• Why Jet Engines Aren't "Made in China"

  Not ballpoint pens. Ballpoint pen tips. In that regard, China joins three other countries - Switzerland, Japan and Germany. The article below gives a general explanation on the precision manufacturing required to make them, and the repercussions of said achievement. https://medium.com/@topbosstalk/how-ballpoint-tips-became-chinas-toughest-lesson-in-precision-f4f58c10ced7. - Source: Hacker News / 2 days ago
