China Now Has World's Fastest Supercomputer: And the GOP Helped

[CrusaderFrank]

The Republican Congress should pass the Rdean Act and ban the export of video games to China. It's the only way to keep them from getting our most sophisticated weapons

Gawd you're dumb.

We don't need to ban the export of video games to China. Why? Because the video games are MADE in China, fool. Just like the worlds fastest computer.

The world's "slowest" Frank, unfortunately, resides here in this country. A fact we are all too aware of and terribly ashamed of.

Once they get the computer chips, its so easy to go from this

to this

OMG

Obama and the Democrats passed tax cuts for companies and gave them subsidies so they could move jobs to China? Intel started building their factory in 2005 the year Obama became president?

Oh wait.

Obama wasn't president in 2005.

In fact, Republicans held both houses in 2005 and Bush was president.

Whew. Glad we got that cleared up. For a second I was nervous.

intel has had test and sort facilities in china for over 20 years . In Malaysia too....Oh and India too........Oh and Israel too......

"sorting" is way different than "making"

no shit Sherlock, and your point? maybe they could have bought the chips from TSMC since you NOW know they were not made there....go ahead keep digging....


now go, go look up what TMSC is....

Being right doesn't make one pathetic. In case you didn't know.

the day you are right, will be a record breaker
since it would be the first

The reason I post so many links is to prove I'm right.

The reason you post zero links is because you are wrong. If you were right, you would have links, but you don't.

the difference is the links you post, never actually support the position you claim

i dont need links to know you are a fucking idiot, your posts prove it

In another sign that China is moving up the food chain in manufacturing, Intel said today it has opened its first-ever chip manufacturing plant in Dalian, China.

The $2.5 billion factory, which is the size of bout 23 football fields, will be the first to fabricate microprocessors from raw silicon. Intel has relatively low-tech assembly factories in China (in Chengdu), where automated machines assemble chips into packages and test the final product, but this new factory, known as a wafer fabrication facility, or fab, will make the actual chips. Announced in 2007, the factory is now fully operational.

But after negotiating with the Chinese government and also getting U.S. government approval to produce sophisticated equipment here, Intel said it was simply time to move production of its 300-millimeter wafers to China.

Of course, Intel's facility, which is scheduled to open in 2010

Wow, you guys must feel good when you school me. I guess I really learned something.

Tell me, what did YOU learn?

OMG!

Obama is shipping jobs to China! Whatever are we going to do? Doesn't he realize that China is, gasp, Communist?

Maybe you should look at the dates on stories before you post so that you do not end up ruining your Blame Bush and the Republicans line.

2005? The story is from 2010, not 2005.

Because they started building the plant in 2005. It only started running in 2010. Takes years to build this kind of plant.

In addition, TSMC plans to boost monthly capacity at its Songjiang 8-inch fab in Shanghai, China, to 110,000 wafers from the current 49,000 units, Chang revealed. A portion of processes at the facility will also be upgraded to 0.13-micron to enhance its special technology options including automotive and embedded flash, Chang added.

TSMC expects moderate chip market growth in 2011, says CEO

US-based chip maker Intel on Friday opened a billion-dollar plant in Vietnam, the company's biggest in the world, expected to create thousands of skilled jobs as the nation moves from low to hi-tech.

Intel president and chief executive Paul Otellini and Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai officially opened the assembly and test facility, the size of five-and-a-half football fields, at an industrial park in Ho Chi Minh City.

Hai said the opening "supports our goal of accelerating economic transformation led by technology-intensive industries".

Intel said in a statement: "Production commenced in the middle of this year, starting with production of chipsets for laptops and mobile devices for Intel customers worldwide.

"Once fully operational, the facility is expected to create several thousand skilled jobs in high-tech manufacturing and generate significant export revenue for the country."

The facility is one of seven operated by Intel worldwide and reflects the transformation in ties between one-time enemies Vietnam and the United States as the communist country has opened up its economy over the last two decades.

Intel announced the project four years ago, proclaiming it the largest investment in Vietnam by an American company.

Even with all the evidence PROVING that supercomputers are being made with the SAME chips used in games, you still make yourself look more and more stupid. Good. Keep going. I like it.

In 2007, California-based Intel broke ground on a $2.5 billion microprocessor factory in Dalian, one of China's 53 high-tech development zones. The company's first in Asia, the fab, as fabrication plants are known, is scheduled to open late next year.

It "broke ground" three years ago. Planning for a 2.5 billion dollar factory takes years.

You got something to back that date up? Or did you just pull it out of thin air, it certainly wasn't in the story you linked to.

And yet, China still has the fastest computer in the world and it's made from game chips and millions of jobs moved to China from 2001 to 2008. And companies were able to do that because they received tax breaks and subsidies. Whatever else anyone says. We know those to be true.

so, no jobs went to China since 2008?

That is usually how my planning works out.

All fooling aside, the US really needs to get its educational system on track. Everywhere else is busy training engineers and the like, and our schools seem be dedicated to self realization and basket weaving.

Of course, they send their kids here to learn engineering. The community college I go to is full of kids from all over, learning english and C++. My SQL class has folks from Germany, India, Korea, Vietnam. The computer classes are really diverse. The visual Basic class is 20% Vietnamese. You go to the computer lab and it is full of Indonesian girls in the weird muslim scarves working on their Javascript homework.

So we should worry about the rest of the world eating our lunch if we are not careful. But the answer is more freedom, not less. More opportunity, not less. The fact that China has moved from autarky to a comparatively (to what went before) freer society means that all those brains that were locked up on collective farms and Socialist Hero Projects are now free to do some thinking on their own. And that means that we will be seeing the Chinese do more of these wonders. Mostly with American trained staff using American equipment and American components. But as time goes forward, and they have more opportunity, and we close off opportunity, we will have more to worry about.

How many right wingers on this board call education just a "piece of paper"? Then you have the right delegitimizing science with "magical creation" and "irreducible complexity" and wanting to stop any kind of funding of education and call advanced education a left wing conspiracy. Then they make up only 6% of scientists.

It's the right wing that has put education into the toilet. They support nothing except cheap labor for corporations and removing regulations so this country can be raped for it's natural resources.

No one can name a right wing contribution for at least a decade. Something good I mean. When you have the single largest group in America tearing down education, it will never succeed.
