  1. 1960s Navy Training Film on Computers
    Surprise! Today's post is about a video from Periscope Films from sixty years ago on the fundamental building blocks of computers from way back then. Right off we're told that computers no longer rely on primative things like electromechanical relays (gags) or vacuum tubes (wretches). NOW computers are

  2. Gamefinds: NANDgame
    NANDgame is one of those puzzle games that's really an educational game in disguise. By hooking up wires and relays, then logic gates, then larger pieces of basic computing hardware, you construct a basic processor from first principles, step by excruciating step.

    This is actually a puzzle solution, which I don't usually in

  9. I build a section for #LogicGates on the #BlockHeadsSMP redstone world!

    pretty happy with the result :3 now we can always look them up while building and also directly test them out.

    there's multiple variants which get more compact and complex - in case someone wants to use them in farms and stuff!

    also books that explain briefly how the gates work, so peeps can learn from it!

  11. Are there limits to what computers can do? How complex is too complex for computation? The question of how hard a problem is to solve lies at the heart of an important field of computer science called Computational Complexity. Computational complexity theorists want to know which problems are practically solvable using clever algorithms and which problems are truly difficult, maybe even virtually impossible, for computers to crack. This hardness is central to what’s called the P versus NP problem, one of the most difficult and important questions in all of math and science.

    This video covers a wide range of topics including: the history of computer science, how transistor-based electronic computers solve problems using Boolean logical operations and algorithms, what is a Turing Machine, the different classes of problems, circuit complexity, and the emerging field of meta-complexity, where researchers study the self-referential nature of complexity questions.

  13. Can anyone recommend some software that will let me some digital circuitry with a few hundred on a Mac? I have had a Cunning Idea which will almost certainly not work 🙂

  15. I made a video to help explain how to play #b001e0: youtube.com/watch?v=rY7Kxq_VOq

    This is a fun game you can play to practice your knowledge of basic #logicGates. There is a bit of strategy involved, but it doesn't lend an overwhelming advantage to whoever employs it, so anyone can win the games.

  16. @highergeometer It totally is! It's a great little card game for teaching #LogicGates.

    I lost the game in the photo.

    #Mathway was around long before #NeuralNetworks became popular (2002 !!) therefore I doubt it ...

    .. is what I would like to say..

    But everyone claims it is a "#chat #ai" without #source

    #copypasta reports be boppin'

    Also it depends what you deem "neuralnetwork"

    A uneducated mind can be impressed with a few #OR , #XOR and #logicgates

    Ppl love to think #santa is real too /s

  19. Huh. Implementing logic gates using crabs. 🙂 From 2012.

    "Soldier crabs Mictyris guinotae exhibit pronounced swarming behaviour. The swarms of the crabs tolerant of perturbations. In computer models and laboratory experiments we demonstrate that swarms of soldier crabs can implement logical gates when placed in a geometrically constrained environment."
