  1. …when did we get *actual* quantum computers?

    I understand we’ve been making progress in quantum computation but I didn’t know we actually had developed technologies that run on these ideas. Am I missing something?

  2. But can it run on a quantum computer while the quantum computer is turned on and also quantum computer? 

  3. >If you want to play Quandoom on your PC, once you have downloaded the files from GitHub, all you have to do is drag the Quandoom.qasm file onto the simulator (simulator.exe). Please note that the file will take some time to load, requiring about 5-6GB of RAM.

    Not sure whether QASM emulation is that heavy, or the DOOM implementation is not optimized. Anyone know?
