High temperature superconductors.
@JapanHODL
not very constructive comment.
Yet, i do still believe energy consumption is unbearable in the long run for the added service. In case of energy shortage, governments will always prioritize industries and services (any activities giving jobs) over crypto. Mining is a physical activity -- that's exactly why it is called proof of work -- so it makes it vulnerable to governments unplugging the mining factories. Now, I think it is better to have that in mind.
@JapanHODL
It will be banned In the future one way or the other. Energy consumption is too high for the added value.
@michal kindda agree. I would like it to work like a p2p version of twitter, wheras it's closer to a p2p version of signal. Yet, in both the problem is how to connect 2 persons without a central directory.
@michal
Any specific reason?
Important notice from #Signal: Info circulating that signal would be hacked are just rumors to stop people from using secure communication options. Encryption saves lives.

#Signal is way more secure than #Telegram.
But while Signal was not hacked AFAIK, there are a few issues:
1. The client is no longer fully open source: https://signal.org/blog/keeping-spam-off-signal/
2. The server was closed source for a long period which shoud raise eyebrows.
3. Their servers are hosted with PRISM-connected companies, allowing observers to analyze the traffic.
#Briar should be a better option IMHO.

@CKsTechnologyNews
It's the otherway around. You can show that classical reality is indeed embedded within quantum theory. The phenomenon is called 'quantum darwinism' and explains how quantum mechanics 'naturally' selects some states tnat get amplified and acquire classical objective properties
@YesIKnowIT
the key idea comes from this paper https://arxiv.org/abs/1804.00640 with several other people.
It shows that a classical person can indeed get convinced that a quantum device has prepared a given quantum state. This without assumption about what the quantum device does [as long as it consistently passes a test and cannot break some cryptoscheme].
"How do you know whether a quantum computer has done anything quantum at all?"

I dont get it, tongue can taste only 4 flavors: sugar, salt, acid, sour. The rest is through the nose.
