minus-squareAtelopus-zeteki@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up21·11 days agoInvented December 23, 1947, therefore, on average, we made a danged lot of them every year since.
minus-squareshadowedcross@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up14·11 days agoWould love to see a graph, the annual amount probably increased exponentially.
minus-squaredavidgro@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·11 days agoI would guess a doubling period of roughly every 12-24 months. Actually probably much shorter since that would be same number of chips/year.
