Jack Dongarra, a University of Tennessee computer scientist who maintains the supercomputer rankings, told the New York Times that the Chinese computer “blows away the existing No. 1 machine.”

“We don’t close the books until Nov. 1, but I would say it is unlikely we will see a system that is faster,” he said.

Competition is good for all, but this is really disappointing. I can only hope it serves as a wake up call.

Oh goodie. Yeah, let's keep educating their grad students at our universities, building hi tech factories on their soil, and hiring these bastards here at our DOD contractors.
