So China is investing more heavily in RISC-V, as a reaction to US
sanctions on exports of proprietary technology <https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/cpus/chinese-government-shifts-focus-from-x86-and-arm-cpus-promoting-the-adoption-of-risc-v-chips>.
But the idea that they can avoid sanctions by using open-source
technologies just seems to enrage some in the US even further:

The growing Chinese interest in RISC-V has sparked concerns in the
U.S. In 2023, some American lawmakers urged the Biden
administration to limit domestic companies from working on RISC-V
projects and extending the ISA, fearing China could use its
open-source nature to strengthen the capabilities and performance
of its processors. With technology at the center of U.S.-China
tensions, RISC-V's expansion in China could become another point
of conflict.

So what? The USA is going to try and claim ownership of (and impose
export controls on) open-source now?

That ship has sailed. If sanctions were applied like 30
years ago it could have slowed things down. But at this
point, China has a vibrant tech industry and can probably
develop much more quickly than the US due to the US war on
education.

How stupid can the US be ? All this will do is ensure China
will control the tech industry.

Sure they can try, but the political occurrences in the
last couple of weeks probably showed the world they can
soon start ignoring the US.

I live in California (thankfully), and I'm disgusted with the current administration, as well as their blitz on the U.S. Constitution.

This city used to be part of Mexico, so it would have been
"North Mexico" at the time. LDO's pejorative isn't far off the mark,
but he's late by over a century.

Not to far North of here is Ft. Ross, which was a Russian fort when they
had territory on this coast. So if one were paranoid enough about the
aims of the duplicitous Russians, one my fear they would try to reclaim
that territory.

I could ramble on. Suffice to say that if the Cheeto Benito isn't
a Russian asset, he hasn't done much to differentiate himself from
someone who is...and in any event, he is no fan of California.

California has demonstrated on multiple occasions that, like Joe Biden, it cannot manage its own affairs responsibly.
