Quantum Computing

    I suggest that someone, or better, many someones, should try to design a quantum computer. If you are wondering what in the world that is, I will try to explain. A computer uses a binary system of information, meaning all of it's information is either a 1 or a 0. Quantum computers use all the f****d up rules of the quantum world (electrons, protons, tiny things like that) to compute in odd ways. For instance, a quantum bit of data can be 1 or 0. It can also be both. Or neither. And that is just a simple part of it, it can fold in on itself and be 1, 0, both, and neither at the same time. Anyway, I challenge YOU to create a computer that uses these principles the do something better than the old computers on TPT. Good luck (you're going to need it )

    But TPT cannot simulate superpositions.

    I could probably build a six-bit computer on powder toy if I had the time. But your suggesting that the entire thing would use energy particles to carry data around and with 1s and 0s and both 1 and 0 or niether. That is a 2-bit computer and with particle speeds it would be slow. Honestly the other pt coms will be faster. ARAY would be useful but will require FILT and PSCN to ARAY for speed. Your better of with them and INST not energy particles 0_o

    Quantum Computing? Well, would our viewing of the particles stimulate decoherence? Also, there is no such thing as a perfect randomizer, unless you actually look at the real quantum world. And do you know the physics required to manipulate subatomic particles?

    Ben, a quantum computer is not your brain. They are special machines adept at quickly caculating hypercomplex equations like 234,236,529,253,735,387,123,950,236,651,548,120,276,234,835,120,456,154,183,490,423 to the googleplex power, and then divided by Pi. Accurately.
