Beyond time and space

Chapter 1: The Experiment I had been working on perfecting my time-traveling device for months, and I had finally achieved success. I stepped into the device, hoping to take a brief trip through time. As I pressed the activation button, I was overcome with a sudden shock of energy and I felt my body being hurled through the air.    My time-traveling device was powered by a small energy source, which was capable of manipulating the laws of physics in order to create a stable time-traveling wormhole. To create this wormhole, I had used the gravitational forces of two black holes located in the same region of space-time. This allowed me to travel through time and space without creating a timeline imbalance.    The device was also equipped with a sophisticated navigation system which allowed me to precisely pinpoint my destination in time and space. Using this system, I was able to accurately calculate the time and location of my journey and ensure that I ended up back in the same time and

IBM today announced that it will soon make a 53-qubit quantum computer available to clients of its IBM Q Network. The new system, which is scheduled to go online in the middle of next month, will be the largest universal quantum computer available for external use yet. The new center, which is essentially a data center for IBM’s quantum machines, will also feature five 20-qubit machines, but that number will grow to 14 within the next month. IBM promises a 95% service availability for its quantum machines. The New 53-qubit system introduces a number of new techniques that enable the company to launch larger, more reliable systems for cloud deployments. It features more compact custom electronics for improving scaling and lower error rates, as well as a new processor design. The fact that IBM is now opening this Quantum Computation itself, of course, is a pretty good indication about how serious the company is about its quantum efforts. The company’s quantum program also
