Why the attitude for this section? Seems obvious to me!
Anyway, well done.

"Tomorrow at the outside" == first and last letters of "Tuesday" - you're reaching a little there, my friend!
Not a bad one though!

It makes perfect sense.
You could use "This month" for Oct, for example. So long as it is a 'Proper' clue then it is acceptable.

I think he's thinking along the lines of : tw is the outside of tomorrow , good clue though.

I think making accurate prediction is hard, especially about the future!
But it looks like one more cool step toward cool tech! The singularity is upon us!

If we can just struggle on until this thing is in production we could fire all polititions and figure things out sensibly.

We don't really need that much for that...

Fascinating !
"The ability to store and process huge amounts of data in a quantum way (on an atomic scale) would revolutionise computing, making it possible to carry out massive calculations and enabling computers to understand chemical reactions, create new medicines and carry out seemingly impossible simulations, such as the creation of our universe."
And, when they perform the simulation of the creation of our universe, and find out that what we thought were our "real lives" were dreams in the minds of gods: a few will be blissful; many will commit suicide since they will find the knowledge they create their own fictional continuity in time intolerable because they realize that they have chosen who they are, and are fully responsible for their own actions.

The people started, open mouthed, at the sky. Or, rather, what had been the sky.
Across the plain blue, cloudless expanse, in bright, white writing, was written
"A problem has been detected and Reality has been shut down to prevent damage to your Quantum Computer".
As if automata, eight billion people simultaneously saluted with three fingers.

Who knows.... Maybe we can even sync a 3d on it....

Cool, but I think that even when useful quantum computers become a thing, they'll be the huge room-filling things used mostly for simulation at quantum scales. Mortals like most of us won't ever get to program them, and we wouldn't understand it anyway. Eventually quantum computing would become cheaper, and we might start seeing services pop up where you can submit parameters for a fixed set of problems that they can solve.

Maybe. I don't count it as a true quantum computer. D-Wave is cool and quantumy, but afaik only applicable to some specific problems, even more niche than a proper quantum computer would be.

To some extent the possibility is already there.
You know the advice to use those 'military grade' disk wipe applications before you give an already used hard-drive to another person - it's because the amplitude of the magnetism on a disk gives away the previous values stored on that physical part of the disk.
I am surprised that nobody has yet developed a disk/driver that will allow multiple bits to be written at the same time using this feature of being able to measure the amplitude of the magnetism - you could triple disk size.
There again I am not an electronics engineer so I may be off on one...
