Visiting the deep freeze at D-Wave in Burnaby, British Columbia today.
The red section is warm to the touch, but inside it is colder than any naturally occurring place in the universe.
Inside is one of a handful of 128-qubit quantum computers undergoing characterization tests.
What do we have here? If you want to work on the system simulation software, D-Wave has a volunteer effort underway, much like SETI@Home that has already contributed more than we could have purchased from a supercomputer center. Thanks geek army!
