i actually interpret it different. it’s not about being too complicated.
it’s about the fact that you can’t fundamentally prove that physics behaves in a certain way. You can only observe it. And you can hope and pray that god doesn’t fundamentally change the laws of the universe tomorrow. So, in some sense, it’s magic. Also it’s kinda weird in some way that the universe works the way it does. It’s kinda just a random expression of divine thought, or a miracle, idk what you call it, but some call it magic.
“You can’t deny science when you have a radio made by science and see all the electronic”
Turns out, once radios are complex enough, you don’t see the electronic anymore
We lost something big with the transition to digital, and that’s DIY hardware built entirely from discrete components.
Nowadays, everything uses a microcontroller.
There was a sweet spot when computers were actually made out of transistors.
Nowadays, they’re all made by arcane magic.
And to follow up on that:
;D
Sufficiently Advanced Technology.

Fucking magnets, how do they work?
Or completely glued together and you get a cease and desist when you start tinkering with it.
C&Ds make great firestarters.
