Hi Mark,
Agreed. But in the meantime, they can do a lot of damage and cause much pain
and suffering before they implode. The real irony is that most believe they are

Correct. It was originally a simple statement about two-dimensional
geometry. It happens that speed followed roughly the same curve for a long

Programming could surely be improved a great deal, since some languages
were designed to be bad to give programmers lots of work.

What James says is true about the radius of connection. However, two
things have been driving that radius smaller - smaller gate size and chip
stacking. We all recognize that making the transistors and the gates
smaller decreases this radius, but what is not widely recognized is chip
stacking

yes, moore law talk of size of transistor, but that is linked to speed,
complexity, RAM size...
there are many different moore laws and when they interact with dimensions
in real world it created big problems.
for exemple disk and RAM memory capacity grow faster than the I/O to talk
to the disk.
I suppose there will evolve a molecular scale device of about 1,000 atoms,
interacting by light speed signals, with local memory modules directly
adjacent in six directions -- what would be the cycle time for this?
Since 1660 the growth of all science has been exponential -- that's the

It is my contention that the Ni/H reactor is a proof of principle for the
quantum computer. In the Ni/H reactor energy is shared instantaneously
between all the plasmonic components of the reactor because there exists a
condition of global BEC maintained throughout the reactor.

This is nonsense.
In microcomputer architecture there is something known as the radius of
control, which is bounded by the distance that can be traversed by a signal
from a processing unit to memory and back. That feedback time is, even in

The mechanism that underpins the quantum computer is entanglement and the
speed of entanglement is instantaneous. Computing components will be
connected through long rang entanglement so data will be shared
instantaniously.
