@Canageek At this stage it is just proving that 1) can produce a homebrew silicon transistor (done by Jeri Ellsworth) and 2) produce an IC (done by Sam Zoolf this year), the next stages will be to automate the production, developing a reliable clean room/environment, miniaturising the process and improving the yield.

Coding in schools is becoming the post-industrial equivalent of the shop classes that used to train students to become the next industrial factory workers. Instead now it's training them to work in the new underpaid code monkey jobs of the capitalist post-industrial hellscape.

If you are a teacher teaching students to code, please teach them to try to go beyond this, teach them how to shape a better world and not to just fit into it the existing one that has no future for anyone.

A world in which we don't understand the technology we use becomes a world in which technology is used to control and manipulate us.
