Maybe I'm wrong but the writing seems to blame here not the medium. I'm ignorant of the topic and had a hard time even understanding what the person was writing about. From my limited understanding, it would have been more informative to say "Intel was supposed to deliver a supercomputer but is late so now the USA is falling behind China in supercomputing." However, maybe I'm missing the actual content though and I won't disagree that the Medium is the Message.
