By tuning the “Gaussian length” of the channel, the team achieved two‑dimensional super‑injection, which is an effectively limitless charge surge into the storage layer that bypasses the classical injection bottleneck.

Which episode of Star Trek is this from?

[–] [email protected] 41 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The one where there's a problem with the holodeck.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Do you have any idea how little that narrows it down?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (4 children)

It's the one where Barclay gets obsessed with his Holodeck program.

They're just copying the description of the turbo encabulator.

AI AI AI AI

Yawn

Wake me up if they figure out how to make this cheap enough to put in a normal person's server.

[–] [email protected] 122 points 1 week ago (4 children)

normal person’s server.

I’m pretty sure I speak for the majority of normal people, but we don’t have servers.

Ikr...Dude thinks we're restaurants or something.

Yeah, when you're a technology enthusiast, it's easy to forget that your average user doesn't have a home server - perhaps they just have a NAS or two.

(Kidding aside, I wish more people had NAS boxes. It's pretty disheartening to help someone find old media and they show a giant box of USB sticks and hard drives. In a good day. I do have a USB floppy drive and a DVD drive just in case.)

Hello fellow home labber! I have a home built xpenology box, proxmox server with a dozen vm’s, a hackentosh, and a workstation with 44 cores running linux. Oh, and a usb floppy drive. We are out here.

I also like long walks in Oblivion.

You... you don't? Surely there's some mistake, have you checked down the back of your cupboard? Sometimes they fall down there. Where else do you keep your internet?

Appologies, I'm tired and that made more sense in my head.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Well obviously the internet is kept in a box, and it’s wireless. The elders of the internet let me borrow it occasionally.

Link to the actual paper: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-025-08839-w

The repro and verification will take time. Months or even years. Don't trust anyone who says it's definitely real or definitely bunk. Time will tell.

Too bad the US can't import any of it.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 week ago (2 children)

they can if they pay 6382538% tariffs.

or was it 29403696%?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago

“These chips are 10,000 times faster, therefore we will increase our tariffs to 10,100%!”

Brother, have you heard of buses? Even INSIDE cpus/socs bus speeds are a limitation. Also i fucking hate how the first thing people mention now is how ai could benefit from a jump in computing power.

Edit: I havent dabbled that much in high speed stuff yet but isnt the picosecond range so fast that the capacitance of simple traces and connectors between chips influence the rising and falling edge of chips?

Clickbait article with some half truths. A discovery was made, it has little to do with Ai and real world applications will be much, MUCH more limited than what's being talked about here, and will also likely still take years to come out

Wow, finally graphene has been cracked. Exciting times for portable low-energy computing
