Scientists say they've debunked Google’s quantum supremacy claims once and for all

512 has long seemed to me to place a neat upper-bound on how many folks that 
can function as an anarchist polity while knowing each other ( with the help of 
ubiquitous modern technology)
" It takes a village "
For example, with a global UBI scheme seeking to cover 5 billion or so people, 
you could start off with 512 sized nodes, each node then deciding its own rules 
under overall Metcalfes supervision.
Then as Moores carries on you could halve each node at regular periods from 256 
to 128 and so on. As you approach 8 and less we're presumably close to 
uploading by then.
Quantum cryptoanarchy for every individual and Gym Dumbell's endless FUD being 
ancient history.

https://share.newsbreak.com/1joxv01w

A team of scientists in China claim to have replicated the performance of 
Google’s Sycamore quantum computer using traditional hardware, thereby 
undermining the suggestion the company has achieved quantum supremacy.

As reported by Science magazine, the scientists used a system comprised of 512 
GPUs to complete the same calculation developed by Google to demonstrate it had 
passed the quantum supremacy milestone back in 2019.

The endeavor was led by statistical physicist Pan Zhang, who said his team’s 
supercomputer performed the calculation 10 billion times faster than Google had 
thought possible.

Quest for quantum supremacy

Quantum supremacy (or quantum advantage) can be defined as the point at which 
quantum computers can outstrip the maximum potential performance of classical 
supercomputers in a particular discipline.

Three years ago, Google announced it had achieved this feat with Sycamore, 
which it said took just 200 seconds to complete a statistical mathematics 
problem that would take a supercomputer 10,000 years to solve.

The problem was architected in such a way as to accentuate both the attributes 
of quantum computers, which exploit a phenomenon known as superposition to 
speed up calculations, and the limitations of traditional systems.

Let's just say that breaks with reality are off topic.

Oh, and another thing.  Just so that we're all clear of the utter
stupidity of it all (even though it's mentioned in the links I gave
prior):  the Internet Revolution was co-opted into the same fucking
forces as capitalism in America:  GLAM and COMMERCE.  Did you notice
that the simple O(N^2) value generation of the Net is co-opted into a
mere O(N log N) value by network large site co-opting user attention
into data silos to hook them in there for advertising revenue?  The
Net's value originally (back in the late 90's) was scaling value in
the order of Reed's Law:  super-exponential value generation (O(2^N))
by the addition of creating arbitrary groupings (like this cypherpunks
mailing list) on top of the otherwise N^2 value of a effectively
fully-connected network.

So, graph it out:  an 2^N curve versus a N log N curve and watch as
the values of N go above 100.

THAT is the political battle that THIS list should worry about as it
is/was about the Internet Revolution.

Now please give me a report on what you learned in the four texts I
linked to you.

FOR once and FOR ALL

[Xer0Dynamite]

Let's get this straight so all you can shut up or put up:  There are
two futures: one of an Apocalypse or one of Enlightenment.  There are
four prophesies (two religious and two mystical/new age) and two
purely rational arguments why a dramatic and planetary shift MUST and
WILL happen in one form or another.

All this in-fighting is worthless.  If you want the good future it
will take Truths that you do not yet have or Righteousness for those
who have NO voice in the world.  These groups are right in America, no
need to think they're far off and inaccessible.

The experts have been wrong -- all of them.  Whether it's medical
doctors (who have never made a sane nor healthy world) or scientists
(who have not secured a safer future and have wrapped themselves in a
elaborate narrative exactly reminiscent of the Allegory of Plato's
Cave) or religion (who have never even been held to their own creeds
like protecting Earth and Do Not Kill), the failure also lies on all
the MASSES (you and me) who have allowed this clusterfuck to happen
and continue everyday.  You are using your smartphone and sipping
coffee to browse the web and be cool, right?

All these petty issues like bitcoin and encryption, or occupy and gay
rights are so far down the spectrum as to be laughable.  The value of
cypherpunks is tools for greater activism or personal development, not
hiding from the State like little peons, but TRANSCENDING it.

Which is it?
