To quote Lee: "To change the rules - change the tools!" http://www.FelsenSigns.com He's reissued the classic Homebrew Computer Club t-shirts he sold at the final meeting, and also posters! https://felsensigns.com/engineers-and-programmers-with-attit... >The cartoon shows a caricature of Chares Proteus Steinmetz – a hero of mine, posing for a photograph at the inauguration of one of his big generators (he taught American engineers how to calculate with alternating current starting around 1890). He was a German immigrant hunchback dwarf and was never admitted to “polite society” of the day, but he changed to world. >The front of the shirt shows him in front of the massive, throbbing machine – hand on the switch, dressed in formal wear. The rear of the shirt shows the rear view, with Steinmetz’ fingers crossed as the photographer takes his shot. |
