My gut says that the "5000+ qubit" systems are probably more like dressed up neural network optimized silicon with fancy expensive cryogenics systems for an air of legitimacy.

I looked into it a bit deeper after reading some of the articles linked above. AWS offers three different brands of quantum computers as instances you can rent. Two of them are 2-qubit systems max. The D-wave systems claim to be "5000+ qubit", but that's nonsense or marketing half-truths. I'm not sure why, but I'm sure.

These are offered to "scientists", I don't think there's very much real world application for them at this point. If they're using quantum computing in ML, it's only to do some of the linear regression math, and probably isn't all that interesting compared to the massive tensorcore farms that they're using for production ML.

it's only fair that everyone make some small sacrifices so that clubbers don't have to worry about losing their ID

I think it would be funny to build a browser extension which makes a whole parallel twitter on top of twitter, by encoding your posts into the noise of a jpeg via steganography. Everyone on twitter sees random cat memes or whatever image you want it to show, and whatever message you want it to show, and with the browser extension (or alternate website) you see the decoded posts

no they want all the resources and all the land to build their techno-future, they're not going to 'live and let live'

I think I got this from another post on here but man it's really good, showing how obvious it is that the virus was crafted out of HIV and spare parts that moderna had lying around

the pentagon damage was limited to one particular room where they had the accounting for a bunch of trillions of dollars that they "misplaced"

are you not pissed that your tax dollars were used to buy eleven doses per citizen at $19.50/dose?

if it doesn't run over pedestrians, then it's trivially easy to stop and steal. Autonomous trucking is a pipe dream.
