I might have gone utterly over the top for a 15min talk at @webdevconf.com doing stuff that makes zero difference to the talk.

So yes, I have designed my own PCB for a gameboy cart that has dual ROMs that includes my talk _and_ a ROM for repairing the Gameboy.

(and yes, it's wide, it's shellless)

Imagine your computer hosts just 8 transistors. By tallying its transistors, your computer can count all the way up to 8. 8 transistors together make up one byte; enough to render a character like โ€œCโ€. If this 1-byte computer actually used the tally system, rendering the word CUNT would take up half its total capacity.

I have scripted the next briefs.video. It is based on my WDC Bristol conference talk and is about binaries (in terms of both computing and cognitive distortion).
