Using an EEPROM to replace combinational logic
Why people recommend it
Ben Eater programs a parallel EEPROM by hand and uses it as a lookup table to drive a seven-segment display in place of discrete logic.
Watch for: the RC write pulse circuit around 14 minutes
In their words
To make sure I didn't mess anything else up, I can run my computer in super slow mode and manually push a button of the kind that Ben Eater did his first manual EEPROM programmer.

In this video from Ben Eater, he uses an RC circuit to create a push-button "write-pulse" generator for his EEPROM (discussed around the 14 minute mark) that ensures the write pulse fits within the timing requirements from the datasheet.
