Quantum computing reminds me of power from nuclear fusion: it's always 15 years away. I was awfully surprised when I read that D-Wave was already selling quantum computers. I'm glad that someone is willing to counter the hype. I find truth more interesting than fiction.

They too have gotten a lot of flak for their claims about their technology, although I haven't heard much from that end of town lately.
