Following up on an earlier thread which started as a discussion on Apple's new language "Swift" and (d)evolved into a discussion about energy efficiency of computers, I came across this announcement of a new type of computer architecture invented by HP: "The Machine".

If they could shrink it down to a mobile phone, your phone might last 2-3 months on a single charge. -- Steven -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
