What happens in 2029?

Seem to recall this story from r/nosleep a long time ago. That's one of the things I still haven't replaced from my reddit days, I liked reading through the top stories every once in a while. There really were some gems. I just got an AO3 account so maybe I can find something like that again, but I'm not too familiar with the site.

I took a course on quantum computing in university. It's a really neat technology and it can absolutely do things inconceivable by classical computing, but classical computers still do most stuff way better. In a rational world these chips would be developed and then used for their niche purposes, but I'm definitely concerned that this will be another technology indiscriminately shoved in our faces to try to capitalize on a bubble.

Always a struggle for me. I saw Canada's demo CF-18 at an airshow a few years back and was having simultaneous thoughts of "so this is why we can't afford clean water for our indigenous communities" and "HOLY SHIT IT SOUNDS SO COOL".

In addition to the reasons other people mention, placebo is a helluva drug. If you believe the name brand is better, it may actually become more effective for you even if the active ingredients are the same as the generic.
