Quantum Computing Qubits
Discussions revolve around the limitations of current quantum computers due to low qubit counts, the need for thousands of qubits for practical applications, and challenges like error correction and decoherence.

Doesn't make sense until we have at least thousands of qubits.
Needs waaaaaaay more qubits than exist in the world right now.
What interesting things happen at 50 qubits?
Qubits? Wanna impress me? Tell me about the great strides you've made in fault tolerance.
I am not an expert.The issue that quantum computers have is not so much that individual qubits get errors, but rather that quibits become entangled with the rest of the universe, erasing our ability to take advantage of any quantom effect. To prevent this, you need to very carefully contain the quibits to prevent them from interacting with anything apart from highly controlled manipulations. The more quibits you have, the harder this becomes. If you can replace this with quidits that have mor
640 qubits ought to be enough for anybody
More than 500 qubits is enough for shore's algorithm to destroy everything
What can you even do with 20 qubits?

Possibly a major step towards scalable quantum gates? Looks like it but I'm not an expert in QC.
