Different source

But it's the same story, no? What matters on HN is not whether the URL is the same, but whether the discussion will be the same.

What about all the Jony Ive stories?

That's something of a borderline case. We buried most of them as dupes but also spared a few. When there's a blockbuster story like that, there's a lot of energy in the community to keep talking about it, and articles tend to appear that offer significantly different perspectives.

In the case of https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20322032, currently on the front page, I'd say that's a different story.

China needs to adjust their official target of 6-6.5% GDP growth per year - it is completely unsustainable and has caused far too many risks to be taken in order to maintain it.

Unless they want the bubble to pop? I can't imagine the social upheaval it would cause there (and throughout the rest of the world)

Implying that China is correctly reporting their true GDP. Given how opaque their system is in general, it's hard to trust any official sources. It's likely they are ~2% lower than officially reported already.

When China blows up it is going to be truly spectacular: it is going to be a depression on top of a civil war on top of a movement for democracy.

I predict mass real estate sell off in every major city around the world. Millenials world wide collectively let's out a sigh of relief.

Why though? What would the wealthy Chinese people that own it want to do with the cash instead? I would think having your investments in a stable country instead of one in chaos would be ideal?

It is possible that some may feel the need to become liquid in short order, but I think that most are going to be smarter and follow your thinking. Owning real estate outside of China gives them an asset that is relatively safe from being seized and which can help fund a flight to safety if it ever comes down to a 'blood on the streets' scenario.

How many of those wealthy Chinese - never mind non-Chinese banks and investors - own property clear, and haven't leveraged it to "re-invest" it?

remember tiananmen? couple thousand people run over by tanks is a price worth paying for that government.

don't hold your breath
