In the Quantum Computing Waiting Room
Quantum computing is hailed as the next big breakthrough that will propel the world into a new and better future. Nevertheless, the challenges faced by those trying to create a universal, programmable quantum computer are daunting. Many analysts suggest we are at least a decade away from someone building the quantum computer for which researchers long.

Latest Breakthroughs in Quantum Computing
Quantum computers rely on quantum bits (or qubits), which are notoriously fragile. This fragility means that quantum computers are also subject to errors. Fortunately, researchers are working furiously to overcome these challenges. Every breakthrough step brings the goal of a universal, programmable quantum computer a little closer.
