Regarding your comment about new technologies always coming from the US, that is totally not true. Let's start with Ruby, that is from Japan 🙃
Ruby on Rails was created by DHH, who is from Denmark
Elixir was created by José Valim, from Brazil
Python was created by Guido van Rossum, from the Netherlands
And these are just from the top of my head. There are many other great engineers creating new technologies that are not from the US.
Now, the reason a lot of advances are made in the US, is because of the amount of big companies that invest in new technologies.
Facebook, Google, Apple, Amazon, etc. all started there. It could be a cultural thing, I'm not sure, but the fact that there is a lot of people with money to invest on new things certainly helps.
There are also other big companies that are also investing in new technologies that are not from the US, Alibaba is a great example. The tides are changing in the world. The US will not be the biggest technology hub in the world for much longer.
I searched who created webpack then found a German engineer did. Also a Chinese engineer created Vue.js(Though he had worked in America).
Definitely there are a lot of great engineers in the world not only in America in terms of individual.
Regarding to business market scale and investment for technologies, Chinese company must be a big player already.
I am wondering about my career... to be a good engineer.
Thank you for telling me your opinion with various aspects about career.
Any time. I really think you can really advance your career outside the US. It might even be better to do that first and then try to move there. Applying for an H1B visa is easier if you already have a Master’s degree. You get put on a different list, and there is a higher priority for applicants with higher education.
I'm glad you liked my advice.

It seems that I had a bias about technologies.

Yeah, actually I don't have Master's degree so it will be hard to get a visa.
I will start to get Master's degree in Computer Science.
