PS: "Locality" vs "Non-locality" are elementary ideas in quantum mechanics, if you aren't aware of their basic meaning then why should anyone waste their time trying to explain them to you. Do you think the world owes you answers just because you're too lazy to look them up yourself? In the most basic terms these ideas aren't even difficult to understand-- phenomenon that are unexplained by, that contradict classical physics.

For example, one branch of Quantum Computing is projected to accommodate instant network communication across any distances, that is, a network connection to Mars could have a 10ms ping as the connection would rely on entanglement and not radio waves.

"non-locality" would be the only thing that would make quantum computing a novel process. Otherwise, it's sort-of like an electric car, using new tech to solve old problems.

If you didn't know, building a "quantum computer" is about more than ramping up the GHz and shrinking die space.

No one would take him seriously unless he's an arrogant moron? Do you take arrogant morons seriously, is "seriously" how arrogant morons should be taken? Wait, silly question, obviously you take them VERY seriously. lmao.

Classic example of an idiot confusing causation with correlation.

So what you're saying is the races shouldn't mix.

Logic fail.

Because there aren't any programs like that already. (sarcasm) My college tuition was free because my single working mother and I lived below the poverty level (I know, so much white privilege). I noticed the state isn't discriminating (the way liberals mind) either, there are more non-whites getting on the Pell-Grant than whites.

Yeah, sure, *nothing* has ever been done and all white people were born with silver spoons.

I remember something similar, except there weren't any girls in 1301. During the course of the whole program I remember one girl in one of the intermediate classes. I tried fraternizing with her once, but she wasn't having it so I just left her alone, like she wanted. Anyway that's besides the point, should the CS program at my college have only accepted 1 male student so they could keep an equal male-female ratio? Seems silly to me.

I grew up on video games. My first system was an Atari 2600, then a NES, then an SNES. I also had a 386 DX 16 with PC Geos on it. Wolfenstein 3d on a PC without a sound-card was the first PC game I ever played. I didn't find it very entertaining, the SNES, I thought, was superior.

I had recently made friends with some kids down the street. There were 6 of them living in one house, most of them older than me, but the younger ones about the same age. Anyway, they were also gamers, but they were PC gamers. They hada 486 DX2 66mhz with 4mb ram and a sound card. They showed me a game called Doom. HOLY SHIT I was blown away. Doom was leaps and bounds ahead of anything else I had ever played, I begged my mom to buy me a PC.

This was all before the Internet "happened". My first PC was a Pentium 75 with 5 gigs of ram, soundblaster, and 1gb hard drive. Around the time Windows 95 came out I signed up with a local dial-up ISP. I discovered the the World Wide Web. There was a cli app that would let you change the graphics and sound data in Doom's WAD files. I had recently bought a computer scanner, and I spent about a month taking pictures of my family, working on bloody death animations, and calling them into my room to voice various sounds that I would edit and use in my version of the game, "Family Doom".

I guess that was my first go at "hacking." Later I got a job at that same ISP that I had origially signed up with. There I learned the basics of TCP/IP networking, Linux, and the Internet. It was amazing having access to a T1 back in the days before broadband. I guess I wasn't a hacker, but I had a solid "script kiddie" status.I was also earning a little bit of money, being 15 and not having any bills, I used the money to start building my own rig from parts. Overclocking became a hobby of mine, I got my A+ certification a couple years later.

I didn't start coding until my late teen/early 20s. I had tons of experience editing config files, or working on the command line, but I hadn't a clue about programming. I knew Doom and Quake were written in a language called C, so I downloaded Visual Studio Express 2003 and looked up the tutorials on cprogramming.com . After going through those tutorials I decided to enroll in my local college under the Computer Science program.

The most surprising non-academic thing I learned was that most of my professors were clueless when it came to computer literacy. They could write C or Java code in their sleep, but they were oblivious to basic computing. One professor couldn't even navigate a FAT/NTFS filesytem, a C drive? What's that? That's when I knew that the kind of education I had was different. I'm not some book-learned CS grad, although I do appreciate academics, I was and am a hacker first.

I guess OSX is just a bunch of recorded keypressess too. Leave it to a liberal to present the most influential document of our time as scratches on a piece of paper.

Not even sure if "liberal" even fits you, they at least seem to place value on penmanship and the written word. I guess you never went to college, or if you did the English dept failed you. Look up "Reduction Fallacy", it's the exact same fallacy those "gun nutters" use when they say "guns don't kill people...."

I used to think this was flamebait, but they don't. Even when the doctor tells them "it's a girl/boy" they think "oh well maybe, she/he's not old enough to decide."

It's proof that Jesus has entered our universe and is coming to Earth to rapture his people. Unless you can prove this isn't true, to the same level as say, the fundamental theorem of Calculus, then it has to be true. Hallelujah praise Jesus.

It's funny how these Jesus freaks go from "can't prove a negative" to "my sky father will send you to Hades! Idiot!"

To these people, lack of evidence to the contrary is not only proof that their god exists, but also that he thinks and judges people exactly the same way that they do. But then there isn't enough evidence to support natural selection. This is why Christians are famous for holding double standards, and arguing from positions completely at odds with each-other.

So, because nobody has proven God doesn't exist, they conclude that he hates gays, Muslims, non-believers, wants you to vote Republican, etc etc etc... Perhaps that isn't the mental process of every christian, but judging by the propaganda I see coming from their temples and leaders, many if not most of them. Being based on their actual history and evidence you can actually observe, I doubt they will agree that to be true either.

Please excuse the misplaced "is" before "than a man".

Two plus two equals four isn't a fact, numbers themselves are defined by theories. It's funny how believers always take any rational discussion of religion into a game of semantics, an argument about what "reality" is or if what we perceive and observe really is reality. All you can do is kick a rock and say "I refute it thus." Why it's harder to believe "in" a rock right in front of you that you can see feel and touch is than a man walking on water, or resurrecting week-long dead people, or returning to life after being disemboweled, I can't say.
