The origin of poker chips came about because gold dust and nuggets were too messy and inconsistent for betting in the Old West. Standardized chips solved this problem. Poker stable coin much? #PokerInnovation #SwCPoker #ChipHistory #Poker #StableCoins #Facts #History

Michael Faraday describes the "extraordinary case" of his discovery of electrical conduction increasing with temperature in silver sulfide crystals. This is the opposite to that observed in copper and other metals.

Nice read https://t.co/pTq3ax0b60 "Signetics announced the NE555 timer/oscillator IC in 1972, 50 years ago. Over five decades, this simple 8-pin chip has consistently sold in the billions, each year" .. and the last part (SS below) is just 👌

Intel's First Product
Intel introduced its first product: The 3101 SRAM with this press release.
It was priced at $99.50 each, or a whopping $1.56 per-bit. This was cutting edge performance, circa 1969.

Tencor (later evolved to be KLA - Tencor) is in the bedrock of the semiconductor equipment industry. It developed many products that were essential to chip manufacturing. Some are still made today. Read More: https://t.co/RKNSWXf1r5 #semiconductorhistory #klatencor #chiphistory
The 5 strategic causes behind the long-term failure of #Japan’s #Semiconductorindustry are covered in this paper. Some were of their own making. Others were #macroeconomic tsunami's that could not have been avoided. https://t.co/5iqtJ6YbfR #semiconductorhistory #chiphistory
It Really Does Start With Sand . . . This series of images show how silicon wafers are made from sand, purifying the #silicon and then growing single crystal ingots that look like huge sausages. Read More: https://t.co/3Ncl2ZwueV #chiphistory #semiconductorindustry #ichistory
@AuracleDMG @gw3m @cyanidedansen @casscuttlefish #ChipHistory began with the CHIPs TV series. Audiences all over the world were impressed by hunky latin cop Eric Strada, and the fact that no black person was mistreated on screen. "CHIPtunes" were composed as a tribute.
@AuracleDMG @gw3m @cyanidedansen @casscuttlefish In 1853, an angry chef in Saratoga made overcooked, thinly sliced tunes for an unhappy customer. It was surprisingly successful and word quickly spread about the so-called "Chiptunes". This is the earliest known use of the term. #ChipHistory
@AuracleDMG @gw3m @cyanidedansen @casscuttlefish #Chiphistory Beck invented chiptune after creating a Game Boy from the clay and the earth just like God created Adam. Because the Game Boy does not have any ribs, he could not make the Game Girl.
Development of #LSDJ got off to a rocky start when a mischievous nerd sent @kotlinski a modified game boy with LSD embedded in the buttons. It's said that this led to the creation of the Z command. #ChipHistory

@cmichprez My journey to CMU started in 1940 with my Granpa J attending Central Michigan Teaching College (now CMU) as a Bearcat. Since then, my dad, my aunt, my uncle, two of my brothers, two of my sisters, and I have all attended CMU. #ChipHistory #RunsInTheFamily
