Christopher HorrellSomeone has submitted a working turing machine to Lego Ideas and I'm loosing my mind over how cool it is: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/10a3239f-4562-4d23-ba8e-f4fc94eef5c7 #lego
bazcurtis@chorrell that is amazing. Looks like a nice fiddly build

omg... that's mind blowing 🤯

Stefan Eissing@chorrell The tape is a bit shorter than the spec says. 😌
Harry W.@chorrell this is seriously cool. And lead me down the path of re-reading about Turing Machines which I've not brushed up on in years 😅
Deb has moved! (see profile) 🇨🇦@chorrell so ... a computer that still works when we blow ourselves back to the stone age? 🤔
(Except, we'll have to make it out of trees and power it with donkeys… )
Lockpick Extreme@chorrell amazing work, thanks for sharing!
Terry Boon@chorrell Impressive, thanks for sharing this! Of course a Turing Machine would technically need an infinite "tape" but I guess the laws of physics, economics, and the Lego Ideas platform (3000 bricks max, apparently) make this tricky in practice :-) #TuringMachine #Lego
Vincent 🌻🇪🇺 en 🌹☘️@chorrell Cool, yes, but with limited fun potential after the first “haha, it is indeed a Turing machine” imo

Mike P@chorrell But can it run Doom? ;)

💉*9 Roger@chorrell this is reminiscent of Charles Babbage's work, some fascinating parallels and differences. Best source on Babbage for anyone interested is the Sidney Padua book (which is entertaining and whacky but also full of great detail).

Splendid!
