Hey AA. When I first saw this thing I tried to go about it like this… What is the SIMPLEST possible problem that could be solved with this thing. Not "can I break RSA" but can I do something EASY as FUCK. I really tried too see if I could find a way to use the ideas posted here to solve the easiest possible problem imaginable. 1+1=2 is too easy but what is the really simple one. What is the "Soft Lob" of Quantum Computing? If this thing is as simple as it appears then it likely could be done in one's head on a simple level.
Who knows, Maybe I am way off? Its the programming that keeps me from pursuing it any further. I just don't understand it and get sidetracked. Anyway, consider looking for the simplest possible solution to just make the damn thing work then expand upon that basic functionality?
When I travel I like to have a water bladder and a piece of black plastic. Its not pretty but it will make hot water when the sun is out. wrap the water bladder in the black plastic and put it in the sun. Easy money. Now one can easily expand up on this basic idea with pumps and hoses and circulation timers and insulated tanks and such. Hell, really smart guys have even made vacuum insulated water channels with super-flat black absorbers that will heat water to 100 degrees when the exterior temperature is below fucking zero as long as there is sun.
That fancy stuff is great but it is not fundamental. See if you can find the easiest problem that can be solved with this thing. Something fucking simple as hell that will be a proof of concept and then go forward from there… That may be an angle that will crack open the door.
I mined a little BTC in 2010. Not a lot but a bit. I have never touched my wallet but I still have it. Kinda like a bunker. I watch it daily. In the intervening decade I have learned a LOT and gone pretty far into that community in a number of ways. No one broke the blockchain by friend. Not yet. Chris is wrong on that front. No one even vaguely thinks that MAYBE it could have been broken in a different universe… Not one person thinks that. NOT ONE. This thing 'aint over yet.
AA, Ganon, Teach, Topol, PMA, 3Danon, Minecraft anon, Primeanon, VA, the ever-present Anonymous and more. We have all been on an adventure here to an unknown land. We have reached out into the unknown for a frontier that held promises that drew us in.
I was drawn in deeply by the exploration as well as the tremendous possibility for change. The world never really worked for me so change is always welcome. I hope, simply, for positive change. Others were drawn in for other reasons that belong to them alone.
This is the real true force that drives us all I think. Us HUMANS. We are driven by a desire to improve… We want things to be better. In the end that is what this is really all about. Making things better.
Well, you have all made my life far better. I am glad to have been on this journey with you all and I swear I will never forget it. Hell, I saved it all to pass it along as a great mystery to others in the future if the problem is never solved. I consider you all to be my brothers and I am proud to have walked this long and winding road into the unknown with you.
Remember, it is the journey not the destination. >>7288
