Honestly it doesn't feel like quantum computing is ever going to be an actual factor in the real world, just like nuclear fusion, anti-matter, asteroid mining, or flying cars. All those things have been "near-future technologies" for decades, meanwhile the number of nuclear fission plants is decreasing, well-established technologies like trains and planes are stagnating and everything is slowly coming to a halt like some Randian nightmare.

I know someone who is working on fusion and they're actually making more progress than I would have anticipated. Not sure about the others..
