Comment on Can China build its own ASML?

Comments

These arguments always remind me of 1960s-1970s era spy movies, where Bad Guy has the secret design for SuperNewBig computer chip, which will tip the balance of power inevitably in his favor.

Meh. For a year or so, his computers will work a little faster. Unless they power an armageddon-device, it's just a short head-start in a long race.

Can China build its own ASML? NEVER! Western brains and economic greatness cannot be equalled!

Yes, China will catch up. It won't give them anything but a short lead.
