Ive seen pictures of old rocket engines that were ultra complex and all pipes and shit, newer pics show much simpler looking things, i think in 30 years time stuff like this will be smaller and less complex too.
Neat to see this stage though.

I look at this picture and I can’t help but wonder, how much of that is showing off, and how much is actually necessary?
For instance, those black tubes/cables. Do they need that S-shape, or is it just to make look cool? Why are those black things so long to begin with? What are those yellow disks for?
Edit: thanks all for the links and info!

So we will all be vaporized before we ever know it.

13K faster *than* … what?? C’mon, write a headline that is better than. 🙂

But can it play Crysis?

Than what? 13,000 times faster than I can manually do it?

Is this where the cats come from ? Those tubes and silly straws?

Ya but can it run crysis 2??

Omgggg noooo wayyyy lol

GLaDOS, is that you?

It better not be for the discrete logarithm problem. I just had a cryptography test I aced and don’t want it to become obsolete so soon

Just me or does it look like a mark 1 prototype from Star Trek?

Had to know more, found this:

Did they try to run DOOM on in?

Faster than fastest classical supercomputers!
Here’s the link to the blog for those interested.

Great. Another step closer to actual AI….
This is not good…
Can it run crysis at maximum settings?
but can it run borderlands 4
Ummm… I’m pretty sure your picture only shows its cryogenic cooling system (basically the CPU cooler).
The actual computer should be a small box at the bottom where all the disconnected wires are, which is missing in the picture.
Not as fast as orac
Cool. Now have it figure out how to get universal healthcare in America, while dumping trump in the garbage. Â
Wiring porn
I don’t even know what I’m looking at lol. Are those fiber optic network cables to send and receive data for the quantum computer?
13,000x faster than if it didn’t run it
When can we expect it to fit in our pockets?
Good news! All of your passwords can now be brute forced and encryption is pointless!
And it wasn’t even hooked up to anything according to that pic. Just wait until it’s actually running!
It looks like a Dyson
13,000x faster than my grandma’s toaster?
13,000x faster because 13,000 more beans in it.
Hide yo wife, hide yo kids, hide yo encrypted files and key
Will it help with the of living?
pretty sure quantum computing has been debunked as not really useful and scientists have just been milking it for funding
