Obvious troll is obvious

Must be the dumbest take on QC I've seen yet. You expect a lot of people to focus on how it'll break crypto. There's a great deal of nuance around that and people should probably shut up about it. But "dime stuck in the road is a stable datapoint" sounds like a late 19th century op-ed about how airplanes are impossible.

Not to mention that quantum cryptography has found ways to prevent that already.
