It’s worth noting that the laser was much the same way. It was described early on as a solution in search of a problem, and lasers have had an incredible impact on technology.
Great ! …and you run this code on a quantum computer ? … and it did indeed save time (over classical) ? … and you and your group published a paper highlighting this ?
Only I’m not sure of any paper published ever doing that and I seek to find one that do this without ambiguity since many years now. Of course, it is not my domain and I may be completely mistaken.
Please forgive my tone and arrogance - - I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings - - but it’s been promised for a long time now and I’m growing impatient and skeptical.
I was thinking about this and it seems to me that in terms of composing a single message online, it probably takes more energy to be a cunt and apologize than it does to just be nice.
Sometimes it goes like this : here I was answering to someone who was convinced to be absolutely right and I’m still quite believing the opposite.
I don’t know how to put things straight in these occasions without using some quite radical speech and this may look like being a cunt.
You may be right : I’m putting too much energy in this thread, especially considering all the downvotes. But I did put much much more energy during many years reading useless scientific article on this topic, leading to nowhere and I’m hoping someone could at last prove this to be useful.
R&D (research end developpement) is essential, yet, most research projects leads to dead ends.
I say we should continue R&D in this quantum computing but, in the meantime, it is useless.
“Now we hope to understand in better detail how these works and what to do with them”

So they are useless …
Right ?
They’re not for running games faster, but they could potentially find two large prime factors pretty fast.
Useless today, unknown tomorrow.
I have personally written code for quantum computers to save time due to algorithmic complexity; I was a college student at the time.
So if their usefulness is stuck in the unknowable future then I’m a time traveler.

Thanks for your time, take care.

Almost like development is slow, yet not stagnant.
