[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are always so shocked to hear [b]we are not as ahead as we assume we are.[/b]

Go to Oslo, Hong Kong or Sydney, in comparison NYC and Chicago look like absolute dumps.

I have a colleague from Beijing, young guy, did undergrad at some college in China I've never heard of (doesn't mean anything as I'm not up on top chinese colleges), then moved here to complete 2 graduate degrees (advanced math and electrical engineering) from MIT in 3 years while raising young children without family help. His wife was also at MIT and works. Their 9 year old can do math my 14 year old can't do. [/quote]

[b]If they’re so far ahead, why does he need to move to the U.S. for a job?[/b]
AI can do a lot more math than majority of the population. so what[/quote]
There’re so many idiots like this one, which shows Americans have zero critical thinking abilities. How sad! Maybe it’s because the U.S. companies pay more for the same work and effort? Or maybe most Americans are so stupid that they don’t face much competition here relative to China?[/quote]
