@ceo_of_monoeye_dating @roboneko @icedquinn @rees Turing yourself gay
how did we have Turing machines before Turing
-
@roboneko @icedquinn @rees More than that - we *had* turing machines. Jacquard looms existed even in the 1800s, and this was sufficient for the field to make sense as an object of study.
-
@icedquinn @ceo_of_monoeye_dating @rees ehh at least we knew that stuff was fundamentally in the realm of possibility. that is, even with vacuum tube tech it was obvious that scaling up was possible in a fundamental sense the same way it's obvious that I can always build a larger computing cluster today
last time I checked no one was actually sure how far it's physically possible to scale quantum chips up. as in not even knowing what the fundamental physical limits might be. altho I haven't really been following along for the past couple of years. do we have any non-toy examples of these chips yet?
-
@roboneko @ceo_of_monoeye_dating @rees this is normal. most of computer science was figured out in the 60s and the microchip wouldn't become prevalent for another 20 years.

@rees oh yay, yet another innovative algorithm for which the hardware to run it doesn't actually exist :blobfoxsmirk: cc @ceo_of_monoeye_dating
nah that's actually really neat. the article (cc licensed) is attached

@ceo_of_monoeye_dating @roboneko @icedquinn @rees so it didn't.
wow people in the 1600s were totally rdr-core
-
@rdr @roboneko @icedquinn @rees The same way Fourier Analysis existed before Fourier.

@roboneko @ceo_of_monoeye_dating @icedquinn >what's the highest bit count physically realized so far?
1225
IBM has a roadmap for hitting 100,000 by 2033

> they're not generally useful for most things right now
yeah that's what I meant. I should have worded that more like, any idea what's the minimum (approximate) bit count to be useful (ie run at least one quantum algorithm in a manner applicable to some real world task that actually exists) and what's the highest bit count physically realized so far?
-
@roboneko @ceo_of_monoeye_dating @rees google and some other company have working quantum computers. i think i saw you could buy tiny ones but they're not generally useful for most things right now.
-
@rees @roboneko @icedquinn I have a roadmap for impregnating a cyclops by tomorrow.
Doesn't mean it's gonna happen. :smug1:
