On the Moore's law, I think it most assuredly would pertain to this. Considering we have figures for both 2012 and 2018, I suppose we could use those data points to make a crude estimate as to where we would be years from now.

The implications of quantum computers is not something terribly savvy to but I do recollect that instead of circuits existing in the on/off state that there are something 4 distinct states. Does that mean 4x processing power? I'm not sure but it would be a fascinating topic to explore further.

I don't happen to have a calculator and it's been a terribly long time since I operated one but I'm trying to find an online tools so maybe we can get a visualization. I may be able to pull it off with Python MatPlotLib but gonna shelf that for now.

Thanks for the thought provoking comment!

I'm not sure the math can be calculated in the same manner. Here is an interesting read. Qubits being 1's, 0's, or both at the same time, and superpostioned particles defying binary constraints, will make for some interesting calculations. Have fun ;)



that gif is good :D

Funny right? 😂 I thought it kind of fits in with the conversation.
