1830 Dirichlet's result is qualitative only, it shows infinitude but not the asymptote in terms of the zeros for it predates Riemann.

To me this is the first substantial step after the 1896 PNT, and we really do not see much progress in the whole 20th century. Personally so far there are only two people worth mentioning,

- Euler, introduces the real zeta function and Euler product, establishes the functional equation at (half?) integers.

- Riemann, introduces complex analysis ideas to the zeta function.

And of course this result if it is true. This is first to penetrate the critical strip, which nobody had any idea how to approach for over a century and a half.

Upon joining WTO one prerequisite is 5 days-8 hours work week, while presently in China you often find 996 schedule instead, with factory workers even worse with 12 hour shifts and 2 days off a month.

It is simply sweatshop in the 21st century again, a hallmark of Neijuan.

Also June, and a better link for monthly sales by model from your source is https://www.autohome.com.cn/rank/1.

Basically Model Y has been consistently in top 3 by monthly sales of EV in China so far in 2026. If you count by 3-month or 6-month periods, it is only next to Geely EX2 at 1/3 of its price as pointed out by another comment.

Part of the fluctuation is due to one month of every quarter the Tesla Shanghai factory is oriented at export, so domestic number drops dramatically.

HN is full of ppl claiming Chinese EV is superior in every way without realizing that Tesla is incredibly popular in Chinese domestic market.

Pretty sure you were in Tibetan areas at those altitudes, a large part of Sichuan is actually Tibetan.

At the minimum, new employee background check involved providing bank statement + social security contribution + income tax history.

Why? Because such explicit numerical improvements are not that interesting, which is best summed up in a review paper [0] of our efforts on RH spanning a century and a half,

> The pathetic attempts to enlarge the ridiculous zero free region in the critical strip is a perfect example of what brute force can do without fully exploiting fundamental arithmetic aspects of the problem. (italic added)

For outsiders, zero free region is another angle abundant with numerical improvements but no groundbreaking insights. For percentage people stop at ~40% because there is no need to proceed further, just like we are not interested in computing the googol-th digit of pi although in principle we could.

The groundbreaking results are like Selberg's that goes from zero to 0.01% (actually it is left unspecified, all we know is the percentage is positive), or Zhang's twin prime bound from infinity to 70,000,000. After this leap the pure numerical difference between 0.01%, 40%, 67% or even 100% is not substantial, and that's partly why Selberg did not even bother to compute it. Also RH will not follow from 100%, because in mathematics 100% does not mean all.

On the other hand, it is also wrong to dismiss such results all together. Riemann already know the real part of all zeros are bewteen zero and one, and RH says they equal 1/2. If someone or some LLM proved they are all less than 0.99, well this would be huge, and I'd bet they would easily get a Fields and be remembered forever. Innocent looking results could have drastically different technical depth behind them.

Alas math ppl tend to agree that RH will not be proved one bit at a time. The fundamental arithmetic aspects, once found out, will likely knock out not only RH but all the other L-functions in one go.

Huh? In June the best selling EV in China is Model Y across all price ranges. Model 3 a tie for the 8th with many ~$10k entry level higher up. If you only rank among ~$40k, then it's a tie for the 4th.

This is very very far from faltering so badly.

What? In EU Crelle's Journal is founded in 1826, while in the US the American Journal of Mathematics in 1878.

Model Y remains American just like iPhone, regardless of where they are made. Nobody refers to iPhone as Chinese or Indian.

In the June just passed Tesla Model Y is the best selling EV in China.

Is academia serious enough? Well ever since LLM journals' inboxes are bombarded with submissions, and this applies across fields. Like OP said, ppl serious or not are asking LLM about any stuff, also serious or not.

Sounds impressive in relative terms but not quite so in absolute terms, because PCB is dirty cheap so 100% is just $10-$20.

> it's not unreasonable to expect them to deliver higher and more consistent quality than home fabs.

Actually it is the opposite, OshPark quality is consistently higher than JLC for years. Chinese manufacturers can do Apple products but also Temu craps, so don't get your hopes high. The only reasonable expectation is being cheap reduces quality.

As long as you are invited and keep your mouth shut about ccp, China does not care about papers. One famous example is an athlete, when questioned about nationality after winning an Olympic gold medal for China, publicly claimed that I am Chinese when I am in China, and American when I am in the US.

I don't think OP is doing this, just stating the obvious. The invitation implies $$$ but not naturalization.

> If you want to live in a country, you might want to actually be a citizen of that country. Does that need explaining?

Yeah might, so it is big question depending on the situation, and even bigger once you got more passports or permanent residence. For example people intentionally avoid US permanent residence or citizenship for global taxation.

> Are you seriously suggesting that people can literally just not engage at all with the society they live in?

All the time, especially the US expats in China. They tend to live in nice communities for foreigners in a few tier-1 cities, they go to western style international hospitals and their kids goes to fancy international schools. Basically employers have everything prepared nicely for them, hence the contrast of China between foreigners and citizens.

In terms of racism in China or east Asia as a whole, there is practically no problem for white ppl, small problem for indians, big problem for blacks.

In the reverse direction in the US there are Chinese/Latino spending their lives in their own ethnic community without speaking English at all, it is not that uncommon, just invisible.

Not sure about India but delivery in China has everything to do with loopholes.

No health care and social security for most, and for the few who have the company artificially fake income for tax evasion.

Working conditions are the usual 12~14 hours a day with 2~4 days off a month.

The electric bike they are riding are dangerously over-limits and categorizes as motorcycles, which are actually banned in most big cities. Of the few that allow it, Shanghai for example, you need to pay ~$70k for registration alone.

In the US the situation is better but not free from problems, for example the first job for a lot of the illegal immigrants who can not speak English is package sorting with similar working schedule, but at least it pays good enough.
