My late wife did undergraduate research in photosystem II where there was quantum effects back in 2002. She did her PhD thesis on proton coupled electron transfer (PCET) in soybean lipoxogenase, then had a long career developing models for Fortran code that did quantum simulation of proteins (she was behind Tagdock in Amber MD). This is nothing new; several biological systems have quantum effects that are central to their mechanism.

Oh, CCP membership is under 100 million. It's in the high 90's. Decidedly less than 9% of the 1.41 billion people in China.
And what is wrong with that?

In European countries, there are less than 1% of the people in any party. Why would they?

Wikipedia, the BBC, and a couple of other news outlets are where I was able to find that the CCP is invite only.
That is wrong, you did not even google.

Backends running JS/TS are usually running on super fast JS VMs.

From point of view of developer teams, it makes perfectly sense to have on both sides the same languages.

The people "hating" it and badmouthing it, are usually 30 years out of the loop how much ECMA Script has evolved - and are not working with any of the languages involved anyway.

Our previous conversation was "closed".
So some answer to your CPC misconception ... which is off topic here.

a) 100 million of a bit more than a billion party members is a lot. It is around 10%.
b) in Germany not even 1 out of 80 is a member of a party. That is roughly 1%
c) in the US: parties have no real members
d) membership in the CPC is not "invite only" - you have to apply and do party work, like preparation of elections and counting of votes or other stuff, to be finally accepted

No idea where you get your information from.

I suggest to start reading the wikipedia articles ....

There was a player in EVE Online, who bulled his "guild mates" into helping him to get stuff he needed to build a super carrier. I think he got actually the first one of that type in game - not sure about that.

He sunk several 10k USD into it, in in-game currency to get what he wanted. As he was a general dickhead, when he made one of his first flights, perhaps even the first flight, he got "kicked from guild".

The whole universe was invited to kill him. I think the server crashed when 10k players where in the same system and nuked his nice new toy.
