Quantum Computing Is Going Commercial With the Potential to Disrupt Everything
Consider three hair-pulling problems: 1 percent of the world’s energy is used every year just to produce fertilizer; solar panels aren’t powerful enough to provide all the power for most homes; investing in stocks often feels like a game of Russian roulette.Those seemingly disparate issues can be solved by the same tool, according to some scientists: quantum computing. Quantum computers use superconducting particles to perform tasks and have long been seen as a luxury for the top academic echelon—far removed from the common individual. But that’s quickly changing.IBM had been dabbling with commercial possibilities when last year it released Quantum Experience, a cloud-based quantum computing service researchers could use to run experiments without having to buy a quantum system. In early March, IBM took that program further and announced IBM Q, the first cloud quantum computing system for commercial use. Companies will be able to buy time on IBM’s quantum computers in New York state, though IBM has not set a release date or price, and it is expected to be financially prohibitive for smaller companies at first.Trending: U.S. Warships Rerouted Toward Korean Peninsula to 'Maintain Readiness'Jarrod McClean, a computing sciences fellow at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, says the announcement is exciting because quantum computing wasn’t expected to hit commercial markets for decades. Last year, some experts estimated commercial experimentation could be five to 40 years away, yet here we are, and the potential applications could disrupt the way pharmaceutical companies make medicine, the way logistics companies schedule trains and the way hedge fund managers gain an edge in the stock market. “We’re seeing more application areas start to develop all the time, now that people are looking at quantum,” McClean says.Quantum computing is as different from traditional computing as an abacus is from a MacBook. “Classical computing was [invented] in the 1940s. This is like [that creation], but even beyond it,” says Scott Crowder, IBM Systems vice president and chief technology officer of quantum computing, technical strategy and transformation. “Take everything you know about how a class of computers works and forget it.”
Besting supercomputers
Quantum computers are made up of parts called qubits, also known as quantum bits. On some problems, they leverage the strange physics of quantum mechanics to work faster than chips on a traditional computer. (Just as a plane cannot exactly compare to a race car, a classical computer will still be able to do some things better than quantum, and vice versa. They’re just different.)Explaining how qubits work requires jumping into quantum mechanics, which doesn’t follow the same rules of physics we’re used to in our everyday lives. Quantum entanglement and quantum superposition are particularly important; they defy common sense but take place only in environments that are incredibly tiny.

RiseUp is in Seattle, Tor is in Seattle, and both are CIA/Mossad
properties. I wonder what's going on in Seattle ?
Whilst Soros and the CIA have done a very admirable job of keeping the
sheeple focused on one big problem (government mandated and financially
assisted (with stolen "tax" dollars refugee (from Western wars)
immigration (some would call it Jihad)),
the true problem is the West itself - a seemingly unstoppable neocon
military empire smashing down the gates of the world's nations for its
own financial and hegemonic control interests.
"We", as in "citizens of 'the West'" have become the barbarians at the
gates of history.
We trample human rights, human dignity and anything resembling any cause
higher than money, murder and control.
Our young "men" almost universally pick up a gun, jump on a plane, and
obey every order to "shoot that brown person" in any foreign land
they're dumped in.
The rest of the sheeple don't rebel in any meaningful way.
Trump surrounded himself with (((neocon rubes))) from the "leading
financial and military powerhouses" and is now very close to completely
backtracking on the last of his election promises (no, not the almost
irrelevant ones like building a wall).

The recent appearance in some Western media sources of insults, jokes,
and unfounded accusations in response to tragedies affecting the Russian
people is shocking in its coarseness and barbarity, disturbing in its
lack of compassion for fellow human beings, and irresponsible in its
professional ethics.
** Reuters: Russia, Iran Joint Command Center Will 'Respond With Force'
If US Strikes Syria Again

DEVELOPING A joint command center used by Russia, Iran and allied forces
has issued a statement saying that red lines have been crossed in Syria
and that there will be retaliation if they are crossed again. While
multiple sources report this, we think it's unlikely the Russians
formally signed off on this statement. Independent: Russia and Iran
have warned the US they will "respond with force" if their own "red
lines" are crossed in Syria.

According to independent journalist Mike Cernovich, National Security
Advisor H. R. McMaster is trying to get Trump to sign off on a plan that
would put 150,000 US troops on the ground in Syria. According to
Cernovich:

UPDATE: According to Cernovich, US boots on the ground wouldn't be for
"safe zones" — Trump's National Security Advisor wants "full-scale war".
The Pentagon has drawn up plans for more boots on the ground in Syria by
June or sooner, according to independent journalist Mike Cernovich. US
Special Forces are already operating in northern Syria, and "hundreds"
of US marines have been deployed near Raqqa to assist with the assault
on ISIS' capital.

CIAniggers got you down ?
It's TempleOS for you:
templeos.orgwikipedia.org/wiki/TempleOS
- -
TempleOS is a free, public domain, open source, x86_64,
non-preemptive multi-tasking, multi-cored, ring-0-only,
single-address-map (identity-mapped), non-networked, PC operating
system.""
TempleOS is simpler than Linux and you can have hours of fun tinkering
because all memory and ports are accessible. Memory is
identity-mapped at all times, so you can modify any task's memory from
any other task. You can access all disk blocks, too. I had a blast
using a C64 disk block editor to modify directories to un-delete
files, when I was a kid. Maybe, you want to play with a raw-block
database, or make your own file system?""
