Some things did work though, and I learned a lot. Some of what I learned is that computers and certain companies (and people) suck, but there's always a way around things that don't work.

“How may the compulsive programmer be distinguished from a merely dedicated, hard-working professional programmer? First, by the fact that the ordinary professional programmer addresses himself to the problem to be solved, whereas the compulsive programmer sees the problem mainly as an opportunity to interact with the computer. The ordinary computer programmer will usually discuss both his substantive and his technical programming problem with others. He will generally do lengthy preparatory work, such as writing and flow diagramming, before beginning work with the computer itself. His sessions with the computer may be comparatively short. He may even let others do the actual console work. He develops his program slowly and systematically. When something doesn't work, he may spend considerable time away from the computer, framing careful hypotheses to account for the malfunction and designing crucial experiments to test them. Again, he may leave the actual running of the computer to others. He is able, while waiting for results from the computer, to attend to other aspects of his work, such as documenting what he has already done. When he has finally composed the program he set out to produce, he is able to complete a sensible description of it and to turn his attention to other things. The professional regards programming as a means toward an end, not as an end in itself. His satisfaction comes from having solved a substantive problem, not from having bent a computer to his will.”

It's a shame that the press release for quantum computer investment has to be wrapped in "AI". Where the "race" has been reframed as the consumption, rather than production, of technologies.
In many ways quantum tech matches the UK's traditional strengths - big expensive important research with (let's face it) extremely vague plans for commercialisation.

Just finished "The Phantom Scientist" by Robin Cousin, translated into English by Edward Gauvin. It's a book I really enjoyed, although of course being an academic computer scientist it pushes a lot of my buttons. The idea of an "Institute" fated to descend into chaos, a systems expert tasked with slowing that process, and researchers whose results are a bit too effective for their own good is a catnip setting for me, and the points about epistemology although somewhat diluted are quite nice.

"LLMs work (somewhat) for coding computer programs. As everyone knows this is the highest form of human endeavor—unsurpassed by any other lesser activity such as project management, design, art or writing. Therefore LLMs will excel in every other field."
I really believe this is the crux understanding why so many programmers (including good programmers) fall for it in a way that can only be described as a cult, were any criticism is not only not allowed but reflexively is seen as either laughable or belligerent.
Anyway, LLMs are good* at writing code because writing code is easy and highly repetitive and doesn't actually take a lot of skill; unless it's novel ways to write code which LLMs cannot do.
Taking this as a sign LLMs can do other "lesser" activities is saying a lot about the hubris of programmers and not a lot of the capabilities of LLMs.

Zahlen, bitte! Schachmatt nach 37 Zügen: Deep Blues Silizium-Sieg gegen Kasparow
1996 schlug IBMs Deep-Blue-Computer Schachweltmeister Garri Kasparow in 37 Zügen. Der Sieg der IT über das Schachgenie markierte eine Mensch-Maschine-Wende.

And "free" also implies that the worker is supposedly completely free. He is free in the sense that he can sell for as high a price as he can manage.
Himself?
Yes, for as much money as possible. - Now, in this market, the computer replaces the best thing the worker has to offer: knowledge and skill. The machine takes over both, and he himself is degraded to a mere machine operator. His actual abilities have been coaxed out of him and incorporated into the device. Consequently, he has less to sell than before, and what he can still sell is worth less.
He himself loses value?
Yes, because he is not only robbed of the ability to provide bread for his family, but also of one of the signs that prove to him that he is human. Now he is simplified and transformed into an operator. (Almost like in Kafka, where a man is transformed into a beetle; Kafka is a prophet in that regard.)"

It’s really funny to watch a almost 15-year old Apple product intro and the specs for the computer are virtually the same as the specs for computers you can buy now
15-inch retina screen
512GB SSD
8GB RAM
USB3, MagSafe, HDMI, Thunderbolt, SD card slot
~$2,500 in 2012
