Computing, the wet way

[Dutch_Master]

Brilliant video from these guys, explaining the basics of computing: logic gates. So, grab a towel, 'cause it's gonna be Wet Inside^(tm)

 

 

PS: don't use beer, you'll definitely get a memory leak!

Random barely related story:  I had a silicon design course where we were tasked with doing silicon-level design of logic gates.  and, xor, nor etc (where you're drawing the gates like a 2d model with various feature sizes).  Being my normal procrastinating self I started late and ended up really only having time to do the design for and, or, and I think an inverter gate.  And then I had the realization that all the more advanced logic gates can be made using just those 3 basic gates.   There was a lot of copy pasting and inefficiency of wiring together waaaay too many and and or gates.

 

Think I got a B or something with a "wtf" from the professor.  Ayyy you didn't specify how tight the designs had to be.
