Chinese machine tools are sloppy junk. They won't even buy them. They prefer German though. Jap hate keeps them from going there. The Germans are making fortunes manufacturing tools in S. Korea for China.
Chinese Cutters (end mills etc) are OK, but that industry is so automated they don't have a _huge_ advantage.
Trump realizes that the trade war has been on for _decades_, wants to start fighting back.
The two biggest up and coming economies (China and India) are both very protectionist. It's time for that to change.
China and India can't retaliate by imposing tariffs of their own, because those tariffs have been there forever. Apparently having low cost labor isn't enough for them, they also need local ownership rules, high import tariffs and currency pegs. All protectionist laws.
Define AI...short answer 'no'. Weak AI is just a classifier, modeled after nematodes and other very primitive life forms. We don't even know where to start for strong AI, no theories, perhaps a few untested hypotheses.
As a practical matter, you don't add runways. You switch to larger airplanes. SF and Oakland are carrying as many flights as they can, but still have a _ton_ of additional capacity available.

0-60 in 8 seconds. You said it yourself. Lame.
I predict that 2020 will be the year I do Jessica Alba and Natalie Portman at the same time.
Your on crack. New cars _are_ to impress the neighbors. Lose 40% of value in their first year.
Yeah, week power, plus diesel. So just generally sucks. But you can still flog the piss out of it, just your redline is about 400 RPM.
You can get just about any car down to under 25mpg, if you drive it right.
Keep up your RPM, never hesitate to downshift, basically flog the piss out of it.
Tesla has ludicrous speed. You just need to use your foot.

They already did, 20+ years ago. Revenue stream is long dead, they can only beat a dead horse.
What did I say? New cars are to _impress_the_neighbors_, not for transportation.
Especially when talking about $8500+/year worth of new car.
You have 10,000 pages of long winded fallacies, we have history. That makes you wrong.
Karl Marx wrote 'On the Jewish Question'/'On the Jewish Problem' (depending on the politics of the translator). Clearly a Nazi.

The trolls are the only good thing left on /.
Not the OP, the funny trolls. Read at -1
Appears to ban QoS...breaking the net.

He wants regs? OK...car computer software must be developed to FAA standards.
What? That puts him out of business? Too bad.
When his cars fail to autodrive next year, can we ignore him?
Go fuck yourself, bootlicker.
The punchline from a Dirty Johnny joke. His little brother's teacher's was named 'Prussy'...Johnny helped him remember the name.
Include the Soviets in the list. The started the war allied with the Nazis.

Stockton to Bakersfield.
Frezno is, more or less, Bakersfield. They share a smell.
People that spend $8500/year on a car are engaging in conspicuous consumption. That's not a transport cost, that's an impress your neighbors cost.
Vegas? So last century.
Casinos are everywhere, should be even more common, no reason for Indians to have exclusive rights.
Vagas is a shithole, just a bigger, even shittyier version of Reno.
CA should make gambling legal, everywhere. Close Vegas down. Keep the taxes in state.
You two should get a room.
Good point, hookers and blow it is.
Nobody bitches that the Netherlands is at sea level. Because the swamp Germans pay their own costs.
But we're not building people a brand new slum, right where the last one 'fell over and sank into the swamp'. Slums are the leftover housing.
