google is giant and chaotic, and chrome likely is spagetti code mess. Its hard to tell if their approach is reasonable and fully implemented without digging deep.
I work on such project, where we use simplified C++, and it works fine, no memory corruptions in my experience.

sure, hypocrisies is part of rules for big games: politics and business.

they tell the story in blog post, that they don't allow claude in China, but those labs use some proxy services to access claude and mix traffic with regular users to hids its activities
there is a good chance Rust will start dying and will actually die by being replaced by some new hyper-overengineered lang much faster than C++ actually die.

my point is that other children with no extremely heavy investments into perl v1.0, will have some skills in c++ v1.0 and python v1.0, and will have advantage in adapting Tensorflow v1.0, which is more valuable than skills in perl v2.0. Heavily investing in one industry you sacrifice some flexibility.
So, this is multifactor analysis, lets say wise American people will elect me as next president, I would create list of industries, assign metrics (national security importance, potential revenue in 5y from now, impact on other industries, potential margin, risks of failure, etc), then build some formula which aggregate those metrics into single, and base on final metric allocate weighted funds to support N top industries.
> steel, heavy industry, semiconductors, machine tools
the question is if single country can carry all these industries at loss for prolonged period of time.
Another approach is to rely on international supply chain and speed of innovation, we can't produce steel domestically profitably today, fine, we may buy it from diversified international supplier network, and rebuild it fast tomorrow if needed using new tech, and focus on many other high margin verticals, instead of putting many billions of resources into infra which could be obsolete tomorrow.
Its just question of risk/benefit ratio, benefit is clear: cheap meat, because producers will be less impacted by deceases. Risks are not so clear in this case.
