I donâ(TM)t think you actually understand the way quantum computing works and how the calculations per second expand with then number of qubits. A 30 qubit computer has the same processing power as a traditional cpu computer that is running at approx 10 Teraflops. With each added logical qubit, the processing power increases exponentially (2^N). Yes, there are problems such as useful life expectancy of the qubit, and that means needing to perform statistical analysis of the results. However, something like (2^N)/1000 will still very quickly outpace performance of traditional computing. With just 10 additional qubits, you have enough to run that statistical analysis, so it needs 40 qubits for the statistical analysis. This Helios system, this is 48 logical qubits, which is roughly 2,800 tflops of calculating power (or ~2.8 pflops). Just 1000 of these systems would have the processing power of the current fastest supercomputer cluster in the world as of June 2026. Do you know how many more logical qubits are needed to reach that level in a single quantum computer as opposed to a cluster? 58. That is way, way, way less than the 1000s to millions you are implying.

You do realize this very same company announced a deal with Oracle to get these very computers into their cloud data centers to sell time on them to customers within 2027 (i.e. by next year), right? That certainly doesnâ(TM)t sound like more of the same news we have had, but the beginnings of the first ones available for public use outside of lab settingsâ¦.

I think it is also more important to mention who ACTUALLY wiped the phone. Samuel wasn't the one who entered the code that wiped it, the customs/board patrol agent + FBI were the ones in possession of the phone and the ones who entered the code from everything I have read. If they had felt so confident in the fact there was evidence in there in the first place, the data would have been first cloned with a forensic data scientist and then that cloned data used to do any searches, keeping the original intact and exactly as taken so anything could hold up in a court of law...

Well wtf does he mean by speedtest then? If he's doing it from his phone or wifi connected laptop, then it's going to reflect the speed of his wifi. If he's doing it from his router, and complaining that the speedtest is wrong because his wifi is slower than his router uplink, I'd say that's a statement only a doofus would make.

"Now I'm currently using fiber at the speed fast than my wifi router, which makes my speedtest always wrong."

oh please expand on this - this is gunna be hilarious

Prosecuting arsonists doesn't unwind time, bro.

And that is the entire problem with all the LLVM based systems. The moment any bad data is used in training the network, the bad data is in there forever and can not be "forgotten", simply suppressed via specific ruleset.

Well, it falls to a jurisdiction in which there is a high chance of selective regulatory oversight/enforcement, given the conflict of interest with Trump's family vested interest in prediction markets.

"I immediately notice an issue."

Wow they must really regret not working with a person as smart as you. (Honestly, slashdot is chock full of wannabes these days)

I hope we NEVER get there. The last thing you want to do is let automated systems automate their own solutions that are automatically pushed out without any human overview and testing. You will suddenly wake up one day to "your" system farming crypto tokens for some random wallet somewhere....

"Hell yeah, a credit card!" - people I don't get

These platforms are starting to let people bet on wildfire activity. What a fun way of incentivizing arsonists.

Yep, because mine are all segregated onto their own VLAN (well, more specifically 1 of either 2 VLANs depending on if an internet connection is even needed or not to control the devices). I then have my pFsense edge router denying access to many things using pfSense-ng (which is sort of like pihole, but on steroids as it not only works on the DNS lookup info, but also applies active firewall rules to block the outgoing and incoming traffic from both the DNS names but also the IP's so that a piece of software can't bypass a pihole like device by simply coding in IP addresses)...

Which is one of the reasons why I use pFsense as my edge router on my home network and have setup DD-WRT on my parents and sister's network.

You're conflating your emotions with facts, in a field you very likely know very little about.
