unrelated to anything at all, falstad.com/circuit/ is fun to play with

if anyone's interested even a little bit in electrical engineering it's a great tool for building your understanding of how basic components work, better than LTspice or other spice-based simulators for that specifically (though it's definitely not as good for actual engineering work)

plus it's just kinda fun to see how things interact. play with the examples in the circuits dropdown!

note/disclaimer/self-horn-tooting: this is a project we've contributed to. Several of the examples are our work, namely the following: 

- all entries in op amps > chaotic circuits
- misc devices > jfets > lambda diode
- misc devices > jfets > lambda diode oscillator
- misc devices > light bulb > wien bridge oscillator
- other passive circuits > relays > relay oscillator
- transistors > gilbert cell multiplier
- transistors > true RMS converter
- transistors > joule thief
- mosfets > analog reciprocal
- mosfets > cmos crystal oscillator
- sequential logic > shift registers > universal

we also corrected a mistake in analog/digital > half-flash (subranging) ADC

@Felthry that's pretty cool!

I think we might play with this a bit later 😄

(oh, wow, it would be cool if there were a soldering iron emoji)
