in the mid-late 2000s I used to eat a few times a week at an Uyghur restaurant whose walls were entirely covered with pics of Turkic guys with guns, massive flags, and posters about meetings/events for East Turkestan. they had a collection box to support the East Turkestan Independence Movement. roughly half the guys there went around in a kind of attire worn exclusively by hardcore religious sectarians in Turkey, the other half were random people working in the area. never saw a single woman there. great food and vibe.

to clarify, it didn’t look super weird like pics of isis guys or anything. more like this. tastefully historic. maybe a few color shots that looked like they were from the 80s or 90s.

here's another picture of Zhao Ziyang ...



... shaking hands with Milton Friedman, in 1988.

What was happening in 1988?




okay, so they tried liberalizing prices and implementing Shock Doctrine at the time, with Zhao's support, and poo poo got so bad that Deng ordered it rolled back

and then what happened?

We probably won't given that the current goal is to reach the intermediate stage of socialism in 2049. Will probably take decades from that point to reach communism.

Well this year they announced that theyve reached parity with Zen3

Huge gains, china is only a few years from catching up to top chip manufacturers

i don’t think the ability to catch up in chip design was in doubt, that’s why they had to kill hisilicon by banning huawei from tsmc fabs, and banning smic from getting asml equipment. the future of x86 isn’t necessarily going to be particularly important and hisilicon was perfectly competitive in arm based chip design. it’s the parts between the processed inputs (amat et al) and the litho machines (asml) where it’s hard to see a near-future catchup

Is chip production going well? I saw a bloomberg article last week which talked about how the industry was underwater because of corruption or something like that. Lol

smic is making what appears to be 7nm-class chips based on multi-patterning techniques at feature sizes close to what tsmc had before finally using euv. however they have no obvious ways of acquiring euv lithography or any future advances beyond that at the time. domestic technology at those steps in the chain are further behind than the fab and design steps. the financial situation is probably really corrupt and hosed up because of being a big strategic deal that the state wants to throw money at but i don’t know the details. however that is not likely to be the main issue going forward

ultimately they can survive having worse chips and having to take their time filling in the gaps from sanctions and export controls. there’s no magic involved that can’t be rediscovered the hard way and there’s no threat to life from slow smartphones. the researchers who use supercomputers may be a bit sad
