A quote - "After all, it's one thing to lose your job to a 28-year-old willing to work for $4 per hour; it's quite another to think about your children or grandchildren being nuked. The former is bad enough; the latter is thinking the unthinkable. And it's all about China."
But he's no bigot. David lives in China and knows IT (he is a former Meta analyst) . If we keep the politicians at bay, he and I and you and other folks in the global technology community can leverage the promise in Lennon's "Imagine there's no countries..." China has a huge role to play in the tech world with its manufacturing and its highly driven labor base.
