I made radio deck brackets out of an old gate hinge the other day, so, like I get it.

This leaves me wondering if its so simple, why are chips so expensive, the sand couldnt be cheaper and you do is shine lights on it and polish a lot

Its skipping the number of specialist skills needed to make not just the chips but the machines making the chips, refining materials, etc. From scratch there is critical information in about 1 million heads needed.

If it were up to me to figure any of these things out…..we’d still be in the Stone Age.

How did someone figure that out?

My favorite thing about this video is how he demonstrates cutting the silicon with a butter knife 🧈

So easy, anyone can do it

I love how he says everything so casually as if you could just do this at home.

It’s even crazier when you realize the Wright brothers first flight was only a hundred years before this technology.

The wild thing to me is that no one person invented these, or this process. Not even close. It’s a massively collaborative cultural product, and the ideas that allow them to exist preceded them by a long time. No single person who ever existed could build such a thing by themselves.

It’s like that Turbo Encabulator video but helpful.

Yeah that first statement is just wrong. You don’t get 98% pure silicon dioxide by smashing a rock. If said rock was just quartz then sure, but most rocks aren’t just one mineral. If you take a silicon Rick granitic rock and smashed it, it would probably be 50-60 % silicon dioxide max.
I don’t have that much trust in the video when the first stat they list is just wrong.
