--- Quote from: EEVblog on June 10, 2020, 01:30:18 am ---I'm back to getting out of the lab for videos, going to interview someone about quantum computing! :-+ Technically their lab is still in "lockdown", so meeting somewhere else. --- End quote --- Offtopic: Cool. Maybe you can get a good, clear answer on how quantum computing is supposed to work. A good question would be: how to calculate 1+1 on a quantum computer. That is still unclear to me but I'll admit I did not dive very deep into quantum computing yet. |

Makes some 1080p content look really pretty poor. |

1080p from "other sources" is still good :-DD |

Quantum deals with probabilities. You'd probably (no pun intended) don't want to receive an answer in a form of bunch of variants along with probability numbers for each one for being a correct result. ::) |
