You're getting closer. Digital computers work in individual, specific operations on a data representation. Analog computers are continuous on actual, raw data. The brain is continuous on raw data with some kind of storage. So, it seems to be a mostly analog system with possibly digital-like features embedded in it. The combo of analog and digital is called mixed-signal in ASIC design, though usually more digital than analog.
Brain seems like a mixed-signal system that's mostly analog.
" ships without a C compiler *"
A feature. Invents & continually improves compilation instead from safer languages to C to safe languages again. ;)
"Version upgrades correlated to earth's rotation around the sun."
That's funny and original.
