#2Poor IBM.
It's as if we had only one efficient oil well for the whole world. It's getting a bit hot.

#3i don't believe in physical limits for computation since beginning of 90ties when i read about 50MHz being the fundamental impossible to surpass limit and few years later i had DX4-133 running at home. Saying that with high appreciation for the grit of the people in the industry who has taken us that far and going to take even farther.

there are limits, we're just not close to them.

yeah i think the problem here is popular press writing

#6That "1nm" is complete marketing bullshit, like it always was, for a decade or two.
Silicon lattice step is ~0.5nm, so 1nm is at most 3 atoms. Current technology is definitely not there yet however we're getting closer. Very interested what marketing department will say after 1nm became old news

In a LSD trip someone could wonder if our simulation has no idea what the next evolutionary step is.
Similar how music did not change much in the last 20 years

some of those limits are applicable to black holes only in the state of thermodynamic equilibrium. The miniature unstable black holes/singularities produced using quark-gluon lithography may be not a subject to those limits, and miniature wormhole loops through 4th dimension may prove to be an effective workaround for storage limits, etc.

If you have some good points to disprove Heisenberg's rule then it's worth publishing a paper.
If you are talking about quark litography (which does not physically make any sense as af as I can tell), then you are still agreeing with the parent comment, there are limits but we still have a long way.

Do you remember what magazine that was in?
It's hard to imagine anyone thinking 50MHz was a fundamental limit to circuit design, or computers, in the 90s. I am very curious what their argument was.
The Cray-1 ran 80MHz in the 70s. http://www.openloop.com/education/classes/sjsu_engr/engr_com...
FM is faster than that and it's been around a long time.
