China has started mass producing immersion DUV lithography machines, these machines are capable of making semiconductors down to the 5nm node, after multi-patterning.

With this machine mastered, China can make everything under the sun with the exception of the EUV lithography machine, but that is coming soon, sooner than most people would expect.

All the subsystems for EUV lithography machines are done, a working prototype is running since late 2025.

Total industrial and supply chain independence is almost here. After this, we won't need to worry about any forms of sanctions or embargos.

متن ابن عاشر (المرشد المعين) نظمٌ مختصر يجمع العقيدة الأشعرية، الفقه المالكي، والتصوف الجنيدي في أبيات سهلة الحفظ، اعتمده الجزائريون لتلقين الأطفال أصول دينهم بيسر ووضوح منذ الصغر.

Matn Ibn Ashir (al-Murshid al-Mu'in) is a concise didactic poem composed by the 17th-century scholar Ibn Ashir, systematically covering three pillars:
Ash'ari creed (aqida),
Maliki jurisprudence (fiqh),
and Junaydi Sufi spirituality (tasawwuf) — the traditional intellectual foundation of Algerian Sunni Islam.

Algerians memorized it as children because its rhymed verse form makes doctrine and law easy to retain through recitation, giving young students a compact, structured foundation in correct belief and practice before they're old enough for deeper theological study — a centuries-old Algerian pedagogical method for transmitting orthodox Sunni Maliki-Ash'ari religious identity generation to generation.

Two questions about the Tiznit highway:

1) Can Pres. Trump find Morocco on a map?

2) Does King Mohamed VI (جل جلاله) know that Morocco is naming the highway after Trump?

Nas inscrições sul-arábicas (em escrita musnad, do reino de Sabá e reinos vizinhos, cerca de 1700 anos atrás), a divindade mais comummente invocada em textos de agradecimento e proteção — sobretudo relacionados com a guerra e a segurança de familiares — era Almaqah (também transliterado como Almuqah), o deus nacional do reino de Sabá, associado à Lua e considerado divindade tutelar e protetora.

Também aparecem noutras inscrições semelhantes divindades como Athtar (associado a Vénus/à guerra) e Ta'lab (divindade tribal, sobretudo no reino de Hímiar).

Dito isto, não consigo confirmar com certeza qual destas é exatamente a divindade mencionada nesta inscrição específica sem uma transliteração e tradução epigráfica fiável do texto na imagem — a escrita musnad não é algo que eu possa ler de forma segura apenas a partir da fotografia. Se tiver a transcrição ou a fonte académica desta inscrição em concreto, posso confirmar com mais precisão a quem se dirige a mãe.

[All day Astronomy @forallcurious]

NASA has released one of the most detailed visualizations ever created of Earth’s ocean currents.

Using data from satellites and advanced ocean models, the map reveals massive rivers of moving water, swirling eddies hundreds of miles wide, and the powerful Gulf Stream carrying warm water from the Gulf of Mexico across the Atlantic.

In most countries, earning a PhD means writing a dissertation.

Hundreds of pages of theory, research, and citations that very few people will ever read.

China decided to try something different.

Under a law passed in 2024, select universities can now award engineering doctorates based on physical prototypes, new techniques, or major installations instead of traditional papers. The rule is straightforward: build something that works in real life and at scale, and you can graduate.

The first cohort has already finished.

Zheng Hehui earned his doctorate by designing reinforced steel blocks that snap together like Lego to form massive bridge pylons. His invention is already in use on the Changtai Yangtze River Bridge, the world's longest cable-stayed bridge.

Wei Lianfeng became the first practical PhD graduate at Harbin Institute of Technology by developing vacuum laser welding processes for the Nuclear Power Institute of China.

Another candidate built a fire-fighting system for large seaplanes.

At least 11 engineers have now earned their doctorates through this route.

Since 2022, more than 60 universities and 100 companies have collaborated, selecting over 20,000 students for practical doctorate programmes.

The goal is to close the gap between academic theory and industrial application, particularly in fields like artificial intelligence and semiconductors.

One student built a bridge. Another welded nuclear components.

And they got the same three letters as everyone else.
The US doesn't have such a program. What do you think? Good idea or not? Weigh in

Merci Airbus. Merci aux financiers. Merci aux gestionnaires du court terme.

Le C919 n’est pas tombé du ciel.

L’information rapportée par BFM Business est révélatrice : des pilotes européens de l’EASA ont « poussé à l’extrême » le C919 chinois sans relever de « risque matériel majeur ». L’appareil est désormais considéré comme suffisamment mature pour concurrencer directement l’A320 et le B737, le segment le plus rentable de l’aéronautique mondiale.

Ce résultat est évidemment le fruit de décennies d’investissements chinois.

Mais il est aussi celui d’une vision occidentale où l’accès immédiat au marché a souvent pesé davantage que la protection des capacités industrielles de long terme.

Pour vendre des avions en Chine, Airbus a ouvert dès 2008 une ligne d’assemblage final à Tianjin.

Ce choix n’a pas transféré les secrets de conception d’un avion.

Il a permis quelque chose de beaucoup plus discret : pendant des années, des milliers d’ingénieurs et de techniciens chinois ont pu observer, apprendre et maîtriser les méthodes d’assemblage, les processus qualité, l’organisation industrielle, la gestion des fournisseurs, la montée en cadence et les standards de certification qui font la force d’un grand constructeur aéronautique.

C’est ainsi que fonctionne la capture technologique:
-Accéder à un immense marché en échange d’une implantation industrielle.
-Assimiler progressivement les standards occidentaux de production.
-Développer ensuite une filière nationale capable de concurrencer ceux qui lui ont ouvert la porte.

Pendant vingt ans, les financiers ont regardé les contrats.

La Chine regardait les compétences.

Pendant vingt ans, les actionnaires ont célébré les livraisons et les résultats.

La Chine accumulait du savoir-faire industriel.

Aujourd’hui, le C919 obtient ses validations, rassure les pilotes européens et vient concurrencer directement les appareils qui ont servi de référence à son apprentissage industriel.

Pendant ce temps, les États-Unis raisonnent de plus en plus en dépendances stratégiques accumulées. Ils verrouillent leurs coopérations sensibles avec la Chine parce qu’ils savent qu’une capacité industrielle ne se protège pas lorsqu’elle est déjà partie.

L’Europe, elle, continue trop souvent à arbitrer entre souveraineté et rentabilité trimestrielle.

La souveraineté industrielle ne disparaît presque jamais en une seule décision spectaculaire.

Elle s’érode lorsque les financiers gagnent systématiquement les arbitrages face aux ingénieurs, lorsque le prochain résultat annuel compte davantage que les vingt prochaines années, et lorsque les marchés d’aujourd’hui sont préférés aux capacités de demain.

Le C919 est aussi le rappel d’une vérité simple :
Les bénéfices du court terme appartiennent aux actionnaires. Les conséquences du long terme appartiennent aux nations.
