It remains an open question when a commercial quantum computer will emerge that can outperform classical (non-quantum) machines in speed and energy efficiency while solving real-world combinatorial ...

The "Echoes of Old Battles" quest in Where Winds Meet takes place in a rather creepy old fortress now known as the Northern Vow Ruins. But the most daunting thing about this side quest isn't the dead ...

Americans have a knack for turning the price of food into national theatre. In 1916 housewives boycotted “egg speculators” for daring to charge 36.5 cents a dozen. Three decades later President Harry ...

Photonic quantum processors, devices that can process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects and particles of light (photons), have shown promise for numerous applications, ranging from ...
