A punch-card version of Google.
It'll return the first eight hits and then kick you over to a version that isn't fifty years old.
And if that isn't enough for you, try your hand at a virtual slide rule, with more of them here.
A blog by a "sucker" and a "loser" who served her country in the Navy.
If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
That was a blast from the past.
ReplyDeleteUp until a year or two ago the national Automotive Cert Board used the updated version: fill in the appropriate dot with your pencil. At work I diagnosed computer versus input/output signal problems by watching wavelengths on an oscilloscope, at Test time it was like Grade School.
They finally went to computer based testing.

And Slide rules! I remember people carrying them but that was right about the time that computers began to exist. I am a child of the electronic age. In 9th grade we were taught to scavenge parts from dismantled Nike Rockets to make simple electronic novelties.

I programmed with punch cards in high school. My biggest program was around 100 cards, but I saw others with stacks and stacks of cards. With punch cards, debugging is not a programmer's only heartache. Folds, rips, and dog-ears become serious business.
