It is something that sounds impressive. If it worked it would probably be impressive. But I get the sense that a lot of people, just like with AI, really believe that this is a technology that is already working. Seriously, where is the money going if it's not working? IBM(the holocaust punch card people) are heavily invested in QC and receiving government grants for it.

Quantum computing is pretty much vaporware at this point, right? Kamala says we need to keep up our investments in QC and AI to beat China, but as far as I know, QC has some serious fundamental barriers that we are not able to overcome right now, which prevents the technology from even being used for the things people want it to be used for. So what are we competing for?

I was reading IBM's roadmap for QC development and it could honestly be the RDI Star Citizen promises with how out of sight and reliant they are on the technology improving at an unrealistic pace.

Maybe I'm cynical and have an outside perspective but quantum computing is starting to look like one of those dead ends that everyone looks back on and feels a little embarrassed by the whole thing.

CW: Animal Mistreatment

Watching the Jon Stewart /lmayo pete interview and you tell me if the moment where Jon Stewart brings up pete 's dog-killing service record and pete-eat first recoils and then tries to turn the movement into a bellyful chuckle by leaning back and going "Thanks a lot." through tightly-gritted teeth was a genuine human reaction.

Osama bin Laden himself couldn't wreck the vibes of this country more thoroughly than Joe Biden has in these last few months.

Liberals: Look at the hellhole we made of Egypt. You can't even operate a good CIA black site out of there anymore.

Liberals when asked where the Palestinian people should go after bombing their homes: Why can't they just go to Egypt?

Who are these entitled students to stomp all over the dream that school administrators of every level have been fighting toward for decades? Hold strong administration, your vision of a campus with no students, no teachers, only administrators. The perfect educational institution is just over the horizon!

Is it really called the "David's Sling" missile defense system? These people are so fucking gay for the bible. Just put your dick in it, you know you want to.

Yeah, I had no idea how far gone my dad was on Palestine. I tried talking with him today and it was nuts;

It's in their DNA to fight each other.

They've been at war for thousands of years. It's an ingrained religious war that can never end until Israel has control of Palestine.

Israel could solve this in a day if they wanted to. It's their restraint that is keeping Palestinians alive.

George W. Bush getting extraordinarily renditioned from the Sovereign State of Texas to see the inside of the Hague would be among the funniest outcomes of all this.

CW: Death

Cops in Spokane just executed someone for allegedly trying to shoplift from a walmart.

It's got all the hallmarks, "gun was found on the suspect," "both officers injured," "the suspect tried to tase me!"
