The standard approach to resolving a major open question about the role of memory in computation is most likely a dead end.

In 2014 , researchers discovered that adding full storage space can in principle make computers more powerful.

But their work didn’t rule out the possibility of bizarre algorithms that could somehow use the same piece of memory for calculations and calculations simultaneously.

Using an approach called catalytic computing, Harry Buhrman and Michal Koucký showed that even full memory could theoretically aid computation.

The breakthrough came months later , when Buehrman and Cleve at the University of Waterloo showed that if you tweak bits in just the right way, you really can get extra computational oomph out of a full memory.

Researchers had started studying tree evaluation because it seemed as if it might finally provide an example of a problem in P that’s not in L.

Many researchers now suspect that tree evaluation is in L after all.

Complexity theorists may need a different approach to the P versus L problem.

The United States ’ ambitions to create its own lithium supply chain rest to a large extent on a remote desert in northern Nevada .

The Democratic Republic of the Congo , or DRC, dominates world production of cobalt, another critical ingredient of lithium-ion batteries.

The other countries with known deposits, like Russia and Canada , only have enough proven supply to provide one year of world cobalt production at current rates.

Well over half of global production is concentrated in China , which has a stranglehold over the rare earth supply chain.

China controls 90 percent of the world’s rare earth refining capacity, two-thirds of its lithium and cobalt refining capacity.

In order to become component parts for EV batteries and wind turbines, these metals must be refined down to purer substances, often through energy intensive smelting processes.
