September 7, 2026 — NEC Walks Away From Quantum Hardware

NEC, the company behind the world's first superconducting qubit demonstration in 1999, has halted development of quantum computer hardware — while continuing annealing and quantum-inspired work on conventional machines. Plus: a new record for single-photon flux, and the G7's fresh warning on post-quantum cryptography.

September 6, 2026 — Physics or Plumbing: What's Actually Blocking Quantum Computing?

A Sunday think piece on IBM veteran and ERVA co-chair Brian Gaucher's claim that quantum computing's real bottleneck has shifted from physics to engineering — pilot lines, standards, and workforce — and whether the error-correction literature and workforce data actually back that up.

September 4, 2026 — IBM's Speed Record: Real Fix or Self-Graded Exam?

IBM claims a 25x circuit-throughput leap on its Nighthawk r2 chip without adding a single qubit — we ask whether that's real progress or a self-graded milestone. Plus: Quantinuum courts Aramco, Jülich switches on a trapped-ion machine, Quantum Motion raises more silicon-qubit cash, and the G7 tells industry to stop stalling on post-quantum encryption.

September 3, 2026 — 100,000 Circuits a Second: IBM's Speed Bet

IBM's Nighthawk r2 claims a twenty-five-fold jump in quantum circuit throughput via a redesigned reset architecture — we dig into whether that speed actually narrows the gap to quantum advantage. Plus: PsiQuantum partners with Brookhaven Lab, Rigetti and Purdue speed up classical optimization, MIT redesigns the qubit, Quobly signs two European deals, and an unverified quantum-router claim out of China.

September 2, 2026 — The Backup Copy Problem: Quantum Computing's Oldest Fix

A quiet news day sends Brian back to first principles: why quantum computers can't just back up their data the way classical computers do, and how a 2004 NIST result still frames the field's biggest engineering fight today.
