Yesterday I finished crocheting edges on all the pin loom squares I made for Candy's lap robe - 64 in all. Laid them out so I could organize them for the next step - sewing them together.
Yikes, glad you got that thermos out of the house!
re: computer chips and their capacity: since starting stenography I've found it easier to imagine computer language/information as a type of shorthand. In stenography, you could type out "Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury" word by word, but that takes more time, and six strokes, one for each word. Instead, we would use a "brief", which is basically shorthand. A one-stroke abbreviation that MEANS, "Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury" without actually spelling it out. I think microchips can work like that to store information. The more "briefs" we have in computer language, the more compact the information is, and the more we can squeeze onto a tiny chip.

Idk if that helps with visualization, lol.

That helps with visualization but I can't say I "understand" it. :-)
