We keep talking about building end applications like jet engines, ChatGPT, without talking about what it takes to build the fundamental technological blocks and own the knowledge space in these domains. Always looking for that quick shortcut routes without valuing core knowledge.

Just plain vanilla “I bend to a stronger bully who has more leverage to all his whims while I gnash my teeth at the weaker partner over whom I believe I have a lot of leverage and my policy will will be whatever suits my image for that day”.
Ingraham: "How is allowing 600K students from China putting America First? Those are 600K spots that American kids won't get." . Commerce Sec. Lutnick: "If you didn't have those 600K students, the bottom 15% of colleges would go out of business."

How the editor allowed such a ridiculous piece to be published is beyond me. This veteran is whining about ₹3000 crore spent on jet engine when a typical jet engine development programme costs ₹50-60000 crore of RDT&E even for established players.
#India's own #Kaveri Jet Engine- Four decades of hardwork, over Rs 3000Cr of tax payers' money & aspirations of the country -all went in vein. My piece in @EconomicTimes as to how India failed to develop its own Jet engine & whats the way out?.MUST READ.
