While I agree, at least here every word, though is verbose, at least means something, whereas “HOW TO RETURN” carries no more meaning than “def”.

I’m sorry, do you mean Orwell’s “1984”? Because all I can find for “1948” is an Israeli autobiographical novel, that, as far as I can tell, doesn’t resemble “We”. (Although, imho, “1984” is quite different from “We” as well.)

As I understand it, the hardware very much lags behind the algorithms. We have plenty of cool algorithms to run on quantum computers, but to be practically interesting they all need more qubits or better coherence times than is available to

I know a couple of quantum software engineers and these people are in universities writing novel algorithms on whiteboards (and sometimes testing them out in QuPy).
