Ask HN: What is your opinion on Quantum computing?
Do you believe it is viable, hyped nonsense, or some unknowable state between the two.
Cheers, =)

- Joel_Mckay 4y agoSabine Hossenfelder is hilarious, but not specialized in this area. Thanks for the link though =)
- Nomentatus 4y agoI think she has a pretty good background re superpositon, and take on it. Don't discount her.
- bediger4000 4y agoI'm of two minds about it
- PaulHoule 4y agoMostly hype. Not a substitute for general computing. Will probably find some specialized applications.
- incomingpain 4y agoIt's viable and can be used today for free. It hasn't been used for anything of productive value as far as I know though. It's definitely hyped just like any other emerging technology. We're definitely several generations away from any viable productive uses.
