With how small feature sizes are on chips, I wonder what sort of easter eggs the designer have hidden in them.

Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

The dark mechanicus at work I see
The nanometer-scale sigils are getting increasingly elaborate, presumably because the tinier demons are better at escaping.
Case in point, check out the "increasing need for mask correction" image in this article: https://spectrum.ieee.org/amp/inverse-lithography-2659629907
As someone with formal education in electrical engineering, electricity is magic and we are wizards
I'm making this comment from a magical device that sends bottled lightning though rocks inscribed with very exact runes in order to display information from people all over the world.

Just remember to include a 666 timer
https://scp-db.fandom.com/wiki/666_timer
I like the the manufacturer is listed as unknown when the picture shows it's obviously made by Texas instruments. There are not a lot of companies with a logo of Texas that makes ICs.
Yep that's what I use. I bought them in an IKEA, but it seemed like I was walking around forever
How many goddamn ads can you fit into a wiki?
Get the browser plugin that automatically redirects you either to a sensible alternative (such as UESP for Elder Scrolls) or a breezewiki mirror.
Then software engineers harness that evil in mazes of their own.
At least that’s what the code I’ve read looks like.
BuT tHe CoDE iS seLFeXplaNAtoRy!!
you should really read "the laundry files" by Charles Stross. It's a whole series of stories on this topic basically
Seconded. This is an excerpt from a comment I made the other day about it:
If you like making fun of quiverfull ministries, programming, Eldritch horrors, British humor (humour?), spy thrillers, agitated engineers, vampires that don't exist, bloodthirsty elves, and a thinly veiled story about anthropomorphic climate change then this is the series for you.
Entities from other realities are listening and waiting for our computers to summon them.
I once tried writing a bit with demons being like the "demons" sometimes used in philosophy where they're more like mysterious, reality altering things that sort of hide between our understanding of the universe and the unknown as opposed to scary monster things. It didn't really go anywhere. The person I was writing with vanished on me. I still think it's an interesting concept though and it sort of fits this post
Edit: I realize this is an odd concept, this is what I mean by "philosophical demon" lol. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demon_(thought_experiment)
In thought experiments, philosophers and scientists occasionally imagine entities with special abilities as a way to pose thought experiment or highlight apparent paradoxes.
The word "demon" here does not necessarily connotate a demon, a malevolent being. For instance, when William Thomson (Lord Kelvin) came up with the Maxwell's demon, to highlight the implications of James Clerk Maxwell statistical interpretation of thermodynamics. He used the term in analogy to daemons in Greek mythology, supernatural beings as unseen forces of nature.
Huh. I always through Maxwell's demon was created by Maxwell himself.
What next, are you going to say that this is not his cat?
Have you read Childhood's End by Arthur C Clarke?
No, what is that?
You will probably enjoy it.
So that's why Windows Explorer has to be restarted every 30 minutes!
Eh what now?
I have to restart explorer.exe a few times a year but not more than that.
Don't share this with the Republican conspiracy theorists or they are legitimately gonna start spreading that on their Q boards.
Honestly, does he know how dumb they are? They'll ban voltage or some shit.
Make America run on vacuum tubes again!
Lmao, do it… would love to see what that entails
I'm trying to get them to ban carbon emissions by saying its hell matter heating the atmosphere. Proof: 6 protons 6 neurons 6 electrons!
Heretical machine spirits
Just sooth them, quarterly earnings report is due
The demons tell me they like it
SMT?
Glad to see I'm not the only one who thought about that 😅
SMH. What a DIP.
