China is living in the future because they have highway intersections? I really don’t get this meme. You can find large highway intersections in the US too and that doesn’t make the US any better. Honestly I would say the opposite.

But if the worst thing you can say about Chinese urbanism is “It could use a few more trains”… eh.
We’ve got this kind of motivation, only its going to datacenters for the benefit of a handful of trillionaire megalomaniacs, rather than for commercial grade infrastructure that benefits the public at large.

China is making rapid improvements in high speed rail. It would be nice if we could get that kind of motivation in other countries.
