Calm down dude. "Quantum computer" in the title refers specifically to the D-wave. Headlines leave out specifiers all the time.
ex.: "Man bites dog" doesn't mean "all of mankind bit a dog", it means "this man bit a dog".
- EpicEng 12y agoExcept no one, ever, would take "dog bites man" as "one dog bit all of mankind". The title is misleading and, at least one person (myself), took it to mean "quantum computing in general". P.S. why did you go with "man bites dog"?
- graedus 12y agoIt's a saying. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_bites_dog_(journalism) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_bites_dog_(journalism)
- EpicEng 12y agoAhhh, I'd never heard that before.
- baddox 12y agoI think you misread "quantum computer" as "quantum computers." The headline is very clearly talking about a single specific computer that is marketed as a "quantum computer."
- EpicEng 12y agoObviously it's not "very clear" as I was not the only one who took at as a more general statement. Just read through this thread.
