Skimmed the litepaper. Has the flavor of: you can do "simulated" annealing by literally annealing. I like the idea of using raw physics as a "hardware" accelerator, i.e. analog computing. fwiw, quantum computing can be seen as a form of analog computing.

I do think that a "better rng" can be interesting and useful in and of itself.

Thanks for the Normal Computing post, it felt more substantial.
