This says nothing to contradict my contention: Our Operational, classified networks are safe. Commercial networks are at risk. The real talent is in the US. The Chinese military networks are not safe.
Yep Nixon and Kissinger TWO Losers ( And Hypocrite Pat Buchanan was right there with them )
I’ll never understand why Reagan didn’t end the open door to China crap
A lot can happen between now and then. Who knows what great inventions may replace what we depend on now. Current technology will change rapidly in the coming decades. The things they want to control may be obsolete by 2050. I’d like to be here for it, but my time will end well before 2050.
“push by Beijing to achieve “electronic dominance” over each of its global rivals by 2050,”
That’s only 43 years. Yes they may have a better operating system of their own design, than our US developed Windows XP by then.
I am an analog warrior adrift in a digital world. I know how to stop, disable, and destroy real world equipment, but I am not very effective against snot nosed nerds.
It appears my skills are now obsolete, I hope our universities are churning out didgital warriors to meet this new threat.
The next clinton can approve them to have our best. We don’t want them to lag behind.
i think you can get most of the guys your describing by giving them a date with a real girl
“I can’t believe that China’s hackers are better than the weirdo geek, Dead Cow Cult, pizza-munching, Pepsi-swilling, coke-coke-bottle-lensed American versions of same.”
Oh but they are, just ask The Times or any other of the numerous UK papers who express such credulity in reporting these stories. They is gonna stop are battle carriers with the computer CPUs!
China can do ANYTHING. America can’t do ANYTHING.
Just blow up their computers.
Can you shoot? That'll be the skill needed after our satellites, carrier battle groups and gee whiz intranets have been destroyed, and the Chicoms are pouring in over the Rio Grande and the Kommiefornia coast.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
Step one : Remove all Windoze systems from the internet.
Yes, they are. Unfortunately, they are mostly Chinese.
just a fun fact for all
chicoms crank out 700k per year worth of engineers we do about 150 and id venture that a huge # is foreign born so they go home at least some
also most of their elected officials (yuh) have engineering or technical background
they are not run by attorneys, psychologists and other fake professionals
Yes agree, after all they steal from us!..we need to recruit even younger however. I look at some of the top execs in the technology industry and they are 45-70. However, start ups by the younger geeks will be strong competition if not recognized for their talents, as they are not saddled with protocol.
Hmmm ...maybe that is a good thing. Growth becomes restrictive and stifles.
Little off topic, but you reminded me of a game show the other day where the bios of the contestants were announced by the host. One young lady was majoring in ..as she termed: “Irish”. The host said “Irish”? Yes, she explained, had always loved the Irish so made that her major, history related.
Subject: Education
Ye Gads! You don’t wanna do that!
Give them a date with a real girl and they might become normal and give up hacking!
Are you nuts!!!
good point
I’ve always wondered why the CIA or FBI couldn’t just recruit high school hackers to boost the nation’s security. But you have to have a Bachelor’s Degree to get in there. Seriously, these kids sitting around playing Xbox and creating web pages and social networking systems from scratch will run rings around most IT professionals who learned in the classroom.
How do you mean? Do you mean, outhustled in competition for open places? Or frog-marched out by biased professors or administrators? Or something else?
