How Grandmother Triode Stole Binary from the Sun
- michaelnoguera 4y agoI just stumbled upon this great story [1] and was surprised it had not been posted here before. "How Grandmother Triode Stole Binary from the Sun" is a newer bit of folk/computer lore, by Jack Manganese. He credits two Cherokee stories, "Grandmother Spider Steals the Sun" and "The First Fire" as inspiration [2]. May Grandmother Triode and Slide Rule Demon bring a smile to you all.
