October 7, 2023 - Saturday Morning Thoughts and Discoveries

 My morning time at home is precious to me. I get to sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee. My family has cats and a dog, I like spending time with them as well. This Saturday was no exception. During that time of “Waking Up,” I think about the day and what needs to get done. 

It finally got to be time to start my day, I started booting up my computer.  Anyone that knows me realizes that is entirely normal.  The Microsoft feed gets its turn to be initialized and the following headline pops up, “Quantum computers are fast becoming cheaper and smaller - and they could be coming to a data center near you very soon”, a story by Keumr Afifi-Sabet.  Then I checked the time it had been posted; it was today October 7, 2023.  I read the article and I have to comment on it on my blog.

In short, the article predicts companies having quantum computers mounted on their data store racks in 2024.  If you haven’t noticed, we are in October and we are only three months away from the new year.  This is what I had been saying all along and that was going to happen.

The article talks about IONq, a company I have been talking about from the start. The article also goes on to mention that the prices are coming down as well.  

Please take the time to read this brief article. The article just backs up what I have been predicting all along. Since my plan is 10 years until retirement or more, I hope to see a quantum computer on my rack in the school that I am a professor at.

I will leave the blog on for you.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post.

Welcome!

In order for me to continue teaching, I pursued a master’s degree. I chose to get that master’s degree in education and technology. During that journey to obtain the degree, I did a whole semester of research into Quantum Computing. During that research, I became convinced that Quantum Technology is in all our futures. It is closer than you think. Since my concentration is in education and I was teaching basic networking, I went on to think what it would take to teach quantum computing. During my Networking 1 class I would teach binary, the basics of today’s computing technology. Then I saw that Quantum Technology is based on Quantum Mechanics and I then panicked thinking where do I start? I am not even sure I understand it. This blog is dedicated to education on Quantum Computing and Quantum Technology. This blog is going to always be a work in progress. If you want to keep up with all the events in Quantum technology, please check back periodically. To the left you will find Blog f

  Hello My Blog Followers, I am sorry it has been a while.   It is the end of the semester and things are moving at a busy pace.   It is hard to buy out time to share information. I thought I would take some time and tell you what is coming down the road for the blogs and the information I present. The first is I am hoping to display some of the activities of my students from this semester: Microcomputer Systems and Network and Security Protocols. Microcomputer Systems is based on the CompTIA A+ information.   I have my students’ doing videos on the different subjects that we cover in that class. If I get their permission to publish, I will share that with my followers. The Network and Security Protocols consists of seventh semester Bachelor students and three Master level students.   All of them are going to be making videos on High-Speed networking.   Today’s technology is looking at making it standard to have at least ten gigs for data collecting and other technologies that
