#Speedup
has special structure that the algorithm takes advantage of.

The new result seems to verify that this speedup was indeed special, not generic. On similar problems without special structure, quantum computers will *not* provide exponential speedup.

To keep in mind: (1) There can be cases where sub-exponential speedup still represents “a lot of speedup”; and

(2) Many smart people in quantum computing have long been saying that there’s important applications will be to chemistry and quantum dynamics, rather than cryptography etc.

We know that quantum algorithms can be faster than classical ones, and in certain special cases that the speedup is significant. Shor’s algorithm represents super-polynomial - practically exponential - speedup for factoring large numbers. But it’s been unclear how general that is, since factoring…

deepseek 4 squeezed a 1.7x decode speedup out of GPT-2 and we're not even done exploring

Yesterday, teaching my class a bit about quantum computing, I mentioned that there’s a lot we don’t know about just how much a quantum algorithm can provide speedup over the best classical algorithm. Later that day: we know more.

I got that vibe with the no speedup splash screen + like 6 different npcs in the starting area being like 'our wild areas are huge! Just fucking massive! So big!!'

TIL Hermes does not support async generators natively.

Refactor the code to use callbacks for a 29x speedup!

I can't lie when one of the only easy to find discussion places for this hack is reddit and the tiniest glance has me running down the major complaints being a lack of autorun and recommending you not to hold emulator speedup the whole time it kind of just reinforces the qualities I liked so much
yeah this game is heat

@selfhostedsi.bsky.social Once someone actually clocks that 2x claim at a full 32k window, we will see whether the speedup survives a real KV cache instead of a brochure run.
