If we project exponential advancement for both technologies, QC still not be faster within our lifetime for any NP problem without a miracle. 14:06 < fenn> "It may well be that time travel is as common as dirt, and shapes our physical laws, but conspires, by wave function interference, to prevent any operations that would result in logically inconsistent situations," 14:06 < jrayhawk> and, of course, d-wave can be emulated on practically any PC faster than it operates in real time. 14:07 < jrayhawk> at least, for NP problems 14:07 < fenn> i expect something similar to SIMD coprocessors 14:07 < jrayhawk> BQP-specific problems I don't really understand at all 14:07 < fenn> you wouldn't run an IRC client on a quantum computer, but maybe certain specific problems in cryptography or graphics 14:08 < fenn> i dont know what BQP is 14:10 < fenn> classical computing progress is driven by reduced feature size from improved lithographic processes; QC manufacturers also have access to those processes 14:10 < fenn> have you looked at a d-wave chip layout? they are wasting most of the chip 14:12 < fenn> oops i was wrong, d-wave uses most of the chip surface, nevermind 14:13 < jrayhawk> we also have improved branching, pipelining, compilation, etc. 14:14 < jrayhawk> and the next 30 years of progress are going to be a lot more about math and less about physics 14:14 < fenn> what makes you say that? 14:15 < jrayhawk> our primary limitation at this point is the clock 14:15 < fenn> clock is limited by RC constant due to metallic wires 14:16 < fenn> optical interconnects can enable another order of magnitude or two 14:16 < fenn> then there's 3d circuitry which further reduces wire length 14:17 < jrayhawk> http://arc.cecs.pdx.edu/publications 14:17 < kanzure> what is cryptoloop? 14:17 < fenn> i do agree that the turing machine paradigm has to be overcome to really take advantage of distributed processing 14:17 < fenn> (i guess that's math) 14:17 < jrayhawk> an ancient and lousy block device encryption scheme 14:18 < kanzure> oh grand 14:18 * kanzure pokes /dev/loop0 14:18 < jrayhawk> yes, the quality of our compilers determines how small our clock domains can go while still doing useful computation 14:20 < fenn> just making sure we're on the same page, you're talking about things like RALA asynchronous logic?

14:43 < fenn> any subset of turing complete languages 14:45 < fenn> when engineers design, say, a JPEG decoder block on a camera ASIC, they don't make a CPU and then program it with software, because it's too slow 14:45 < fenn> they make logic that implements the algorithm directly 14:45 < klafka> so you want to actually decrease abstraction? 14:45 < fenn> it can only do that algorithm, and not any other computations 14:45 < fenn> yes 14:46 < fenn> abstraction is important in interfaces for modularity, but it hugely increases the cost of computation 14:46 < eudoxia> PawrahSailin: i have only skimmed the site but is he some kind of paranoid schizophrenic lisp coder kind of like of the losethos guy?
