I feel like you can do both these days, can't you? Hades was one of the first to break this ground.

Well, yes and no.

Quantum computers will likely never beat classical computing on classical algorithms, for exactly the reasons you stated, classical just has too much of a head start.

But there are certain problems with quantum algorithms that are exponentially faster than the classical algorithms. Quantum computers will be better on those problems very quickly, but we are still working on building reliable QCs. Also, we currently don't know very many quantum algorithms with that degree of speedup, so as others have said there isn't many use cases for QCs yet.

Is Sicario an adaptation? I can't find any reference that it is.

Also, Prisoners is technically an adaptation of a short-story, but it's a not very well known short-story (I don't even see a name for the story on Wikipedia) from the writer of the screen play, so you could make an argument that the short story is essentially just a first draft of the script.

I do agree that we should just let him continue doing whatever he wants, he's done excellent work.

What is this garbage? If I own a house/gold/collectable/toilet paper during covid/... and the value goes up, am I supposed to pay taxes?

Yes, you are supposed to pay taxes on that (or on the house specifically). It's called property taxes.

If the value goes up, you pay more taxes the next year, if the value goes down you pay less.

I'm not sure the ownership situation of the company, but it is also independently in bankruptcy so I think that is being dealt with later

After a few years the orbit will degrade enough that it'll start to fall back to earth. At that point, the satellite will either burn up completely on re-entry, or partially and the rest will fall to earth.

Either way, each of these satellites will be completely gone from orbit after a few years.

ULA is already a private company. I don't think the US government has done any of their own work to get to space since the shuttle.

Hi Will!

Now that you've tried out directing as well as acting, which side of the camera do you prefer?

Are there any things you've learned from the experience of directing that you think will help in future acting roles? Additionally, is there anything you would do differently about directing Kodar if you got to start over from scratch today?

How long did you play BoI for if getting burned out on Hades after 40hrs was fairly quick?

If this actually did lead to faster matrix multiplication, then essentially anything that can be done on a GPU would benefit. That definitely could include games, and physics models, along with a bunch of other applications (and yes, also AI stuff).

I'm sure the papers authors know all of that, but somehow along the line the article just became"faster and better AI"

Believe it or not, but companies outside of Boeing and Airbus are capable of designing airplanes.

It's not just "good" regulation holding them back either - in 2017 Boeing accused Bombardier of "dumping" some CSeries planes because they sold them to Delta at below the retail cost (about a 30% discount). The CSeries was/is a good plane, but took an incredibly long time to get through certification so Bombardier had been losing money and was desperate to sell them. Boeing complained about this discount to the US International Trade Commission who imposed a massive fine on Bombardier. Because of the delays, Bombardier couldn't afford to fight the fine so they ended up having to give up a 50% stake in the design to Airbus for only $1. The year after, the fines were appealed and overturned, but the damage was already done. Bombardier has since completely sold their stake in the CSeries (one less competitor), and Airbus gets the renamed A220 series for a massive discount.

As an aside, I can't argue that the FAA doesn't do more good than harm in this space generally, but I'm the last ~5 years it's becoming clear to me that they have a massive blindspot for Boeing in particular.
