In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

[@islawkinilaw8051]

Why low sound pls check ..

[@Zoza15]

And when can we expect Quantum computers for consumers use?.

[@rRobertSmith]

Excellent talk/lecture.....but exception...
(at time 7:36) the japanese have niobium doped fiber optic cables that are SELF AMPLIFYING for about 10 years or so now...

[@sigmapsicharlie]

Most people want to know how this is going to help them play Angry birds.

[@StevenArzberger]

low volume...

[@dazzapep5564]

Don't hold your breath, quantum computers have to be cooled with liquid helium, until we solve the problem of room temperature superconductivity, you won't be seeing a home system anytime soon.

2500 WHEN WILL IT END!!

Search for D Wave

1100 views! this is viraaal

[@rRobertSmith]

do the math via moores law and a graph.....6 years maybe 7 .......two to the 7 cheaper....than 50m 50m/2**7 =$20k USD but time sharing is about to be re invented/discovered

[@nmarbletoe8210]

the satellite model he holds up is actual size

[@MrN0nex]

Not sure if you think the video is pathetic for havin soo little views or the people are for not watching it :D

[@dunnobutwayne]

when you can afford super cooling at an industrial level :D

[@trdtdtd]

lol
