I'd think an array of 1B spaghetti strands might pose a few difficulties above what sorting those numbers on computers would.
- adamnemecek 9y agoI can't tell if you are joking or not. You don't actually think there's 1B spaghetti right?
- rdtsc 9y agoNot actual pasta, no but there would have to be an analog equivalent. How do you see a practical implementation of this working that still preserves the O(n) property
- adamnemecek 9y agoThere's several way of achieving computation in this scheme. I'm not quite settled on which of these is the best. But why do you think that this property would be translated when going from electric to photonic?
