Glad to see this, she's fair. Analog computers have some narrow use cases, and that's what quantum computers are. A blast from the past, in a way. Since I gave up my high school slide rule for a handheld calculator in University, I haven't had much interest in analog computers.
The whole hype reminds me of the hype about holographic memory long ago. I got to give a lecture at an International Conference at Harvard disproving that particular hype (even though I was just a grad student) just before my career ended: A Professor at the University of Calgary drugged me against my knowledge for months with LSD (ramping up), raped me, and then killed my academic career with a whole lot more LSD to make it very hard for me to figure out what happened or to do anything about it. There was much more of that in that time then history records.
