Samsung Chip Complex Workers React to Pay Deal

A last-gasp pay deal at Samsung's largest chip complex near Seoul averted a strike, bringing relief to local businesses but exposing deep divisions among workers, especially between memory and logic chip divisions, as bonuses spark jealousy and fears of defections to rival SK Hynix.

I need a single XOR gate. Should I:

1. Use CD4070 and ignore the other three gates? 40¢ in single quantities. SOIC-14 amount of space.

2. Build it out of transistors? 5-6 transistors, ~13¢/transistor in quantities of 10.

3. Something else?

Part numbers for #logicchips are pretty haphazard, but there are some patterns. That said, those patterns just make it more annoying that you can point to a part number and see how it would be the right chip for your #retrocomputer build, but that chip doesn’t actually exist. If only there were a 74X577 or a 74X239… if you see what I mean. Of course, if you can see those parts (574 with WE instead of OE, or 139 with active high outputs) anywhere else, please let me know.
