⭐ Happy Chinese New Year!
Following the success of the Chinese startup DeepSeek, many are surprised at how quickly China has caught up with the US in AI. However, China’s progress in algorithmic efficiency hasn't come out of nothing. Chinese students have long outperformed others in math and programming at international olympiads 🏆
When it comes to producing outstanding performers in math and science, China's secondary education system is superior to that of the West. It fosters fierce competition among students, a principle borrowed from the highly efficient Soviet model 🎖
In contrast, most Western schools discourage competition, prohibiting public announcements of students' grades and rankings. The rationale is understandable — to protect students from pressure or ridicule. However, such measures also predictably demotivate the best students. Victory and defeat are two sides of the same coin. Eliminate the losers — and you eliminate the winners ☯
For many students, motivation to excel in high school comes from treating it as a competitive game, striving to rank first against strong opponents. Removing transparency in student performance can make school feel meaningless for ambitious teenagers. It’s not surprising that many gifted kids now find competitive gaming more exciting than academics — at least in video games, they can see how each player ranks 😵
Telling all students they are champions, regardless of performance, may seem kind — until you consider how quickly reality will shatter this illusion after graduation. Reality, unlike well-meaning school policies, does have public grades and rankings — whether in sports, business, science, or technology. AI benchmarks that demonstrate DeepSeek's superiority are one of such public rankings. And more are coming. Unless the US secondary education system undergoes radical reform, China’s growing dominance in technology seems inevitable 🇨🇳
Многие уже давно не читают, но им все равно грустно. Потому что это не про журнал, а про молодость/детство.
подшивка журналов за 2004-2010 год занимает особое место в моем туалете. С удовольствием перечитываю глупые хвалебные статейки очередного чуда снг-геймдева, который не доживет до релиза, или доживет, но все будет плохо.
Пожалуй, впервые за последние лет 6-8 куплю номер, хотя бы на память, даже открывать необязательно.
Интересно, что там на DVD…
Пока регистрировался на сайте, оба варианта последнего номера игромании пропали из наличия ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ну твою ж мать.
Тоже думаю прикупить) Всё таки эпоха реально уходит)
Возникают те же мысли. Там большой тираж сейчас?
