Spintronics May Lead to Quantum Microchips

Posted by michael on from the where-she-stops-nobody-knows dept.

Rashan writes "A Scientific American article which waxes poetic about the possibility of microchips which use the "spin" of an electron to perform their functions." An excellent explanation of a complex subject.

    The "spin" of an electron? Oh, please. Next thing they're going to claim that they can harness the energy of a black hole to power the world's computers. If you want to impress me, prove that black holes or electrons actually exist. Otherwise I fail to see why this unsubstantiated garbage actually gets posted on Slashdot.

    Gawd, you are fucking lame.

    Seriously.
