Computer chips are getting smaller and faster, but there's a limit to how small we can go Quantum computing is a way to keep making computers faster once we hit the limit of normal computer chips It's based on the idea of using tiny particles that can exist in multiple random "states" at any one time Quantum bits (or qubits) in a quantum computer could be a one, a zero, or both at the same time Think of a giant pole running through the centre of the earth The pole would be in the middle, but also at both ends of the planet, simultaneously In this example, a qubit could be at any point of the planet, and at all points of the planet, at any given time That means a qubit could store huge amounts of information, because it has millions of possible "states" This means that a quantum computer would be able to perform complex tasks very quickly by utilising qubits Sadly, quantum computers are still very much a work-in-progress But scientists hope that by using tiny particles like photons, it would be possible to advance quantum computing research
Doesn't socialism do that already?

In the meantime, some guy mysteriously showed up in the lab named Gronk and commenced to whipping all their a$$es.
Interesting. Needs confirmation.
Trump could use that machine to go back in time and pick anybody other than Sessions for AG.
Billiard balls do not scatter in a "haphazard way". They move in an entirely predictably way, IF you could precisely define the exact properties of ALL of the environment. Factors like ball curvatures and three axis stiffnesses at the points of contact, ball spacings, table friction and stiffness, path direction and ball spin, etc. all effect the paths, making the final result appear to be "haphazard". Knowing all of these properties, would make it possible to calculate the paths backward to reestablish the original shape. It would not make TIME go backward, it would just make a calculation of the ball position "go backward".
Speaking of time, is there any way to speed all this up? I'd like to go back and correct a few little blunders.
I get all my scientific information from the Sun-UK.
“We have artificially created a state that evolves in a direction opposite to that of the thermodynamic arrow of time.”
I’m interested in that word “artificially.”
Your electrons can be sent into the future.
But your protons & neutrons will have to stay behind.

Interesting. How do they deal with probabilistic nature quantum mechanics?
This is a horribly written article. This is not a time machine in any sense of the word or concept. It does not defy the laws of physics. The billiard ball set up is a rouse not even close to a good analogy
You want to defy the laws of physics??? Open a vacuum chamber and watch the atmosphere disappear. Such nonsense
They are supposedly successful half the time. Gee that’s what I want in an info carrier
Great Scott!
Uncle Rico will be happy.

Maybe those Egyptians were ON to something. Heliopolis.
What did Bernini know and when did he know it?
wiki: "The obelisk was originally erected at Heliopolis, Egypt, by an unknown pharaoh..."
Heliopolis (wiki):
"Its native name was I͗wnw ("The Pillars"), whose exact pronunciation is uncertain because ancient Egyptian recorded only consonantal values. Its traditional Egyptological transcription is Iunu but it appears in biblical Hebrew as Ôn (אן) and Āwen (און), leading some scholars to reconstruct its pronunciation as *Āwanu. Variant transcriptions include Awnu and Annu."
Because, well then there's that "cipher decipherer" name, where the word key (Hebrew mafte'ach) appears as the last letters of the name phrase in bold:
Genesis 41:45 And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnathpaaneah; and he gave him to wife Osnat the daughter of Potipherah priest of On. And Joseph went out over all the land of Egypt.
It goes ON. Puns for the win!
Truly yours...The Doctor
In before they figure out how to use this for porn...
After the break, did the scattered balls physically regroup into the triangular form they had before the break, at the correct spot on the table? Did the cue ball return to its original spot. Or did a resulting video of the break merely reverse itself and merely DEPICT such a scene? All the difference in the world.
