I's really a bigger feat than what google achieved last year[1] and yet almost nobody will hear about it because google took all the hype. It's a pretty sad story actually.
[1]: the google achievement was designing a specific problem for which their quantum computer could perform better than classical computers. Now, this is a solution to a preexisting problem. Not to say that Google's result wasn't important, but this one is “one rank” higher.
