Addendum: I now realize "better" in the headline could imply the quantum system was better than GPS. I interpreted it as meaning the overall reliability of navigation could be better rather than the specific technology, but in all fairness, both interpretations are reasonable. So we're letting you out of SR Jail, along with a Slashdot Subscription Gift Card.

They said "backup" NOT "better"

one year ago, Ada was ranked #24 â" but on this month's index it ranks #9.

Doesn't Tiobe have a small investigative team to find out why the grand shift? A shift that big with a legacy language is either a surprising trend or a boo boo, most likely the latter.

Or was it Yado?

The jamming of radio remote control has already lead to the use of fiber (they literally carry miles of fiber optic line that unspools as they fly...

Counter-measure: flying scissors. Which then results in flying rocks to knock them down, but flying rocks are stopped via flying paper that blinds them.
