gollark: One day quantum computers might even be able to do useful things faster than my phone!
gollark: Still, it's a thing. Definitely a thing.
gollark: We've reached a point where quantum computers can do *some stuff* faster than classical ones, in that while it would be theoretically possible to emulate...
