    Quantum computers are a thing, and they’re very useful for certain things…

    But business idiots in the tech world do be slapping the word “quantum” on stuff. It’s not a huge thing at the moment, but it’s probably gonna be the next insufferable hype cycle after they get tired of branding random shit as “AI enabled” because they stapled a chat bot on to it.

    Like, give it a few years, someone will be trying to tell you that a quantum computer will somehow make a vacuum robot able to do your laundry because “something something better path finding”
