I realize this is 100% not the point, but is this an immediately practical breakthrough that will change computing?

My extremely limited understanding is “no” as I sorta assume that would be the headline. The main point being that while a MASSIVE improvement over any previous progress it’s still “small” from a practical standpoint.

This is not to downplay the very well conveyed problem this might be, but I just want to make sure I even got that right.

I do wonder if this will be a major issue for future development or if the math experts in diapers right now will grow up in this world and have tools and understanding to assist and we’re just in a rough transition, but unfortunately that’s about as much as I can contribute.
