   During WWII Germany had limited access to chromium and cobalt so they developed alternative metallurgy for their engines etc. I know they nickel plated their cylinder bores. I’m sure there’s more detail available somewhere.

   I’m surprised to see no mention of Certificates of Need: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certificate_of_need . In most of the US hospitals need to have a license for their number of beds, the idea being that regulators do

   I saw a video from the WS2812 factory and from what I remember all of the LEDs were tested individually on the die before assembly. I don’t know if that’s typical but those are pretty cheap for what they are.

   I never used to have this problem until recently, when it started happening every time I’d start my car - and even every time I’d stop playing other media in my car. I ended up uninstalling Apple Music. At least they let you do that.

    Milei has committed to dollarization, so at some point pesos are likely to be worthless. The government probably will (?) offer to exchange pesos for dollars but the government doesn’t have many dollars so their rate is likely to be terribl

    Yeah I see the same and have thought it strange. I think it’s just that footer was designed to promote their video content and Ars doesn’t produce much video so that’s the most recent thing to put there.
