Next-generation memory: Tungsten-based SOT-MRAM achieves nanosecond switching and low-power data storage This is something Intel has been working on for a long time and, if TSMC has a version, they will too. MRAM is the Memory-From-Hell, using almost no energy, faster than lightning, and cheap to make. Currently, memory is the only bottleneck left in electronics, simply because nobody's put money into developing faster memory quite like this. At the current rate of progress, all the issues consumers have with performance will vanish altogether within a decade, and the prices will start to come down dramatically.
Well I for one am very happy with this development. My memory has been slowing down the past couple of years. Faster memory will help me remember where I put my car keys sooner. I don't have much energy left, so kudos for saving me energy. Will I be able to climb K2 again? I would gladly purchase more memory, especially if it's cheap, but I'm afraid I don't have any more memory slots available. So anything that can speed up my aging synapses is welcome. Got Nanites anyone? I hear they're good at getting rid of the dust and cobwebs that accumulate in memory. And does anyone know how many nanites are in a nanosecond?
Tungsten-based SOFT-MiRiAM achieves nanosecond twitching and low-power lubricant storage. There, fixed it! Now it's a sex toy!
We all look forward to new memories of things that never actually happened. Some recent memories are better off banished to the Phantom Zone.
The issue is efficiency, without efficient memories, everything is deja vu all over again! I store my memories, where the sun never shines.
