Steel Absorbs Gas Like a Sponge
Steve Mould
I've known about hydrogen embrittlement for a long time, but I had no idea that carbon and methane were involved. I don't think Steve ever mentions the term 'hydrogen embrittlement'. You have to excuse Steve for his horrible pronunciation of methane, he calls it ME-thane. I dunno, maybe all Brits do that. Anyway, Steve's video is pretty great. He ties several bits of esoteric technology together to tell this story.
At the tale end of the video (14:50) he tells an amusing story about AI scams. That leads into at ad. I don't get any spam calls. My phone tells me it's a spam call, so I just reject the call. Don't know how accurate it is.

Yes, the Brits call it me-thane.
Have you ever tried to understand someone born and raised in rural South Carolina? Or Boston?
I've run into many strange accents and I can usually make out what they are saying. I did ask for directions from a black man in New York City once. I could not understand him, so I asked him to repeat himself. He did and I still could not understand him. So I gave up and kept walking.
