Over the last hundred years we went from mechanical computers to punch cards and then to digital vacuum tubes. Eventually in 1947 the first transistor was invented at Bell Labs. With the advent of transistors, digital computers took off and ever since compute scaled exponentially. Nowadays, the most of computer chips are digital, where computing is based on electrons moving in silicon. It was not always working this way and for sure it won’t be the case in the future. Here are 3 types of computing which may eventually replace our traditional computers.
I watched you most recent YouTube video the other day on this subject. I am glad you included the info on your Substack. I have been telling people about you channel and the substacks may be a better way to share to my computer nerd friends.
I’m stuck on the Dish Brain name. I wonder if that will be a schoolyard taunt in the future (or maybe Old Fashioned Brain will be the taunt by the cool kid dish brains).
There is research on large solar events coming which have not happened for thousand of years, and proton events. I am trying to put together a technology plan to share with people, and eventually develop products. I know some people in the silicon industry, but mainly tapped out and approaching retirement. I always see your videos around, and maybe you would like to help. I have my own proposals for optical, quantum and magnetic computing technologies, and a very cheap form of cheap custom programmable circuit with custom silicon like low energy design and high speed. Cheap fab and molecular level 3D printing. Of course these are virtually all unaffordable to do. But, the custom programmable circuit, is a reasonable low end start.
I am also interested in promoting the industry towards sustainable Solar/EMP/radiation/proton/magnetic field resistant technology. Like Tesla, it is not all about profit. I would like to see the industry succeed where any one player could fail. Of course, I want to do my own as well, and want to grow profit to eventually fund research to push past the 40Thz mark. There are a list of techniques I am looking at.
I was wondering if you would like to do videos on technologies and design techniques to handle extreme environments, like: extreme Solar/EMP/radiation/proton/magnetic field/heat resistant technology? I myself, am interested in magnetic quantum automata (MQA) as an easy low tech solution to start with (separately from the low cost programmable circuits technology, which is aimed at replacing many low end processors and parts, not just FPGA). I had wanted to design a new timing mechanism for MQA, to get up towards the maximum clock (1-4Thz), but it seems some researchers are since, now doing this. However, the old technology is over 20 years old, still has suitable speed for many purposes, consumed 1 Million times less power (near the maximum
theoretical efficiency) and is suitable for even slower more primitive low tech machines (These events have the ability to reset modern civilization, so is suitable for low end basic embedded purposes). I imagine they are prone to the hazards I mentioned, but I haven't found any details on this.
Anyway, thank you for your time Anastasia, and I hope to hear from you.

Niiiiiice! A great supplement to your YouTube Channel.

Hi Anastasi,
How do I contact you about some business?

Hi Anastasi,
I was wondering if you've done, or will do, a segment on full scale wafer computing like Cerebras has done?
Keep up the fantastic work!
Derek
Glad to see your research delivery in precise manner!
