    I keep seeing people discount Chinese achievement because they ‘steal’ the tech. I don’t think my country could pull this off even after stealing all the tech. It’s quite an achievement. I hope this’ll show people what’s coming. China isn’t rising anymore. They’re rolling out of bed. The next century belongs to them

          Lol. Visual impaired typing on a phone. I feel no shame in the odd typo.

          But yep germany has a very long history of scilled engineering. Before and after Nazi control.

      Predicting the next century seems a bit much. But I’m glad they are experiencing success, I hope we all benefit from their discoveries.
