Transistors have created more wealth & prosperity than any other technology in the history of mankind!
Think of how many different jobs have been created or changed by integration of internet connected computers of many kinds. Mainframes, servers, cloud compute, e-commerce, online, WorldWideWeb, Wi-Fi, NFC, Bluetooth, 4G LTE, 5G NR mobile broadband smartphones, tablets, laptops, smart watches, wearables, internet of things, information enhanced automobiles with hundreds of chips, integrated circuit modules connected by miles of wire & onboard in vehicle mobile internet via cellular data built into the ECU or master control module so that if the 12V SLI AGM battery has power it uploads "Blackbox" data to the automakers continually, usually at 3am to avoid interference from sunlight or other users, when RF noise levels are lowest.
Blockchain & crypto are not just new currencies like Bitcoin or BTC but also a way to verify ownership of assets like homes, vehicles, land, buildings, machines, jewelry, drugs, gold, organs, or whatever people want to buy with anonymity, almost like cash providing a personal data security layer, since when you pay with cash no information about you is exchanged, well people use cryptocurrencies to buy LSD online for example, to pay for limbic fluid exchange services of many kinds with sellers of the oldest service business in the world, you know what I mean. While money itself cannot buy a "Nice Life" as many broke former lottery winners in America can explain, it can pay for nice stuff, and if you have enough, as in hundreds of millions or billions of dollars, then you can exert power politically or more often economically, by pressuring news agencies via NGO's that you fund to promote your specific special interests into the public discourse in social media platforms & conventional sources of news like newspaper or TV spots, TV channels, Radio Shows, Podcasts, YouTube videos.
Digital as in 1 one & 0 zero, or to turn transistor switches on and off, binary code, machine code, executable on CPU or GPU cores, RAM or Random Access Memory is a high-speed data buffer for the processing cores to store & retried blocks of data from briskly, to que new information into the data registers of the CPU system or GPU cores. RAM is the high-speed computer memory, like a human brain working memory, where the SSD or Hard Drive stores long term slower data, like human brain long term memory. CMOS or the way chips or integrated circuits or computer logic, means Complimentary Mixed Oxides, as in how they use photopolymer & images laser etched in highly polished nickel metal reticle masks to bounce deep UV light though mirror optics into layer patterns for the hundreds of layers needed to construct billions of transistors in systems of systems with miles of wire interconnections to the chip pin out so the data & power can flow into & out of the chip, from the power supply or battery, to the hot chip usually heat sink fan cooled, to the IO stream into & out of the chip & main or cache memory, to the rest of the computer for the screen keyboard human input graphic display interface, or touchscreen app click to launch or activate on your smartphone handheld computer camera.
