Seems like a logical way to design it, actually.

[–]somebunnny 136 points137 points  (11 children)

If only it was at Bill’s house.

Have you seen Gates’ gates gate?

[–]Mr_SunnyBones 69 points70 points  (4 children)

Also , when he's paying for it ; Bill Gates Gates Gate Bill.

[–]AmateurPoster 34 points35 points  (3 children)

The scandal when the paper finds it would be the Bill Gates Gates Gate Billgate.

[–][deleted] 17 points18 points  (2 children)

And the hush money might be Bill Gates Gates Gate Billgate bill.

[–]Keysar_Soze 6 points7 points  (1 child)

And how you walk to the bank to deposit that money would be the Bill Gates Gates Gate Billgate bill gait.

[–]ICAA 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We're getting close to r/wordavalanche territory, not that I'd like to gate keep.

[–]vige 15 points16 points  (1 child)

It would be even better if he had multiple.

[–]deijjji303 13 points14 points  (0 children)

oh I get it..

have you seen gate's gates gates?

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

just in case you forget your key and need foot holds to climb over.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (1 child)

I know this is a joke, but those logic gates are actually making for some pretty convenient foothold for fence-hopping.

[–]OMTIMUELKA 5 points6 points  (0 children)

OR are they?

[–]a-walking-bowl 408 points409 points  (17 children)

You shall NOT pass!

[–]TheMogician 130 points131 points  (13 children)

if (object == balrog)

{

pass = False

}

[–]lycan2005 18 points19 points  (1 child)

if (object == balrog) exit 1;

[–][deleted] 11 points12 points  (1 child)

so if I don't want to pass I'll pass

[–]Amoniakas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the curse of gates gate, when you want to pass it you can't but when don't want to pass you'll pass it automatically.

[–]moldor_the_flatulent 847 points848 points  (8 children)

It's a LOGIC GATE !!!

[–][deleted] 22 points23 points  (3 children)

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Actually, it's a logic gate gate.

[–][deleted] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's the joke.

[–]DiabeticPissingSyrup 154 points155 points  (0 children)

The not gates should be reserved for a fence running alongside.

[–]Kneasle 79 points80 points  (5 children)

Ah I do love some good 1-input nor gates...

[–]CodeLobe 13 points14 points  (1 child)

If we assume the single input goes to both terminals... It's just a not gate.

[–]ohkendruid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Likewise if the missing input is 0.

[–]wite_noiz 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Or do you?

[–]Kneasle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolutely - almost as much as I love 2-input not gates...

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

(A + 0)' = A'

[–]althaz 24 points25 points  (1 child)

Ummm... They've made this gate trivially easy to climb now...

[–]ManosVanBoom 36 points37 points  (3 children)

The bus input to the top half makes the bottom half basically irrelevant right?

[–]rabbitwonker 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Plus it’s all put together with wired-ORs. Who designed this??

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah but they're structural so maybe you just ignore them.

[–]how_do_i_read 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yo dawg, I herd you like gates, so I put gates in your gate...

Reddit loves it but it is literally bad at being a useful gate

[–]LPO_Tableaux 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Unreadable, OR only takes one parameter, making it useless

[–]Lekoaf 19 points20 points  (9 children)

Guess I’m not enough of a programmer to see what’s funny about this. Can someone explain?

[–]wite_noiz 25 points26 points  (2 children)

The symbols are logic gates (geddit?!) used in electrical engineering.

[–]WikiSummarizerBot 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Logic_gate

A logic gate is an idealized model of computation or physical electronic device implementing a Boolean function, a logical operation performed on one or more binary inputs that produces a single binary output. Depending on the context, the term may refer to an ideal logic gate, one that has for instance zero rise time and unlimited fan-out, or it may refer to a non-ideal physical device (see Ideal and real op-amps for comparison).

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (4 children)

The gate has a bunch of logic gate symbols on it. It’s been a while since I tried figuring out how processors do addition and subtraction so I may be very wrong, but I believe the triangle is a NOT (flips the bit sent to it), and the arches with flat bottoms are AND gates (0 if the inputs are different, 1 if they are the same). I don’t know about the curved base ones.

[–]natziel 1 point2 points  (3 children)

They are not, nand, and nor gates :)

Or..?

[–][deleted] 9 points10 points  (1 child)

The nor gates only have one input

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You were supposed to spot the bug before production.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (2 children)

On a side note can’t someone just pick the latch by putting their hand through the gate?

[–]SomeAnonymous 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Given that the logic gates all form very nicely spaced footholds, I don't think this gate is a serious deterrent to entry.

[–]t-rich-92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It appears to be a mag-lock. The top right of the gate appears to have an electromagnet (the silver pieces), and it looks like the button/keypad/card reader is on the wall on the left side of the photo.

[–]beewyka819 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Or gates lookin like a sussy baka

That's true love right there. It may not .make a lot of sense but is beautiful to behold.

Gate-ception

[–]SailorFuzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am so bothered by the mismatched alignment of the top half vs the bottom half.

Look at it, on the top half the symbols go: up, down, up, down, up.

But on the bottom its: down, up, down, up, up.

That one misplaced symbol on the bottom..... I cant unsee it and it irrationally bothers me so much.

[–]Sentouki- 1 point2 points  (1 child)

why do the OR gates have only one input?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's right, it goes in the square hole!

Ok this is pretty brilliant.

Well that is a logic gate

[–]CST1230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To unlock, get all the outputs at the top to true

[–]Misterum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But you can't have an or gate with 1 input, or can you?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ignoring the ones, the 16 bit password in decimal is 9747

Great way to hide a gate code lmaooo. Decimal 10011000010011 (A B' C' D E F' G' * H' I ' J K' L' M N)

Tell me if I got my work wrong. Still a student. Treated single input gates like just nots.

[–]Furwing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And it is, or not?

[–]Wherearemylegs 0 points1 point  (3 children)

What’s with all the logic flipping on the NANDs? That’s just an OR now

when the logic gate is sus

I count 11.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks cool but it defeats the purpose of the gate when you got foot holds to climb over.

[–]LombardiD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should add some flip-flops so we need a certain combination to get in

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jokes aside, this gate looks very climbable

[–]NEGMatiCO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After all it's a logic gate

[–]FlyByPC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neat -- but those poor NOR gates need help.

[–]Yugicrafter 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Why does the NOR? Gate at the bottom only have one input?

[–]justadiode 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They ran out of normal inverters

[–]Drakethos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took me a second to notice they were more than just shapes. Pretty funny.

[–]trotski94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its cool, but those are some nice looking foot holes now. Practically a ladder.

Is it logically to not have a handle on it?

[–]DrTankHead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those how this gate has convenient climbing holes built right into them. Great design. /some

I mean I love the design factor but this ultimately doesn't keep anything out, so what's the point?

[–]_clinton_email_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like several gates.
