    Love how they have a bunch of suggestions that don’t include “de-escalate the trade war.”

    From 2005 to 2015 alone, China’s production of low-purity gallium exploded from 22 metric tons to 444 metric tons.

    It is always staggering to think how much China has developed technologically within just the last 20 years. I’m not even old but still remember when “Chinese” tech was popularly synonymous with “bootleg.” Now it’s all so good that the USA has to ban it while they play catch-up. They got beat at their own game.

      Yeah, the progress in China is absolutely stunning and it looks to be accelerating too. Next decade will be incredible to watch.

            Lots of people in the west still think that China is just stealing their tech and can’t produce anything original of their own. The fact that most westerners are afraid to even visit China makes the work of western propagandists pretty easy. They can just make up stuff and rely on latent racism to do the rest of the work.
