minus-squareAtelopus-zetekilinkfedilink22•5 months agoInvented December 23, 1947, therefore, on average, we made a danged lot of them every year since.
minus-squareShadowedcrosslinkfedilinkEnglish14•5 months agoWould love to see a graph, the annual amount probably increased exponentially.
minus-square@davidgro@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish6•5 months 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.
