the quantum hype bandwagon is rolling out

the VCs are pushing the quantum hype again. this is an FT editorial

(archive.is isn't working for me, anyone wanna post an archive link)

note lack of citation of actual results, a ton of handwaving about big companies, repeated "could," and the earliest date postulated is 2033

many of the important requirements for a VC bubble party

the tech press has been loaded with this shit, just a fuckin flood of it, all this nonspecific and glossing over the lack of mere existing tech in the present day

note that this has nothing to do with actual quantum computing, this is purely how to set up the tech macguffin for a bubble party

pretty good for a thing that is real - but doesn't exist as a technology yet or any time soon

bsky:

Tired: cloud computing

Wired: could computing
