Thank You so much for uploading this series. I grew up in japan and wasn't around computers in the home until the 00's back in the USA. I think like a lot of people I've grown up with technology as a mystery and a black box. Coming into consciousness with calculators and desktop computers and not thinking of the journey the technology has come, how fast, and the minutia. I started learning electronics and electrical engineering and this has be an aesthetic and educational find. I've been racking my brains trying to get transistors and the descriptions and visual aid they used really helped. Interesting it's a Foreign Ministry of Affairs video from Japan and it's targeted towards Americans. Is it?
So strange that these brilliant minds couldn't think of making their hot room with one flexible plastic wall with holes through which their hands could pass, so they could manipulate the calculator in his heated chamber without getting hot themselves... Almost unbelievable. I wonder what they do for manufacturing processes in the thousands of degrees? Do they walk inside the hearth of the steel furnace and bring water to drink?
Great!
