September 1, 2026 — The 2004 NIST Trick Every Quantum Roadmap Still Runs On

It's a quiet news day, so we're going back to first principles: why does a quantum computer need error correction at all, and how did a modest 2004 NIST demonstration of 'quantum backup copies' become the foundation every fault-tolerance roadmap still builds on today? We walk through decoherence, the no-cloning theorem, and the physical-to-logical qubit ratio that decides whether a quantum computer is useful or just a science project.

August 27, 2026 — IBM Buys a Rival Qubit's Home Lab

IBM has completed its acquisition of HRL Laboratories, pulling silicon-spin qubit expertise into a company that built its whole roadmap on superconducting circuits — is it a hedge, or just insurance? Plus: EuroHPC's thirteen startup picks, a trapped-ion fidelity fix from LLNL and NIST, Sabine Hossenfelder amplifying a Bloomberg piece on quantum hype versus cyber risk, and funding news from ColibriTD and Diraq.

August 26, 2026 — Dead and Alive: Quantum Computing's Credibility Gap

Bloomberg's Mark Bergen asks whether quantum computing is finally arriving or still running on hype — real fidelity gains from Quantinuum and IonQ and bold timelines from Scott Aaronson and DARPA collide with sky-high valuations and short-seller scrutiny of IonQ. Plus: NIST's detector breakthrough, Sweden's national quantum strategy, D-Wave's CFO transition, IonQ's energy-efficiency claims, and a fresh lattice-vs-hash encryption debate.
