Anyone a bit more savvy on hardware able to shed a bit more light on this?
The following line tickles my fancy...
> This is the only time in my entire programming life that I've debugged a problem caused by quantum mechanics.
- nategri 9y agoI've got a PhD in physics and I have no idea what he's talking about here. Seems like the mainboard layout had issues at higher frequencies which is easily a 100% classical electromagnetism problem. Inductance, impedance and what have you. As another commenter alluded, its only 'quantum' in the sense that all semiconductor behavior is. I think this is another case where 'quantum' is confused with 'apparently spooky.'
- heavenlyblue 9y agoNeither is it entirely clear to me, but this could be a pun related to him saying: > bits to get dropped... and the data lost... and the card corrupted. So as to say that's the Schrodinger's bug that causes several issues at the same time.
