Yeah,
It's speculation. I'm not an expert in quantum computing but from what I can understand the technique they are using looks very very promising. I do understand the most of the physics and the core idea that makes all it it work is explained in the section labled 'Nanoelectronic Device and Spin Readout'. It's actually pretty simple, once they reach a triplet state[^] the Pauli exclusion principle[^] prevents the electron from tunneling and it maintains it's state. This is the core idea behind their technique.
One of the biggest hurdles for me when I read these papers is that every science field has it's own nomenclature. For some reason the paper refers to the Pauli exclusion principle as 'Pauli spin blockade' abbreviated as PSB. It looks like this term is exclusive to the quantum computing field.

I bet spy agencies would pay a lot of money for something that could decrypt captured info 81% of the time.

It is the same technique as putting all the toppings on the pizza before putting into oven,
But, this technique facilitates the removal of half-alive cats, an optimization that saves toppings like anchovies.

I'm a little puzzled now ... Do you ever use half-dead cats for pizza topping?
|
|
|
|
|
It is the smoke from the half-dead cats that gives the pizza the special taste that people wait in line for eternity ... for.

Anyone here into Python and has some spare time? We have a project we need help with.
Email me at chris@codeproject.com if you're interested.

Hmm. It's not a programming question, but a job question. I think there was a "job" forum at one time, but there isn't anything like that now that I can find. Based on that, I think his post is okay.
Of course there's always the "his playground, he can break the rules any time he wants" principle, but...

Is it just me or has dialing in to speak to a Real Human become an exercise in being on hold for literally hours.
Every company has a notice along the lines of "Due to the COVID pandemic we're experiencing higher volumes blah blah blah".
It's been 18 months. How this means that my insurance broker, or local bike store, or an airline is now overrun with calls because of COVID is beyond me. I get that many are working from home but is the lack of staff to take calls because everyone who should be manning the phones is taking their dog for a walk? Or have slept in, again? Or that beer o'clock has slipped from 5pm to 4 to 3 to 10AM?
I'm just wondering what your experiences are, and if anyone who deals with high-volume inbound call systems has any insight into what's going on. Bandwidth issues due to people working from home? Systems simply unable to cope with offsite call-handlers so they are on 25% staffing? Burn out? Home computers still trying to update to Windows 21H1?

eBay and Amazon must be doing something right. Their human service reps seem to answer calls within the (accurately estimated) 1-5 minute period. With everyone else, it seems like a crap shoot.

The Amazon email system on the other hand ... 24 hours for an email OTP? Which expires with the session after 20 minutes!

Friend tried to book his seat for a flight. The announced expected hold time was 250 min, multiple tries, multiple days, always the same. He went to the airport and booked his seat.
I think it is a crap shoot, some outfits have moved their phone centers to never-never land. Unless, of course, it is a sales signup/order line.
I am hearing impaired (PC for almost deef) and accents (like in Wales) are a challenge.

well here in the US, we're paying people to stay home and not work, so there is that.
I have a very smart daughter who is working up to be a paramedic. The fact that she does not want to make a career in "fill in the blank job for a student to make $$ while they study" seems to get her cancelled every time. Weird times.

Oh the irony. I went to a neurologist for a while whose practice's communications were expressly designed to prevent communication between patients and medical personnel unless it was in a billable context. If you called in to speak with the staff to say, refill a prescription or even schedule an early appointment, you were put on hold and then passed to voice mail. Voice mails took 2-3 business days before they were returned. My last appointment there took 5 phone calls, 2 hours total on hold, and 3 voice mails back and forth to be scheduled. Their "patient portal" was even worse. Beautifully designed, but refill requests typically took 5-8 business days.
Yes, I'm a grumpy old SOB. I'm sick and tired of elaborate technology being used in place of good service. My current doctor, in practice all his own, has a receptionist who answers the phone. I call and talk to a human. Unfortunately the doctor's older than I am, so I'm going to end up at MegaMedCorp™ before I shuffle off this mortal coil .

I recently called a company, I think my electric company, and I got someone instantly!
It actually startled me and I couldn't bring out a word...
I was like "hi... uhhh... well... uhhh... I'm sorry, I didn't expect someone to pick up the phone this fast." and we both laughed
But mostly, it's like you describe.
