her up.

At George Mason, fewer students are getting into calculus — the first college-level course for some majors — and more are failing. Students who fall behind often disengage, disappearing from class.

“This is a huge issue,” said Maria Emelianenko, chair of George Mason’s math department. “We’re talking about college-level pre-calculus and calculus classes, and students cannot even add one-half and one-third.”

For Jessica Babcock, a Temple University math professor, the magnitude of the problem hit home last year as she graded quizzes in her intermediate algebra class, the lowest option for STEM majors. The quiz, a softball at the start of the fall semester, asked students to subtract eight from negative six.

“I graded a whole bunch of papers in a row. No two papers had the same answer, and none of them were correct,” she said. “It was a striking moment of, like, wow — this is significant and deep.”

Before the pandemic, about 800 students per semester were placed into that class, the equivalent of ninth grade math. By 2021, it swelled to nearly 1,400.

“It’s not just that they’re unprepared, they’re almost damaged,” said Brian Rider, Temple’s math chair. “I hate to use that term, but they’re so behind.”
