I like to build things. Glider pilot. Eyes bigger than bookshelf.

@starsandrobots (this is in the service of writing the best possible explanation for documentation. This one is hard!)
@starsandrobots it's been amusing as well to see which circuit simulators can and cannot model it functioning. Depends on analog effects so
@starsandrobots simulators that treat every transistor as being perfectly identical fail to be able to model the behavior of this one
@starsandrobots so a ton of simulators model relaxation oscillators as having no output & you have to kickstart 'em with a brief transient
@starsandrobots I guess the people writing them forgot to add in the photoelectric effect. :P
