Hey nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqgdwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkcqpq8m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsmthtls

I have an emergency.

As of last night Damus keeps crashing on my iPhone. I've done all the usual things. I wonder if you've released a new build?

I'm about to go on a Cruise without my laptop, so I will be using Damus exclusively.

Please compile a new version before Sunday 🙏

Primal works fine.

I don’t believe these are tasks that are done with quantum computation. More like randomness mixed with some kind of goal seeking, but I’m just guessing (and so are they).

D Wave looks like bull to me. I don’t believe it. I want to see a real demonstration of Shor’s algorithm factorising large numbers. Simulating materials sounds like just making stuff up.

Key word is useful. By that I mean a computer that can perform operations infeasible for conventional computers.

I didn’t realise they were still going. I thought they’d finished when Simon died.

Yes, I like that one. I saw them live at Birmingham Symphony Hall many moons ago.

No!

You need to mug up on your krautrock then!

A useful quantum computer can never exist. Prove me wrong.

You mean you’ve not heard of Tangerine Dream before? 🤯

I am aware that there is a certain degree of ambiguity in the clues. That is, however, all part of the fun.

#BIP39

Funny you should say that, given they both originated in early 1970s West Germany.
