Brain-Inspired 'Memcomputer' Constructed

New submitter DorkFest writes: "Inspired by the human brain, UC San Diego scientists have constructed a new kind of computer that stores information and processes it in the same place. This prototype 'memcomputer' solves a problem involving a large dataset more quickly than conventional computers, while using far less energy. ... Such memcomputers could equal or surpass the potential of quantum computers, they say, but because they don't rely on exotic quantum effects are far more easily constructed." The team, led by UC San Diego physicist Massimiliano Di Ventra published their results in the journal Science Advances.

It must be so sad to be so unintelligent and unimaginative that the only thing you can come up to say during a discussion is to nitpick about grammar and spelling. I feel so sorry for your pathetically pedantic ass.
