    Oh, finally a computer chip capable of running my code.

    And we’ll never hear anything about it ever again.

      I thought the same thing about soft, bend-able screens. But that became a fairly big thing.

      Just like with cancer vaccines, fusion and certain incurable viral vaccines

    The one advantage we have over the machines is that their chips are destructible. Can we stop this research?

      No worries. This chip we can just eat.

        We can start farming these computers to feed our ever growing population. We just need to build a simulation they can live in, so they don’t get stale.

      “almost” indestructable, i bet some sort of acid or lava could do the job if not a diamond laced sanding wheel.

    This is interesting in a “how far can you launch a pumpkin using an air canon” way, not a “you only need to cool this down to -40C to make it super conduct” way. It’s a fun experiment with nearly zero practical purpose outside of some very niche edge cases. Wearable computing is probably the only realistic one at the moment for a CPU that you can stretch a little and runs incredibly slow.

    Could they electroplate the material with nickle? Nickle Iron batteries are the best, but nickle needs a lot of surface area inside the battery.

    That’s kinda interesting. My first thought on seeing that image, though, was ‘ramen + autism = good!’

    By stretchy do they mean slightly less brittle and thus slightly more impact resistant? Not that this is a problem we need solving. The biggest issues we need to solve in technology are batter and glass
