With the stonishing help of only two states, that don’t even exist in real life, the world is more complex and connected than ever. What? Which states? Easy, I’m talking about Zeros and Ones. Have you ever try to figure out how anything works nowadays? Like cellphones, or computers. What do you mean I can talk to anyone, anytime, from virtually anywhere? I can hear my dead grandpa saying, out loud, BULLSHIT, if I tell him I have a completely wireless device I can actually talk and see, in real-time, the person on the other side of the call, even I’m here and this person in the other side of the world. Hicking. Or inside a car, whatever. And all of this was made possible because of one magnificent lady who invented a way to teach devices how to do some specific task.

Of course, I’m talking about my precious Countess of Lovelace, also known as Ada Lovelace. But in fact, what she did was open very large windows of possibilities that lead inventive people to work on ideas of making devices to do all the hard-work of repetitive jobs, very precisely. And they were very successful. Evolving so fast, that we even hit on that point where people invented things we don’t need to make our life easier, but somehow, more complex and, difficult. And we suddenly became slaves of those things we never needed, but now, is unthinkable living without it.

And now, yes, we have all kinds of devices and gadgets, sharing every second of our lives to the world, in real-time, making everything, since buying lettuce to buying entire companies. Now the part you never have thought about: When you start to think how those things work, even they being so different, there’s only one answer. When you go low level enough, everything, and I mean, every device we use, converges to these two states. Zeros and ones blinking so fast in wires, in radio waves, everywhere but, in the end, everything resumes to the exactly same way that telegraphers worked. A little faster, obviously. Yes, these old-fashioned, antique, outdated way, yet so far, the best we know. Now imagine this: If the world were able to achieve ALL THIS with only two states, what we were able to do if we had, like, 3 states?

Hi, I’m Fausto, I am a hack mechanic, hack electronic technician, hack problem-finder. Sometimes, I’m able to solve them too. My job was to fix premium cars at my shop, but I had to permanently close it, because of the COVID-19 quarantine. And I have no idea what I’m gonna do next. I’m trying to organize my thoughts and my stuff in one place to help me when I will be able to back to work. Until then, I’m having some ideas, like, create a group to help needed people, kids, and teach them electronic basics, assembly and disassembly, how to manage technological disposal, and how to make money helping the environment, by fixing, recycling, refurbishing or reselling.

I’m gonna let my blog open to the world, with some tips I managed to find at the cost of some – or in some cases, a LOT of – time. Of everything. Since tips to fix LED lamps to tables and calculations that help editing engine control units firmware. I hope it helps anyone.
