  Silicon is extremely common.

    Silicon is, but silicon is like a little layer in between copper, lead, gold, maybe indium or something.

    It’s dielectric, meaning it is conductive depending on how you run current through it… But that’s just one part of the gate. You have millions of gates all connected in sigils…

    By far, the biggest use of silicon in any computer is the fiberglass board, which does nothing… You could make it out of wood, or just not use one and connect all the components with rigid wires and have a really cool but fragile lack of board

      silicon is a semiconductor! a dielectric medium is just a fancy term for an electrical insulator.

      :.dielectric grease is NOT CONDUCTIVE.

      You literally have no clue what you’re talking about, do you?

      Dielectric is synonymous to insulator. Silicon is a semi-conductor.

      Silicon is literally what makes most transistor a transistor. And transistor are what make modern logic circuit perform logic operations. The metal parts are just for passively transport electrical charges between the active parts. (There are other semi-conductor which would work perfectly fine for that purpose, but silicon is more common.)

      The fiberglass board is not silicon, it’s fiberglass… glass is silicon oxide, but that’s mostly a coincidence.

      A mosfet, the type of transistor most often used in logic circuits, is made of silicon, with various doping elements, covered by an oxide layer on top of which lays a metalic gate. The oxide layer is an insulator that only serves to prevent current from flowing from the gate into the silicon beneath. The presence of charge on the gate changes the electrical property of the sillicon beneath the oxide, switching it from from insulator to conductor depending on the inscribed dopant pattern.

      I guess the best way to get to the truth on the internet is still to spew around bullshit, to get someone who know irritated enough to write something. But geez… that’s all fairly well explained on wikipedia

    Not in the purity needed to make semiconductors.

      It’s refined. It isn’t found like that.

  “They learn the language of the stones” make no sense there, no? Are they trying to portray a shift from hardware to software?

    Yeah, I took that to mean programming.

  • DragonOracleIX@lemmy.ml ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    It actually makes perfect sense here. The physical hardware by itself is nothing more than various pieces of metal. The “language of the stones” is referring to the programming languages that tell the hardware what to do.

    source

    • sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

      Eh, I’d consider “the language of the stones” to be the binary instructions to the CPU. They skipped a few steps from manually sending CPU instructions to high level languages, but all high level languages eventually run that “language of the stones” at the end of the day.
