    You can find plenty of commentators saying anything in the modern world. That is not evidence of credibility, unless you’re in a church or something.

    I would challenge anyone to said that to explain how exactly stopping trade would prevent Chinese companies from improving their chips. Is it assumed they are incapable of improvement?

      I agree, but the US government thinks otherwise, and apparently the Commerce Department is now opening an investigation into how the Chinese could possibly have made a 7 nm chip. Though it’s not clear what else they can do; they’ve already completely blacklisted Huawei by this point, yet somehow it still lives.

        Don’t believe everything you hear. I can think of no compelling arguments for why the Chinese cannot do research that remains 10 years behind the Taiwanese.

        If everyone within a church is saying something is true, you will have a very hard time convincing them otherwise, their perceived credibility is too high. In other environments, you could attempt to find some kind of proof or evidence. Without faith to get in the way, proof can sometimes change people’s minds when they are wrong.
