Here ya go. I spent 7 years in the military as a dog handler with two different malinois during that time.

I then got out and worked for a government agency investigating dog attacks.

One of the first jobs across my desk was… an American Bully XL. Almost killed another dog and sent a male person to the hospital. The dog was from an upper class family and was around little children daily.

We had 7 dogs that we had confiscated, pending court hearing regarding attacks.

7 out of 7 dogs were bully breed dogs.

In my experience I will not trust a bully breed dog in any circumstance. I’d take a malinois any day over a bully breed dog.

After a long break from the seas, returning after close to 8 years, pirate life has really improved.

Synology + dockers + automation tools = the experience that streaming should have been

Sure ETSI are responsible for the encryption standard.

And Motorola is free to use that standard on radio handsets made with components of ITAR controlled items.

The use of any component controlled via ITAR will have the entire unit controlled.

Having used a Motorola product covered by ITAR on “the wrong continent” many times.

Bingo. All of these technologies are controlled by ITAR.

I have zero doubt this was for clandestine use internationally and it was almost inevitable. Outside of a back-door there is no way you’re getting access to properly encrypted net with some of the higher end technologies.

Thanks mate. I really appreciate your time. I hope I get to see quantum computing be in practical use in my lifetime.

It’ll be insane to see where “AI” and quantum computing lead us. Folding at home was always really interesting to me, and I could imagine a machine learning platform combined with the massive increase in compute power could solve so many biomedical problems.

Amazing. Thank you.

Don’t ever apologise for getting carried away. Sharing something you’re passionate about is a gift for your audience!

Can you also explain quantum advantage for me?

And share your thoughts on what you think the timeline will look like for the development of quantum computing?

Also I’m sorry but I have one more question for you, Being a bit of a tech nerd I’ve had a few conversations with people about quantum computing and encryption. Obviously there’s concerns that current cyphers will be obsolete, but I’ve always wondered is this not a problem that we could easily solve by just drastically ramping up entropy?

I have a very very basic idea which could be wrong.

When qubits are entangled they’re basically a traditional bit of data, paired to another. If you change one of the bits, you change the other.

So what’s the benefit? I think the easiest way of thinking about it is to dumb it down as much as you can.

If I’m processing 4 bits of data. Say 1010. And then I execute a function that changes that data to say 0101. Traditionally I need to send another 4 bit string of data for processing. But if my original data was actually a pair of entangled qubits of say 10 and 10, well if I change one of the pair to 01 i’ve changed the other pair already because they’re entangled.

So effectively through one qubit entangled pair I’ve doubled my throughput.

So if you can effectively scale this, the potential upside is huge.

“Cells. Within cells interlinked.”

They’re every inconvenience rolled in to one. A pain to get in. A pain to park. Use heaps of fuel. Don’t fit in garages, and to top it off are expensive AF. I’m confident in saying unless you tow like, horse floats on the regular, if you own one you’re a fucking idiot.

The real sad part for me is the amount of e-waste this produces. Especially in devices like laptops.

A clean Linux distro can extend a laptops life by a decade. I have a laptop from the c2d era that I threw an ssd in and put Linux on. Perfectly serviceable as a basic machine.

Yeh I’m in the same boat. The day the internal memo came out about how everything will blow over, I deleted Apollo. I haven’t been back to reddit since and after the first week, I don’t even miss it now.

I wish lemmy was a bit busier, but outside of that the general atmosphere and quality here is better. Even if everything was reversed and Spez was booted, I won’t return now.
