Priest indeed!

The world will improve significantly when the wealth hoarding boomers just finish dying off.

Sweet summer child, I’m afraid you have another thing coming.

I’m old enough to have gone through a number of these technology bubbles, so much so that I haven’t paid much attention to them for a fair while. This AI bs feels a bit different, though. It seems to me that lots more people have completely lost their minds this time.

Like all bubbles, this too will end up in the same rubbish heap.

The guy on the left looks like Jamie George (England & Saracens hooker) and the one on the right looks like a blobfish. Any suggested lookalikes of the middle guy?

Which is what they announced in the spending review today: £39b over ten years to social housing. I was not expecting that, but I definitely welcome it. How about getting the planning system sorted and a major increase in skilled labourers happen next? Tomorrow is fine.

I’ve only just recovered from last night. Went to bed silly late (9.15 pm) and needed to sleep well into the morning to balance it out (8 am).

Hugh Grant did just that.

This is such an implausible scam that he should have gotten away with it. But not all is lost. He should relaunch the product with small print ‘not’ in front of Scottish-grown tea.

Not crazy, but I always thought Giggleswick and Wiggleswoth on opposite sides of A65 is funny.

As expected, the Brexit faithful and the rightwing press are already at it: unacceptable, sellout, waiving the white flag, surrender, capitulation, etc. This deal could prove to be rather popular, so the outrage crowd may find their attacks fall a bit flat.

In the sense that there are usable qubits, and single and two qubits gates that one needs in computations, it does work. Presently coherence times are too short and number of qubits too low for practically useful computations, though.

Regardless, a lot can be learned in projects like this about integrating conventional and quantum computing. One has to start somewhere.

They’ll be implementing several updates over the coming years to push towards useful computations. The engineering challenges are formidable and the road will be long and bumpy.

Whatever place, that was robbery.

This rises a number of questions, none of which should be articulated let alone answered!

I’m not sure whether having no hope understanding what people are saying makes an accent bad. Anyway, good luck with your next conversation with a Geordie or Mackem shipyard worker.
