As someone who went to Texas A&M HISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS to Scott and his school! If he was super good with quantum he would go to A&M to research and teach! 

College rivalries are a hell of a thing lol 

Ok, I stand corrected. Didn't go further than the Tweet.

He's a physicist at UT Texas, and he has thus, near surely, a deep knowledge of quantum mechanics. Will order his book.

Yeah, I only had time to read a little of the article that the tweet links to, but it does give one pause...

Scott is the opposite of "people who understand QC the least". He has been dunking on D-Wave, IBM, Google, and others since 2008 about how bad their implementations were. 

But now, he says we have to take them seriously. That's not nothing.

Quantum fud is back.

The biggest FUD comes from people who understand QC the least...
