Oh, forgot about the logic matrix programmer. I found two in a chest. I can use them to make more, right? I need to read up on Factorization. And you mean slag furnace, right? Why do I need mirrors and solar turbines and all that other stuff? Oh wait... I need a Crystallizer to get the logic matrix to get the logic matrix identifier to get the machine upgrade. And the Crystallizer requires Charge to run, which means solar turbines, which means mirrors.... okay, so I have a lot of infrastructure I need to set up first. Ugh. Hahaha
You just need one programmer. The programmer never vanishes when making the identifiers.
Start saving gold. You'll need it for making the identifier. Put gold ores in the industrial grinder (with mercury cells) to get triple gold output!
Enjoy the labor of gregtech. Hahaha
