I generally avoid discussing Quantum Computing as I know next to nothing, but I've been wondering: Are there any inherently stable/noise free/non-Volatile Quantum Computing methods, at all ? Even just maintaining the state o

Piggybacking off this Why does my Macbook Air which cost me A$1,499(!) have soldered, unupgradable RAM? I can SMD solder but it's still far too risky just to save a few hundred dollars

Cable fires are caused by the current flowing through a wire exceeding its current rating Voltage is largely irrelevant Have a look at the gauge of mains wires (~14-22 AWG) compared to what you'd put on a serious 12V-48V battery (2-8 A
