In the Realm of Quantum Computing, “a philosophical conundrum for visionaries.”
In the Realm of Quantum Computing, “a philosophical conundrum for visionaries.” Though young minds are malleable, and empty, the empty mind must be filled with knowledge, gain experience, and be given the opportunity to imagine. Albert Einstein is all about imagination; more so than experience; and those more so than knowledge. But he does see […]
