It is not a silly question at all, a companion book with working and answers makes perfect sense. Universities and academic institutions who create things like this were often very wary as they often reuse these questions in classes and alt

That is a good point. I guess they are WoW esque but don't have the in app chat in the same way, and I am not in that community. Most of my Japanese friends are arcade types and I would go and play driving games with them like Initial

Oh I always preferred den den on the few occasions I have visited Osaka. I find it better value and less glossy. Saying this I did used to love a used Thinkpad shop around the back of Sofmap in Akiba. Very good value. Captain PC or somethin

Phone games seem to have been popular for a good decade. I find the extravagant advertistments in stations like Shinjuku are always rather impressive but I never quite get into any of those games like Genshin and Honkai.

I have never found Japan the home of gaming pc's anyway. It isn't quite like Seoul in that respect. I have shopped in Akibahara frequently in the last decade and noticed some PC gaming exclusive shops pop up and also go, including

I love the idea. Even for so called mundane buildings, it would be great to have wayback machine esque regular backups of models of buildings.

Limited hardware is exactly why it is usable. Many e-ink devices exist now so limiting factors such as refresh rates etc, need to be considered when developing apps for android etc nowadays.

Thanks for this! Some of these are really interesting. The Dream Factory was a great book this year on Shakespeare.

Oh no, that isn't factually correct. We have the theory. The theory is viable and provable and shown in both of the major branches of quantum computing, qubit and photonic. The key issue as I say is each has multiple 'architecture

I'm not going to pretend that I am that knowledgeable on classic computing history from that time period. I was primarily going off the fact the semi conductor was built in the late 40's, and I would say we have the quantum versio

There is private sector adoption and planning now of specific single purpose focused quantum devices in military and security settings. They work and exist although I do not believe they are installed. I may be wrong on the exact date, as m

So in my view, the issues I think about now are: - Too few researchers, as in my area of quantum computing. I would state there is one other group that has any academic rigour, and is actually making significant and important progress. The

It is more, many companies can't do what they claim to do, or they have done it once at best and had no more consistency. I sense most companies in the quantum computing space right now are of this ilk. As someone that works in academi

I would be fine if they went bust. They have clearly over sold their product which has very little value day to day.

As a former homeless person, good on you. I will say, don't feel pressured to, a chat or a nice comment actually means as much, it reminded me I was human.

Many are gambles, many are funded by those who know buzzwords but not the actual market or viability. Once that funding runs out, often the buzzword has moved on to something new so no more funding can be gained. You have to find a way to m
