although our lives are singularities right now (we are all utterly alone in an uncaring universe) these aussies are bringing us closer to an even more alien future

maybe even a cyberpunk future

I'm an Australian scientist irl. I don't have faith in our ability to feed ourselves let alone revolutionise anything that matters to anyone.

quantum computing is not exciting, sorry

the amount of energy that you have to put in to use quantum computing to solve problems is basically the same or more than what you'd use with a traditional supercomputer. So they're pointless until they get better, and I doubt this is it.

im a huge supporter of nanite technologies. imagine what they could do for tooth hygeine. no more toothbrushes! lots of other stuff too, like deodarants and hair control.
