Mods should switch to the NYT headline ("Scientists Report Finding Reliable Way to Teleport Data"), which is appropriate. The current HN headline ("New Research in Faster-than-light Communication") is out to lunch.
Entanglement is not FTL communication.
Edit (having now skimmed the paper from Spittie http://arxiv.org/abs/1404.4369 http://arxiv.org/abs/1404.4369): Quantum teleportation isn't FTL communication either.
- duaneb 12y agoIt doesn't even teleport the data. It merely shares the same state—you can't move information through this shared state.
- ghshephard 12y agoNotice the headline doesn't say teleport information, but instead says teleport data - which is accurate. I agree, the Title on HN is a degraded version of the NYT version.
- duaneb 12y agoWhat is data without semantics? A RNG?
- dang 12y agoYes. Done.
