On this day in 1941, BellLabs Dennis Ritchie was born! As the co-creator of the UNIX OS & the creator of the C programming language, Ritchie is a legend in the Compsci & Programming worlds. Thank you for all your contributions.

Article from "The Electronics Engineer", August 1972. https://archive.org/details/bitsavers_TheElectroronicEngineerV31N08197208_70645262/page/10/mode/2up Head: Machining circuits with lasers Article: With this new laser machining process you can design electronic circuit patterns directly ino a ceramic substrate in one easy step. In the new process, a laser etches a circuit pattern into the substrate with the help of coded signals from a computer programmed to define the characteristics of the circuit pattern. Coated with a thin film of conductive metal, the substrates are pointed to a circular drum. As the drum rotates, the substrates are exposed to a laser beam. One line at a time, the laser scans the entire length of each substrate. At the end of one complete rotation of the drum, a reflecting mirror directs the laser to the next line. [Picture: an inscribed board showing traces] To inscribe the circuit pattern into the substrate, the focused laser beam vaporizes regions of the metal coating of each substrate. Whether an area is to be vaporized or left intact is determined by the coded signals in the computer. Laser machining requires fewer processing steps than masking-and-etching processes, and does not need a clean toom. Its depth of focus easily overcomes surface irregularities; the non-contact process avoids damaging the metal film; and since there are no photographic masks to wear out, the process may be repeated. More information on the experimental process is available from Bell Laboratories, 600 Mountain Ave., Murry Hill, N.J. 07974. Circle Reader Service #262 (Next headline: "Flat CRT debuts")

Visited old Bell Labs, Holmdel NJ, now a vast mixed-use space where TV's Severance was partly filmed. This Bell Labs for decades was highly significant in science innovation. A small pilgrimage! #science #BellLabs #NJ #Severance

Simon’s presentation unpacks the assumptions about gender, labor & technology that were built into #BellLabs’ Voder demonstration (seen here).

She suggests that the Voderettes’ experiences reveal how much the Fair’s utopian “World of Tomorrow” relied on the infrastructural labor of women. #Junto24
