“The Rigor of Angels,” by William Egginton, considers how three very different men Jorge Luis Borges, Immanuel Kant and Werner Heisenberg rejected conventional assumptions about reality and embraced paradoxical truths instead.
simultaneous. so that it can actually calculate two tor three places at the same time. so think of a mouse in a maze. a digital computer who would calculate the trajectory of each mouse at every joint and every place where there is a decisions to be made in a maze. it takes forever. quantum computer instantly analyzes all possible modes, all possible strajectories simultaneously. that violates common sense. common sense means you cannot be two places at the same time. well, get with it. in the quantum theory, you can be many places at the same time, and that s the power of quantum computers. what would it look like? would my laptop look the same? when you look at a quantum computer, it s like a chandelier, a gigantic device, but the actual computation is done at the very bottom. what is this chandelier? the chandelier is bringing it
the various states of the waves, they could vibrate in any direction and they re simultaneous. so that it could actually calculate two or three places at the same time. so think of a mouse in a maze. a digital computer would calculate the trajectory of each mouse at every joint, at every place where there is a decision to be made in a maze. that takes forever. now, a quantum computer sees all possible modes simultaneously. that violates common sense. common sense said you could not be two places at the same time. well, get with it. in the quantum theory, you could be many places at the same time. and that is the power of quantum computers. what would it look like? would my computer look the same? it is like a chandelier, but
