Maybe they will finally be able to determine how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.

That’s what the poll at the site is about. I tell my wife when we’re watching television that if it shows a new technology, we’ve had it for at least twenty years.

Both, since this imaginary computer is so capable.

I’m calling bull shit on this. No MIT, Apple is not going to give up security on iPhones because of this BS story. Let’s see it hot shots. We should just be able to apply more technology and fly through space at the speed of light but don’t hold your breath.

Cracking the iPhone security would require thousands of qbits.

Never say never...
Right now they are using laser beams to hold the qbit atoms. Set up a chipful of laser LEDs and the proper cryogenic equipment, and you have your qbit jig. Not everything has to be hand-fabricated.
Japan will probably have kilo-qbits before we do.
