True, but the size of quantum computers setups have not decreased appreciably in 30 years, unlike the rapid linear size decrease of classical computers as they transitioned from vacuum tubes to transistors to semiconductors. Never mind the cooling requirements and vibration isolation needed by quantum computers.

The picture showing the vast array of cooling tubes and doodads say it all for me. This impossibly finicky technology will never achieve the promise of beating classical computers. Put it in the back of a drawer with the perpetual motion machine and call it a day.

So many python speed apologists. Yes, you can pour over your python code and given enough time and effort you can eek out another 25% improvement, but it's still much slower than the alternatives.
