I am officially unemployed as of today.

GoodHuman’s appointed administrators wrote to all staff today terminating our employment and asking for our laptops back.

But simultaneously, pointed out that key staff will be required to maintain and transfer IP to a new owner, should one be found. Slight paradox there. How are we meant to do that without laptops and without an employment contract in place? It’s a mystery, so I’m doing exactly nothing until this is clarified.

I am, however, very much available for work, should you require a Senior DevOps guy with management experience. Multi-cloud, multi-OS, terraform & python, powershell & bash, CI/CD enthusiast, automator of all things and haver of ambitious ideas.

(Edit: thanks everyone for your replies and boosts on this one. I’ve had a day to myself today but I WILL get round to replies and stuff tomorrow when I’m feeling a bit less despondent)

With 1 #transistor, I can make an inverter, a switch, or a not-very-good amplifier.

With 2 transistors, I can make a differential amplifier, a cascode, or a latch.

With 3 transistors, I can make a fairly good (Wilson) current mirror, or a Lorenz chaotic system.

20,000 transistors made a #computer that navigated spacecraft to the Moon and back.

But 10,000,000,000 transistors make a computer that's brought to its knees if it tries to interpret the Javascript used to load one #ad on a web page.
