I HATE ALGEBRA !

[davidclegg]

Love the analogy with beavers slapping their tails on the water of a lake as the killers of coherence. How much more Canadian can the explanation of quantum mechanics get?

[steitisch]

Hartmut Neven sounds like Dr. Kaufman: watch?v=fxCs7T4PA2A

We hit it off so well after another visit busizz4me.info

[singhinderjit95]

i don't get it. what is this video about

[quantumdude]

Allow me to retorque:

1) You are a super coward in denial by posing as a troll when in fact you are a humiliated subpar college student with a napoleon complex.

2) I like pussies (preop or postop)

3) I am not defeated as you havent proven you are a troll at all, and wont ever be able to do so either.

[popnstart]

@quantumdude , Lamboragon is a loser(on youtube anyway). Something funny happened: I was also a victim of his less-than-friendly comments. So, I just googled his u.n. and, you guessed it! Knuckle-headed Lambo has a photo-bucket acct. WITH THE SAME U.N. I thought naw that was too easy. Ok, then what, ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!? A screen-shot of his F.B. acct.!!?? Naw that would be really stupid, esp. for someone aspiring for their PHD(BTWyou nailed him on that one).LongstoryshorthisFBfriend­sRfriendly.

[quantumdude]

@popnstart LOL. Man you just made my day. Thanks for the heads-up and for posting the results of your search ;)

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon No I do not think, or never believed, you were a troll. I still dont think so and nothing will convince me of the later either. Ive seen trolls acting out and they are way smarter and organized than you.

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon Ok Sheeporagon, gotta catch my plane. TTYL, your homework: learn about the notion of determinant, eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Ill be pleased to school you in any of those notions for free and out of pure and sincere generosity later on.

[quantumdude]

Pretending to troll in order to not loose faces when being owned like a little bitch, how elegant. I wasnt expecting anything less of you actually so Im not suprise. Youre not a troll, just a bitter loser.

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon LOL, its true but hey, whatever I say youll just twist it around to your own liking. Regardless, if I were into kinky gay sex or just into hot asian girls it would still be more than what you and that pathetic masturbaton of yours you call a hand will ever get in your mechanical douchery sorry ass life. Enjoy your 9 to 5 schedule ordinary and boring man !

God job on the spelling BTW, its nice to be corrected by such an authority as yourself.

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon Maybe, maybe not, who cares ? I enjoy writing this plus Im in transit between planes here at Taichung (Im going to Bangkog for the week). Ill try to remember this conversation (I doubt I might) while getting a BJ on the beach sipping mojitos while youre (alternate ?) self will look for other easy way out to talk himself out of an embarassing situation that only emphasises how much lonely and shallow his existence truly is.

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon In fact they might, I dont care at all. Owning a respectable income is always a plus, but it sure as hell doesnt equate to your intellect if that is what your referring to (Im actually sure you are referring to that). Good luck running all your life after that high income stature youre so found of with your half-ass physics education and poor math skills (I actually had 11-12 yold korean or chinese pupils way ahead of you in that sector already).

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon And FYI dumbass physical eng. is synonymous with the field of material and optical eng. (such as nanotechnology, photonics and so on).

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon No, youre worst than an amateur as amateurs by definition actually enjoy and take interest in what theyre studying, youre a phony worried about self-image. You also failed linear algebra it seems as the statement "solving a matrix" you just made makes absolutely no sense whatsoever in terms of resolution of linear (or non-linear) equation systems. So much for your future in computer engineering, who would hire such a cheap hack incapable of using basic terminology?

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon LOL, who said I was in Quantum Physics ? Thats why you suck so much, youre supposed to be physics litterate by curriculum yet you had you ass handed to yourself by an amateur :P Yeah I know Mechanical engineering. is trash, thats were all the dropouts and clueless noobs end up. At least you could have gotten into a program with more balls like software, electrical or physical. Knowing that you are already in a subpar establishment isnt reassuring either.

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon Meh I doubt it as my IQ is rather low and still I can read you like a child . The way you spell Ph.D. also says much about your potential but hey as long as I kicked your ass in this particular thread, its all good to me :).

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon Well Im no therapist, its good you have an actual diagnosis. I just  had a hunch because due the aspect of wanting to "seduce" people with what you would consider to be an ideal in life (being at Harvard and following the progress of state of the art research). Announcing yourself superiority as an intelectual by pretending to master fluid dynamics is anoter hint. Being alone and feeling unappraciated tends to make you creat an ideal of your own inside your head I guess.Sad stuff :/

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon Thats nice, another topic you migh be found of looking up is personality disorders, the boderline or histrionic types especially.

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon That part was actually pretty easy to decipher, the reason why one would go through such lenghts is another story :/.

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon No need to, as fluid dynamics was never on topic. You choosed to bring it on topic hoping that ''complicate non-linear dynamics'' would intimidate me and give you the appearance of being smart and all-knowing of the entire field of physics. Well, it doesnt. It makes you look like an insecure asshole to be honest. That and stating bluntly that QM is all about solving ''wave equations", something that is usually taughted in elementary college courses.

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon You sound more and more like some californian spoiled little girl who's daddy got her a brand new car. Hell, maybe you are after all. Just remember that will all that fancy curricular and all that money spend on courses you got your ass kicked by a nobody on the internet.

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon LOL, it seems to me your about to snap. Who said anything about grammar ? I merely pointed out the spelling the "Navier-Stokes". You can cry and brag all you want, quite irrationally I must say, how much youre educated and are superior. Thing is I dont care. Keep using that circular logic of yours and trying to intimidate people with that "elitist image" youre so found of if it makes you more secure, sad reality is youre just a phony. Now go hit that bottle of Jack some more...

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon Its also astonishing to see such a moron pretending to know about QM yet his idea of it is limited to friggin wave mechanics and the Schrodinger equation. I suggest you learn about second quantization before making yourself look like a moron again.

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon Its Navier-Stokes FYI. And yes, Im all too familiar with non-linear differential equations and know their implication in elementary engineering courses. Youre not impressing anyone here. And QM is not about solving diff. eqations so no wonder you do not understand anything about it. Keep flashing your "knowledge" to your dumbass friends at frat parties, theyll be the only ones impressed by your superficial skills, I assure you.

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon You do not know that as youre only basing you arguments on popular awareness and publicity. Theres lots of highly specific fundamental research fields that looked really promising in the past to only sink in total oblivion later on.

Thanks for proving my point that you have no idea of what you talking about either in terms of fundamental science as you are clearly avoiding my simple inquiries. No just because your teacher said so is not enough for me.

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon Great, therefore answer the 3 basic questions Ive asked you and then we can have something ressembling a conversation. Otherwise quit yapping about your curricular or your superior entourage and get to the point.

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon No I think youre just a typical Harvard student (in economics mind you) who thinks he knows better than everybody else because he heard one day that QC would become really really big and so much money could be made out of it. Youre just following popular science, basing your empty arguments on research done at MIT that you couldnt dream of ever understanding at the most elementary level. Youre just admiting your ignorance by trying to intimidate me with your "smart professors".

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon I never said we musnt dream, theres a difference between projection and hands-down charlatanism. Instead of asking how its flawed and unrealistic so far, why dont you explain to me how will the chosen architecture in ten years will look like ? Please avoid to simply reply: solid state (duh) I wanna know: How do you manage to couple a system as ridiculously small as 3 qbits at will ? How do you measure its dynamics ? How do you scale it to something remotely useful ?

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon Your physics professor are full of shit and in need of fundings. Thats why they make speculative science that sounds real good to investors. You are the little man by blindly believing what they tell you instead of looking up on your own. Shit, they were saying the same thing about quantum control of chemical processes back in 1980, only 10 year blah blah...fuck you you twat, youre just an ignorant prick.

[affluenceclm]

Free energy technology exists!But the Establishment doesn't want ppl to know this,Get the blueprints for a free energy motor at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,Be part of the revolution!

[Rambyte53]

Regarding the First Speaker: Is the reason he is wearing sunglasses on his forehead that he is expecting a very bright light at some point in time he needs to be prepared for?

Regarding the Second Speaker: If System Architects are worth their annual salary, why are systems in such a mess?

[Rambyte53]

Is the reason he is wearing sunglasses on his forehead that he is expecting a very bright light at some point in time he needs to be prepared for?

[Rambyte53]

Is the reason he is wearing sunglasses on his forehead that he is expecting a very bright light at some point in time?

[steinitz01]

Is this really a quantum chipp or just unsubstantiated claim or a scam?

[quantumdude]

@Lamboragon Guess the truth hurts. Nice comeback loser.

[Poxik26]

I'm sure it was thought that communicating across the world in an instant was seen as impossible in the past. I'd say find topics you can explore and advance instead of criticizing the work of other academics. It's very easy to say "that doesn't work" and walk away. There is working hardware, end of story. The science works, and it's in its infancy stage. There is limited utility in any new science, but you get exponential gains in acceptance as applications are developed for any system.

[vanderbilt887]

Can't the quality of this video be improved? The slides are hard to follow.

[levon333]

Is it possible to find the presentation slides used in this video?

Thanks in advance.

[djaa2807]

Really hard to understand

[humexavier]

A quantum super computer would be levitated and only laser light and magnetic signals would be processed no electrical circuits only photo-voltaic laser memory symbols of ones and zeros are processed. Reflection of light is monitored on how fast laser light glowing cells can recognize the ones meaning light on and zero when light is off measuring like a strobe light; I ask how fast can a solar cell recognize laser strobe light: infinite is the answer

[randomdude3824]

IT's got to be hard to examine or determine a quantum state. I wonder if it's like examining an actual atom in it's natural state, but in it's natural state, it gives off no energy to record an image, but if you give it energy to radiate, then it's in an excited state.. this whole thing confuses me, I'm not getting it LOL it's gotta be hard as hell tho

[dezmoanded]

mkay he said 1000 qbits by 2008, it's now 2010 and their website says they're not even done with 128 qbits, what gives?

[GeordieRose]

@dezmoanded : uhhh .... it's really freakin hard?

[55t1]

I have heard a talk that was given a few years ago by someone who was highly regarded in this field, that essentially trying to read the state they are trying to achieve, destroys it. It can't be done.

[quantumdude]

Quantum Computing is one the worst case of speculative science I have ever seen. Its even worse than laser-driven coherent control of quantum processes. Its a grad student trap and career destroyer.

[cantfindascreennam]

i love all these bold predictions way out of left field lol (and I say this as someone who is researching QC)

[0MoTheG]

so in h_n, n=28=m at the moment and in J_nm only the diagonal and the numbers near it can be != 0 ?

with the pictures they precomputeed, which featurepoints where most likely to be the same to get it down to 3 comparisons?

also the perspective(angle to normal) is very important to the algorithm.

what determines how long it takes? what kind of computation, needs a change on the "knobs"? optimising doesn't, aside from anealing?

nice but not that applicable yet (Dec. 2007).

[weiwei1467]

This is a brilliant implementation of quantum computing

[ZEROCOOL962]

this is really awesome...i think that this new concept of the algorithm and arquitecture about computing will be the future of the humanity...

imagine a quantum computer coperating with scientifics and phisics in the LHC project...

discovering all the secrets of the universe with just giving some kind of privileges to this artificial brain...treated as if it were the most intelligent human ever born...

awesome...

[agu160579]

Si lo piensas a gran escala estamos ante una tecnica capaz de preveer el futuro.

Solo espero que no nos exterminemos entre nosotros para poder verlo con mis propios ojos ^^

[CamiloSanchez1979]

Why did they endorse Dwave? you need a major breakthrough in quantum physics to produce a quantum computer

[NoogLeader]

Wrong. We have them. YOU SUCK. hahahaha.

[Transubstantiation2]

Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction .... Declaration of Independence ... legally what other logic have we got

[Transubstantiation2]

Amalie Emmy Noether

[xcommunicate]

At any note, I think taking the step forward is worth it, and so do a lot of other people. I personally know that D-Wave has had a lot of money thrown at them, and this company should not be ignored. I love how they share findings in the technology.

[xcommunicate]

D-Wave is not a new company. I think they are saying even though you cant step from nothing to true quantum. That does not mean to not have effort in stepping into the direction of true quantum. I grew up from no hard drive times, to 3 comps, 1 laptop, all around 3gig CPUs, multi core, 24"LCD's.

[xcommunicate]

I have a problem with the statement not true quantum computing in its complete manner. This is a point that people make when talking about the subject and so 0 efforts because you cant step from nothing to full quantum.

[davidwizard2006]

adiabetic process is frankly easier than the other model, but a lot of people say it in some sense is not true quantum computing in its complete manner

[kapazas2002]

quench disorder = bandgap ? .... the terms are all over the spectrum.

[sadhusuman]

I am mechanical engg trying to understand the quantum computing.

My understanding is that adiabatic process is a near instantaneous process while annealing is a slower process. But here these terms are used otherwise.

Can anybody clarify my predicament

Thank u

[Hazzark]

You can study it at university if you love phyisics and computers. The good thing about it is that quantum is very hand in hand with information theory.

Quantum computers are the computers that can drive your car or fly a plane

you hear about nvidia having quantum effects in their new processors but its all crap because a classical computer cant simulate the effects efficently so they arent really processing the information they are just simulating similar effects.

[terrasrevenge]

oOo unknown territory.... How does one go about getting into quantum mechanics in the field of creating quantum computers anyways?

[timwintle]

Very well described, and great diagrams.

[hippstar]

This talk is very useful for anyone interested in learning how image recognition works and how it can now be accomplished using a practical quantum computer that employs a particular class of quantum computation called Adiabatic Quantum Computing. The talk is fairly technically challenging because it simultaneously covers aspects of image recognition, physics, mathematics and quantum theory - but, it is well worth watching even if you don't have a background in any of these fields.

[zebow2002]

The future is bright. Quantum computing is amazing.

[TracyMcSpacy]

very informative, but was trying to learn how to use my ising. now Im interested about the clock cycles of, what you said.

[gongargongar]

Nice video. Took me 3 sittings to get to the end though :P
