This Is What It Looks Like To Have A World-Class Memory

You probably juggle a phone number or two around in that skull of yours just out of necessity, but there are memorisation experts out there who would put you to shame. At this year’s World Memory Championships, champion Johannes Mallow memorised a 2245-digit number and the order of 1144 playing cards each in just an hour.

Insane Blasts Of Heat Could Make Flash Memory Live Longer Than Ever

Flash memory is fast, it’s stable, but it’s not without its flaws. It has a tendency to wear out after too many write-erase cycles, for example. Now there’s a way to deal with that problem, and it could lead to self-healing NAND flash memory that could last for much, much longer than the stuff we have now.

Spintronic Breakthrough Promises Better Flash Memory

Scientists have long spoken about the possibility of using the natural spin of electrons as digital storage — but it’s never been a reality because of the transient nature of the effect. Now, though, IBM researchers have found a way to keep the effect alive long enough for it to actually be useful.
