Why is the west so content with being left in the dust by Asia?
Maybe when the Chinese complete their invasion of Sydney it will get some decent developments
Lucas Gonzalez
Looks great.

Is the "internet" even the internet, or is it some Great Firewall Presents: The "Internet," Sponsored by Baidu kind of thing?

Sydney doesn't have an extremely harsh climate, it's very coastal and quite wet during winter. Your thinking more of NT, WA and SA
Adam Roberts
Ten years ago stuff like that was talked about here as well. But then everyone changed their minds and decided to turn Europe into an Afro-Islamic shithole with dirty cities. Well, at least we aren't called racists anymore.
Jayden Scott
the Chinese are not capable of making something of that scale work
Nathan Rodriguez
I think they are. China is a dictatorship.

they've been running those projects for a while now and i'm suprised that there aren't any news-worthy achievements, they know the west won't compete with them
Samuel Powell
>Ignores the fact that 45% of the country is rural. >Ignores the fact that over 50% of the country has no Internet access.
China can build as much as it can because it ignores anything remotely related to our urban planning, which ranges from environmental impact assessments to simply figuring out what the best option may be under a given circumstance.
In Shanghai, they built the world's fastest commercial MagLev rail line, leading from the main international airport to... a station that is right outside the downtown core. The station is already served by a conventional subway system which takes longer to cover the same distance, but has much greater availability and may well actually connect you to your final destination.
Point is, China has money to throw around, but it's not necessarily being put to good use.
Josiah Russell
And nobody will live there, just like in the countless skyscraper ghost towns you see all over China.
Gavin Powell
>>Building Fiber Optic to the home telecommunications everywhere.
Is this impressive to you?
Samuel Cooper
That's very nice and all but will there actually be anyone living in that city or is gonna be another one of those ghost cities?
If so, count me fucking in. Living in a desolate city, devoid of life with a top notch internet connection sounds dope as fuck.
Gavin Martin
yea no lie it would be cool to even visit
feel like you have a city to yourself
Robert Cooper
It really pisses me off that here in Australia everything has to be means tested to such levels that it just never, ever goes ahead.
I mean, one day we will have to build the East Coast HSR, but each year they wait, it just gets more and more and more expensive.
Because we are democracies, it means everyone has to agree on everything and even if something does go ahead, generally you get a change in government half way through and they pussy out changing the entire thing and creating the worst of both worlds.
Good example is the Sydney Opera House, when the government switched, the new government basically pulled funding so the interior of the Sydney Opera House has worse acoustics than a school hall. It's legitimately considered one of the worst live music venues on earth. Why even spend the money to begin with if you are just going to pussy out and destroy the entire thing half way through?
Zachary Jones
It's gut-wrenchingly ironic considering the Chinese use mostly German corporations to research and develop this tech for them.
William Edwards
>implying we don't have that already
William James
Anglos always refer to the west when they talk about negative traits, like feminism or other backwardedness, when they really refer to themselves.
But in your country almost everyone lives in a big house in the suburbs, not in a 30-floor commieblock.
Landon Jackson
>dictatorship >efficient government Strange, we seemed to have none of that during 40 years of gommunism.
Jayden Miller
China has far too big of a population to ever be run efficiently anyway. India is a democracy and suffers the same handicap.
Hunter Moore
I'm pretty sure thats just because Chinese and Indians live in that country.
Chase Green
Actually, most CCP officials are empty suit bureaucrats who got their job through bribery/connections. China in fact invented bureaucracy 2000 years ago. The amount of corruption in that country is fairly awesome.
Chase Thomas
USSR and it's satellites were run by moronic luddites who literally banned computers to be used in planning because "Duuur cybernetics is a capitalist psuedoscience".
Fun fact, the USSR actually had a working internet by the 1960s, the government heads had it scrapped.
Really good book on the subject is called "Red Plenty" and it's basically how the USSR consistently self-sabotaged because it was run entirely through nepotism and everyone at the top was an incompetent retard to insane levels.
The book though does give the view the system COULD have worked, if they actually had competent people who gave a fuck at the top. There are a few stories in the book of incredibly intelligent and well meaning people who actually could have changed things for the better, chewed up and spat out by the system.
Jack Rivera
I hope they make the eco cities quickly we've been attacked by their poisonous gas too much
Isaiah Bell
Sounds like more real estate scams. They will try to fill up the apartments with buyers with the promise of finishing the infrastructure. Within a few years, the buildings will stop being maintained and it will look like another piece of shit Chinese city.
Easton Scott
>China >Led by delusional commies that only manage to survive thanks to western spoonfeeding with the intention to turn 99.9999999999% of the country into serfs
FTFY

Because the USSR was only created to get the goyim kicked back into line to properly serve the jews. Progress and prosperity were something that needed to be prevented.
John Reyes
Its gonna look great for a month and eventually start falling apart and look like a shithole.

Brandon Ortiz
>My country can't even build a fucking internet network without reverting to fucking copper and spending 100 billion dollars on technology that was outdated in the 90s
Everyone uses Fiber nowadays, what happen is some (most) providers just split their fibers and use a media converter to handle a coaxial cable to your house. The equipment is much cheaper, and you still got a decent throughput. (seriously, who needs 100Mb connection in 2017?)
No, i am not making this shit up, I am a network admin, and some of my closest friend work in medium size providers...
Christian Ward
I don't know m8. China did some engineers projects that make yours look like shit. Even trump comment on this. And when your government start to research something, is a complete scam, like "solar roads".
Joseph Murphy
The Chinese firewall was circumventable by a simple "hidemyass" online VPN when I was there in 2009.
Nathan Butler
As far as I know, these ghots cities are being slowly filled with people now, They built luxury housing in advance because they knew living standards will increase.
Chase Wood
Yes, their firewall only works in layer 3. Which means he only filter addresses. A layer 7 firewall would be to expensive to serve the entire country.
Evan Carter
>Living in a desolate city, devoid of life with a top notch internet connection sounds dope as fuck. Too fucking right.
Luis Brooks
We already have infrastructure and there's no need to build new cities from scratch. That's the reason why some European countries (or Ausfailia for that matter) have shitty internet connections while Romania has magnificent ones.
Liam Powell
Literally because of socialism
Joseph Gutierrez
sounds like those ghost cities they built to scam money off the government/retards.
Kevin Brown
I for one welcome our chinese overlords fuck drumpf and FUCK white people
Matthew Morales

Eli Howard
Not true. Internet "speed" (god, i hate use this word) is increased by offer. Probably they have a few large ISP that offer only a basic set of commercial packets. Again, Fiber cable is cheap, cheaper than an average coaxial cable, but the manpower to install it is extremely expensive in first world countries. Here in Brazil, we can hire people do dig 2 meters under the soil and make a 100km, for the price that in Australia would only pay for a few meters of cable (even the cable being cheaper there). I am not being pro libertarian, but i need to bring this point.
Joseph Sanchez

Michael Barnes

Eugenics can't fix that.
Henry Robinson
Actually, you can. But i don't bloody think they have the tech to analyze a shitload of dna to chose the right fecundated egg to inseminate a woman. But, if they do, they could look for characteristics like size, strength, fails in DNA, congenital diseases, etc.
Chase Murphy
The DNA is still coming from 2 chinks though. You can increase the likelihood they will get upper values of genetic variables but you can't perform miracles.
Maybe they'll create 5'8 manlets.
Gabriel Cooper
I like the overall sentiment of your post but I'm gonna have to downboat you for using numbers instead of layer names. We both know that there aren't actually three layers between the network layer and application layer.
Andrew Hall
I am really not into genetics. But recessive traits are a thing in all humans. Imagine something like 200000 eggs (a woman may have 400000 after reach puberty) and you chose the right one, or the fews that you want... The odds are in favor of the science for the big number.

Here in Brazil (due the shitload of bad translations) we often use the OSI layer number instead of the name. Even CIsco do things poorly translated.
Cooper Green
The only reason to start a communist revolution, is to get to the power. Once you are there, there is literally no reason why do this. You could simple be more authoritarian...
Ayden White
>no newsworthy achievments Or they do some utterly inhumane shit in their basements and simply dont tell anyone.
Levi Wood
I don't know if the average American poster, literally don't read at all, or they are pretending. Almost everyone around here in south Brazil knows about they super crops and they huge investments in solar power. Not to talk about their investments in Africa, wich are a frequent topic in shittalk in bars.
But i think the BRICS thing really helps a lot to bring light over the other side of world.

China can barely build an elevator with out it taking out at least 6 lives a year. How are they gonna build this super utopia?
Isaac Gomez
Actually almost every Chinese bureacrat is talented and at least nominall qualified.
The politicians in the party congress are just as corrupt, but they are also stupid.
digging up old copper landlines, clearing roads and hooking it up to houses is fucktones more expensive than laying it down while paving roads.
we barely have enough dosh to maintain our current infrastructure, but ripping it up and replacing it would be a logistical nightmare.
not to forget everybody bitches and moans when it gets noisy outside, ie subway tunnels in toronto have been stalled and limited to 3 hours of work a day because neighborhoods bitch about it.
Christopher Ortiz

Andrew Sanders
I worked in this field and it involves gene editing.
they aren't at all creating "superhumans" because there's probably hundreds/thousands of genes for every trait. its way too complex to do, especially given that chinese biological research is much shittier than the US.
at most its currently used to wipe out single genes that cause disease, ie a gene that you inherit from you parents that can cause blindness, etc.
>a few videos of failures in a nation of 1.4 billion is indicative of the norm >muh bad quality meme
google.es/amp/mobile.reuters.com/article/amp/idUSKCN0XJ097 >The success belies widespread predictions rising costs for Chinese labor and a currency that has increased nearly 20 percent against the dollar in the last decade would cause China to lose market share to cheaper competitors.
>Instead, China's manufacturing infrastructure built during the country's industrial rise of recent decades is keeping exports humming and providing the basis for firms to produce higher-value products.
>"China cannot be replaced," said Fredrik Guitman, formerly China general manager for a Danish maker of silver products, adding that reliable delivery times were more important than price. "If they say 45 days, it will be 45 days."

China is literally a polluted wasteland where drinking the water and breathing the air will give you 10 types of ass cancer

Slanty-eyed people should stop spreading their technological cancer

Then again, DNA carries a extreme amount of backlog of genes. And genes doesn't have "stacking" in the same places either. There is a reason why Ligers are fuckhuge >The liger is a hybrid cross between a male lion (Panthera leo) and a female tiger (Panthera tigris)
That said, being tall is worth less than good proportions and good enduring traits.
Joseph Reyes
Except china is littered with crumbling buildings and dodgy construction.
This won't happen, or if it does it'll be done 25% and badly made, with no one living there. Just like most things of this nature in China. They are investor memes, to garner money and create content to be pretentious from.
