But if you think men lay awake at night panicking about their lack of hair
People willing to undergo the pain of surgery to correct it do care about it.
or get passed over for jobs
Numerous studies have shown that men are adversely affected financially by having hair loss. The world is a cruel place.

but it was pointed out that society doesn't give a shit when a man has that condition
Yes, that is why there is absolutely no money in trying to grow hair on balding men.

Look at the mess Linus Pauling made of his legacy with his medical quackery he started trying to sell in his later days. Simply because you are smart and well respected in one field, doesn't mean you've got a fucking clue in another. Some people don't get that.
What do you have in mind, would you please elaborate?
I'm guessing he's talking about Pauling's belief in taking megadoses of vitamin C. Seems like all the experiments have shown that it doesn't really help. Looks like the body has a certain amount of vitamin C that it wants and it will just expel anything over that

Comment Re:Mean error time ... (Score 2) 21
Besides Qbits I'd like people to provide the mean error time (if this is the correct term) for any quantum computer story in the media, i.e. for how long they can keep it in the coherent state - it would be quite useful. I also remember there were some issues with decoherence and extracting useful data out of the system - but maybe someone verse in the topic would provide more details.
Right now nobody has one that is useful. The errors are too great
Time able to stay in a coherent state is a little misleading. Using ions means your quantum state is stable. The rub of it is that it is so stable that it takes a much longer time to do an operation. This causes it to have too much error by the time you operation is done
superconducting semiconductor qbits meanwhile are fast to perform operations. But at the same time they decohere quickly since it is so easy to perform operation on them
